There is really no place like Dubrovnik, personally to me. Walking into the Old Town, it feels as though time has stopped and we have walked into a place frozen in time. With the city walls still up and as majestic as ever, the city promises to sweep you off your feet. Here are some unique experiences that you definitely should not miss!

As a huge fan of the TV show Game of Thrones, a tour based on the show is a must-do! Explore and admire Dubrovnik through the lenses of the show where you can see how the city inspired the fantastical city of King’s Landing. With the variety of tours you can go to, choosing one will not be a problem!

Want to get the best view during sunset? Make sure to get on the cable car and get yourself to Mount Srd which looms over the Old Town. The panorama that you will get from the top of the mount will blow your mind as the Adriatic on the horizon glistens. How else would you enjoy one of the world’s beautiful cities?

Dubrovnik throws some of the best parties during the summer so if you love fun, especially in the sun, then being there during Dubrovnik’s Summer Festival would make your trip unforgettable. This 47 days long cultural bash includes music, theatre, opera and dance around the Old Town and has been brought back every year for more than 60 years! Most of these performances are free so you can enjoy them without worrying about a hole in your wallet.

Amazingly, while holding the title of Europe’s oldest pharmacy, it is still a working place for the locals. Located within the beautiful complex of the Franciscan Monastery, you can find the Old Pharmacy Museum in the courtyard. There are also old instruments which you can marvel over that were used back in the Ragusan era.
