“We had a wonderful tour of the Old Town. Very informative and interesting tour. We had a wonderful tour guide, Devo, who was born and has lived all his life in Dubrovnik. He was such a lovely guy. We highly recommend this tour and were happy to have an early tour at 9am as it was very warm but not too hot at that time of day, so easy to walk around.

“2 great tours thank you. Both were very interesting and having the earpiece is a great idea as it means you don't miss anything. This type of tour can be made or not by the tour guide. We were lucky to have Davor on both walks as our guide and he was excellent. He got the balance absolutely right between informative and entertaining and his passion for the subjects comes through clearly. He was also happy to answer any questions he was asked regardless of the subject (e.g. the recent war, the siege of Dubrovnik or soccer) and is a real asset to the company. 10/10 for both tours. 10/10…”
