Fantastic tour- very informative! We enjoyed hearing about the history of Dubrovnik. We have a much greater appreciation for the sights around town.
Perfect for what we wanted: private, quick, customized. Guide was so nice and knowledgeable. Very flexible.
Great private tour of historic Dubrovnik with a lot of attention to detail. We would do it again. Hrovje, our guide, answered all of our questions and even sent us a bunch of links to additional guides and videos to further explain and answer some of the (many) questions we asked. We have done many tours but Hrovje made this one special.
We really enjoyed the tour. Our guide told us a lot about the history of Dubrovnik & showed us many GOT locaties. His enthousiastism and knowledge is amazing!
We loved the city, and the interesting stories you told us. We now know much more of the history of Dubrovnik. Thank you for the walk and all the tips.
What a fantastic tour guide Hrvoje is. We booked directly through his website for a combo game of thrones and history tour of Dubrovnik. He offers a private/small group tours (maximum 8 people). It ended up being just me and my husband (with our baby). Hrvoje took his time and his tour was filled with fantastic facts and trivia as well as some great surprises on the way. He patiently answered all of our questions with great enthusiasm and thoughtfulness. We took some great pictures, left with a great understanding of the city and made great memories. It really beats all the other tours where we saw a large group of people being led on headphones, where as we got a very personal tour. I cannot recommend his tour enough.
Hi, thank you so much for this, I really appreciate you taking the time to write it. I’m really glad you enjoyed the mix of history and Game of Thrones. That’s one of the nice things about doing these tours privately, it doesn’t have to be strictly one or the other. Even when people book a “history” tour, if there’s a bit of curiosity about Game of Thrones, I’ll happily point out a few filming locations along the way and share some stories. And the same goes the other way, on a Game of Thrones tour I’ll always bring in some history if people are interested. It just feels more natural that way, instead of sticking to a fixed script. It was really great spending time with you both, and your little one as well. I’m really glad you left with such nice memories of Dubrovnik, that’s always the goal. Thanks again for choosing Dubrovnik Quest 🙂 Best regards, Hrvoje
