Stroll the best-preserved medieval fortified city in the world with a local, born in the very heart of it. Get introduced to the major city sights, evoke the glorious past times of the Republic of Dubrovnik and, at the same time, experience the real heartbeat of less than 1000 locals that still live within the City Walls.
This small place, known for its diplomacy, commerce and shipbuilding, was a well-organized city. Almost every aspect of the social life was regulated already in the 14th c. Water supplying and sewage system, health service and garbage disposal service were organized and regulated.
At the same time, peek into the hidden corners, in narrow and steep streets, where you will discover a real life of a small community that still lives in the UNESCO site in ancient homes, struggling with stairs and crowds, coping with strict conserving regulations and demands of tourism, balancing between the history and modern life.
The tour can be extended for a walk over the City Walls.

We enjoyed a 2 hour tour with a local guide Vesna, who had extensive local knowledge and brought the history of Dubrovnik to life.
We would recommend this tour with Vesna, who also recommended other attractions to visit during our stay.

Wow! The best tour guide ever! Vesna has a deep, personal connection with Dubrovnik and has a very humorous way of communicating those experiences. She made the city come alive in a way that only someone who has lived there can do. We can’t recommend her highly enough!

Vesna is fantastic. She is knowledgeable and is a real local who grew up in the city and still lives there today. She was communicative in advance, friendly, and engaged on all our questions. Highly recommend her as a guide.

We did a 2-hour tour of Old Town with Vesna as the first part of our trip to Dubrovnik. This was the perfect way to be introduced to the city and learn about the rich history.
Vesna was very personable and knowledgable, we had a great experience! She also provided us with wonderful recommendations for the rest of our trip!
Highly recommend booking a tour with Vesna while in Dubrovnik!

Vesna was very knowledgeable and funny. She provided us with a unique walking tour off the beaten path, filled with lots of interesting historical facts and personal stories (she is one of the few locals left who was raised, and continues to reside, in the Old City in Dubrovnik).
The tour started right on time and lasted for a little over 2 hours.
As a local, Vesna also gave us some great recommendations for traditional Croatian restaurants frequented by locals — thus far, they’ve hit the mark.
Highly recommend this tour!

What a great tour it was! Vesna is very knowledgeable with local culture and history. She showed us many important monuments of the old town and also gave us great recommendations for other activities that a family can take later on in our trip. Our kids also enjoyed the tour. It was perfectly paced and tailored for our family. Vesna also kindly prepared some small gifts for our children at the end of the tour. I highly recommend Vesna’s guide service to anyone who are interested in the history, architecture and culture of Dubrovnik.

Vesna is the perfect tour guide for those interested in the history of Dubrovnik peppered with personal anecdotes about life in the Old City and living through the war. The tour with Vesna flew by, and if walking the walls of Dubrovnik, I highly recommend doing it as an add on to your tour. As we walked the walls, we were able to get a birds eye view of the city with additional information about areas beyond the walls. If we had time, we would have loved to have done more tours with Vesna. Highly recommend!
