Dubrovnik sightseeing bus
Where to go from Dubrovnik?
Dubrovnik
is not only a fascinating place to explore in its own right but
it makes a great base for day trips throughout
southern Dalmatia. The Dubrovnik countryside is
replete with small villages that retain their folklore traditions.
Further down the coast is the resort of Cavtat.
Lying at the tip of Croatia, Dubrovnik is close to Mostar in
Bosnia-Hercegovina and Montenegro, which make
great day tours.
And offshore, lie some of the most beautiful islands in the Adriatic: Mljet , Lokrum and
the three Elaphiti Islands,
Lopud, Sipan
and Kolocep.
Organised Tours and Excursions
Why book now?
If you have unlimited
time and your own wheels you could visit all the above highlights
on your own but if your time frame is more cramped I recommend that
you book an organised tour.
Dubrovnik is fast becoming the most visited
destination in the Adriatic and summer months can be busy indeed.
Do NOT rely on booking an excursion when you arrive in Dubrovnik:
they may well be booked out! The following Dubrovnik tours
can be booked on line from Viator.
Why book from Viator
Booking from an experienced tour operator such as Viator offers a number of conveniences.
