Dubrovnik has long been Croatia’s most famous destination and instantly recognizable for its UNESCO protected Old Town with medieval architecture, quaint limestone streets and distinctive terracotta rooftops. George Bernard Shaw was so enchanted by this beautiful city during his visit, that he said “those who seek paradise on Earth should come to Dubrovnik”, as well as, famously, describing it as “the pearl of the Adriatic”. The endearing nickname has stuck around and visiting the city, it is no surprise to see why.
Dubrovnik was once a republic, a city state with a thousand years of liberty and history to discover. The culture, literature, painting, architecture, philosophy, science, music and diplomacy of Dubrovnik are an irresistible part of the cultural heritage of Europe and the whole world. Dubrovnik makes for an excellent full day trip from Split. Upon arrival to Dubrovnik, meet your expert local guide for a private walking tour of the Old Town before enjoying a couple of hours of free time to sightsee on your own. Before heading back to Split, your private chauffeur will take you to the top of Mount Srđ for breathtaking panoramic views of Dubrovnik and its neighboring islands. It is also possible to organize a stop in the historic town of Ston, famous for harvesting Croatia’s delicious oysters during this trip.
