Dubrovnik Old Town and Ston Oyster Tour from Split
Walk the ancient walls of a UNESCO-listed city and taste the freshest oysters on the Adriatic coast.
This full-day Dubrovnik guided tour from Split combines a professionally led walk through one of Europe's best-preserved medieval cities with free time to explore independently and a stop in Ston to sample the region's celebrated oysters. The journey covers some of the most scenic stretches of the Dalmatian coast, making the travel itself part of the experience.
Departing from Split aboard a comfortable air-conditioned bus, the route south follows the Adriatic shoreline past villages, bays, and the Elaphiti Islands visible offshore. Stops along the way can be arranged with the driver to allow passengers to photograph the coastline or simply stretch their legs.
Upon reaching Dubrovnik, a local professional guide leads a 90-minute walking tour through the historic core, covering major landmarks including Stradun, the Franciscan Monastery, the Rector's Palace, Lovrijenac Fortress, and the renowned city walls. The tour is rated easy in difficulty, making it suitable for most fitness levels.
After the guided segment, approximately four hours of free time allow visitors to ride the cable car to Mount Srd, walk a section of the city walls, swim at a nearby beach, or sit down to a meal at a local restaurant. On the return journey, the group stops in Ston, a small coastal town famous for its oyster farming, for a tasting before heading back to Split.
