City walls are one of the must-see attractions in Dubrovnik. These 2-kilometer-long walls are considered to be amongst the best-preserved fortification systems of the Middle Ages in Europe. The good news is you can walk the walls completely, alone or accompanied by a local licensed tour guide. What are the advantages of this tour?
First of all, the bird's eye view of historical buildings and the Adriatic Sea from the city walls will leave you breathless. Walking the city walls of Dubrovnik is really a memorable experience (even for locals), which is why we recommend you to capture these moments on your camera.
