Dubrovnik City Break

Dubrovnik: Kings, Dragons & Lions

Four days where medieval republic meets fantasy legend in one of the Adriatic's most storied cities


Dubrovnik city break brings together the living heritage of a former maritime republic and the iconic filming locations of one of television's most celebrated fantasy series, offering a rare double layer of discovery within a single compact destination.

The walled city of Dubrovnik spent centuries as an independent republic before becoming a backdrop for sweeping cinematic storytelling. Walking its limestone-paved lanes means moving between two distinct but intertwined narratives, one rooted in real Adriatic history and one in the imagination of millions of viewers worldwide.

Beyond the walls, the Adriatic coastline and nearby islands add natural contrast to the cultural intensity of the old town. The itinerary is designed to balance guided exploration with genuine free time, allowing travellers to follow their own curiosity at whatever pace suits them.

Tour Highlights

Climb Fortress Lovrijenac, known to fans as the Red Keep, and survey the old town and the Adriatic from its ancient ramparts.

Stand at the site of the Battle of Blackwater Bay and explore the atmospheric dungeon used for the House of the Undying scenes.

Take a boat ride to the island of Lokrum, which served as the exotic city of Qarth, and learn about its layered natural and cinematic history.

Explore King's Landing filming locations throughout Dubrovnik's old town with a knowledgeable local guide who connects screen to stone.

Enjoy a full day at leisure with optional private car rental and a driver or guide to discover the wider Dubrovnik-Neretva region at your own pace.

Arrive and depart with private airport transfers, ensuring a smooth and stress-free start and end to the break.
