Dubrovnik Sightseeing tour
Full day tour / Half day tour
Dubrovnik, treasure - trove of cultural - historical monuments that were created throughout its thousand-year existence, has become one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. In the past, it was a City-Republic, and alongside Venice one of the most famous cultural-economic centers on the Mediterranean. In more recent times, it has become the center of modern cultural and tourist events: a city of summer festivals – an international parade of top musical and theatrical achievements, a city of museums and galleries. These values have turned Dubrovnik into a place that offers a rich selection of various experiences and excitement, but also a complete holiday in a quiet and calming, mild Mediterranean ambience and wonderful seaside landscapes.
