Game of Thrones Walking Tour — Discover the Real King's Landing

Walk the streets, walls, and fortresses that brought Westeros to life in Dubrovnik's medieval old town.


The Game of Thrones Walking Tour in Dubrovnik takes you through the authentic filming locations hidden within one of Europe's best-preserved medieval cities. Led by a licensed guide certified by the Croatian Ministry of Tourism, this two-hour walk reveals how Dubrovnik's stone streets and ancient fortifications became the iconic backdrop of King's Landing.

The tour blends cultural history with behind-the-scenes storytelling, allowing visitors to stand exactly where pivotal scenes were filmed. A dedicated photo book accompanies the journey so you can compare each real-world location directly with moments from the series.

Beyond the television references, the route passes through genuinely significant historical landmarks, including the Fort of St. Lawrence, known locally as Lovrijenac, a 11th-century fortress that dominates the western cliffs of the old city. The walk covers moderate terrain across Dubrovnik's characteristic stone-paved streets and staircases.

Compare filming locations side by side with a curated photo book from the series presented by your guide.

See the historic pier of the small port in Pile Bay, a recognizable backdrop from the show.

Guided by a Ministry of Tourism licensed guide who is also a genuine fan of the series.

Discover how the medieval architecture of Dubrovnik's old town doubled as the streets of King's Landing.
