Wonderful tour!
We had an amazing 2-hour private walking tour of Dubrovnik’s Old Town and city walls with Mihaela, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. The tour was very history-focused, and we learned so much about the Siege of Dubrovnik, the city’s culture, and the people who have shaped its history. She brought everything to life and gave us a much deeper appreciation for Dubrovnik than we would have gotten exploring on our own. Mihaela was also so thoughtful and attentive throughout the tour. She made sure we had plenty of opportunities for drink and restroom breaks, and was especially mindful about keeping us hydrated in the August heat. That made such a difference, especially while walking the city walls! One tip for anyone booking a summer tour: go as early as possible! We started at 10:00 AM, and while it was a great experience, the city walls get BRUTALLY hot in the summer. In hindsight, I would absolutely recommend starting around 8:00 AM if that’s available. If you’re looking for a private guide in Dubrovnik who is knowledgeable, personable, and genuinely cares about making sure you have a great experience, book Mihaela! She was fantastic, and we learned so much from her. ❤️

First rate / 5 plus star guide with exceptional quality of service and knowledge of the area on multiple levels . Feme was a wonderful guide, she was knowledgeable of the city and country past and present. She gave us a lot of great tips to carry forward during the remainder of our time in Dubrovnik. We highly recommend using her as a private or group guide

Mihaela, our tour guide...
Mihaela, our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. She made the steps bearable, keeping the pace of the tour to meet our abilities. She shared the history of the wall but also talked about recent history and the revival of the City. We learned a lot and really enjoyed the tour.

Why this scores 73
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private History Old Town and City Wall Tour in Dubrovnik: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubrovnik.
How much does Private History Old Town and City Wall Tour in Dubrovnik cost?
+
Prices start at $130 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 History Old Town and City Wall Tour in Dubrovnik 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 History Old Town and City Wall Tour in Dubrovnik worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 73 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 62 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 History Old Town and City Wall Tour in Dubrovnik?
+
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 History Old Town and City Wall Tour in Dubrovnik 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 History Old Town and City Wall Tour in Dubrovnik?
+
Around 22 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 History Old Town and City Wall Tour in Dubrovnik 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, Panorama Zipline Experience in Dubrovnik, Dubrovnik: 7 Caves & Blue Cave Speedboat Tour (4h). 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.
