Dubrovnik is one of the most visited cities in Europe and arguably the most iconic destination in Croatia. The UNESCO-listed Old Town, the magnificent city walls, the crystal clear Adriatic, the medieval streets and the dramatic setting where mountains meet the sea — there is a reason people keep coming back. If you are planning a holiday in Dubrovnik, this collection covers everything you actually need to know before you arrive.
The articles here are written from real visits and each one comes with a YouTube video. The Dubrovnik Walls, the third most visited attraction in all of Croatia, explored properly so you know what to expect. The ferry and cruise ship port in Gruž, which handles over 1.2 million passengers a year, explained clearly so arriving and departing is straightforward. The bus station, also in Gruž, which serves as the main hub for getting to and from Dubrovnik by road — including the spectacular coastal bus journey from Split, one of the most beautiful bus routes in Croatia. And a fast ferry day trip from Dubrovnik to Korčula Town, passing the Elaphiti Islands, Mljet and the Pelješac Peninsula along the way.
Dubrovnik rewards those who go beyond the Old Town gates. The city is also an excellent base for island hopping and day trips along the southern Dalmatian coast, and the articles here reflect that. Whether you are arriving by plane, bus, ferry or cruise ship, or trying to decide what to do once you are there, this collection has you covered.
New articles are added as I continue visiting and filming Dubrovnik and the surrounding area, so this page grows over time.
