Dubrovnik walking history tour
Excellent walking tour of Dubrovnik. Marija was extremely knowledgeable about the history of her country but relatable for those visiting. Easy to follow her telling of history as well as have time to look around and notice what she was pointing out. Small group of only 8 of us was wonderful and she was able to be heard without microphone. Her English is easily understood as she navigated the streets. With us following. Highly recommend!

I never got to take this...
I never got to take this tour. My tour was for 4pm, yet the tour started at 10am & I was never notified of this change. Therefore, I missed the tour completely
Response from the operator: Hello, we apologize for the inconvenience. As per tour information, a minimum of 4 people is required for the tour to operate, and on that day/time/booking, it was not met. Also, it states traveler should contact us 48 hrs before the tour to confirm tour details and starting time. Lastly we did offer a full refund, even though our guide waited for 20 minutes with other participants. given starting time was auto changed to the operating tour schedule. Nevertheless, We extend our apology for the inconvenience and offer to make that up next time you are in Croatia.

Great experience!
We took a two hour historic tour for Dubrovnik and we couldn’t be more lucky! Marija was super friendly and well experienced tour guide who namely immersed us into the history of Dubrovnik and this region. As she is a local she didn’t only provide us with basic information but also shared a lot of personal stories of her and her family related to the city. We saw all places in Dubrovnik we wanted to check out and Marija was never surprised by questions raised during a tour. Highly recommended tour for Dubrovnik! She is a lovely person who will make your stay in this amazing city even better! 10/10 :)

Great tour
Both the walking tour and driving tour were great. The guides were very knowledgeable and showed our group wonderful views of Dubrovnik, while making the history interesting. The driving tour brought us to places that had fantastic panoramic views as well (and our driver was amazing!).
Response from the operator: We thank you for choosing our tour and taking the time to review our guide and driver. We believe in quality and adding value to our guests' experience. We are happy we were able to do that for you guys. Hope to see you again in Croatia :)

Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubrovnik.
How much does Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $286 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dubrovnik usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dubrovnik is not rushed.
Is Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dubrovnik, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dubrovnik can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dubrovnik and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dubrovnik within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dubrovnik?
+
On Outty we rank every Dubrovnik experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dubrovnik: Game of Thrones Walking Tour, Dubrovnik: 7 Caves & Blue Cave Speedboat Tour (4h), Dubrovnik: Sunset Kayaking & Snorkeling with water &wine. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dubrovnik?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dubrovnik?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour?
+
Included: Local English Speaking Tour Guide; In-vehicle air conditioning; History walking tour of the Old Town; and Panorama drive to a Photo view point. Not included: Food & Beverage; Gratuities to your Guide/Driver; and Personal Expenses. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour?
+
Please look for your Guide Holding a Traveljaz Sign Outside Pile Gate - on Pile Square by the Amerling's Fountain. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Private Dubrovnik History & Scenery City Tour offered in?
+
