Highlights
  • Brsalje Street - This is our meeting place. Your guide will be standing next to the Amerling fountain which is a rather common meeting place for guests and guides in Dubrovnik. The exact address is: Brsalje 2, close to Dubravka gift shop, outside of the city walls, at the place where all the tour buses stop and also close to the public Libertas buses (1, 2, 3, etc.).
    The meeting point is at Amerling fountain next to Dubravka restaurant. The guide will have a blue umbrella or a sign “Early Bird” .Very close to the meeting place is a lovely view, you’ll see a vacant square which will be in only several hours from the tour filled with many wandering visitors, groups… on our Early Bird tour, you’ll be most likely the only guests on this spot and have the square to yourselves, which is definitely a chance not to miss while you’re in Dubrovnik! On this tour, the early bird always gets the early worm (in translation, the best photos).

Additional Information

In recent times, Dubrovnik has surged in popularity, almost to the point of obscuring its authentic charm, especially during the summer. The essence of this tour is to offer you an intimate encounter with the city.

We’ll take advantage of the early morning sun to tour the old town.

While the town is still slumbered, we will navigate its labyrinthine narrow lanes to experience the genuine Dubrovnik, devoid of the regular throngs of people. At 8 am, when all the eateries are yet to open, you’ll see the town slowly waking up to the day’s activities.

Our exploration begins along the glossy main street, which is primarily deserted early in the morning, offering you a unique perspective of its splendor. Through secret shortcuts, you’ll discover history, myths, and oddities. During our walk, you’ll encounter all notable monuments and receive an orientation of Dubrovnik to aid you in planning your stay, and make the most of it.

Historic tour of the old town - The visit with Daniela was really nice. We were able to enjoy the city early in the morning with much fewer people. Daniela took us around the old town and we were able to discover the history of Dubrovnik. Recommend

An absolute must whilst in Dubrovnik. - Daniella our guide was just lovely and her passion for her city shone through. She was so informative and we learnt so much especially about the awful war in the 90’s which explained with sensitivity and compassion. I found it very moving and was delighted to see how this amazing place has recovered.

Fascinating - We loved this walking tour - it was one of the highlights of our time in Dubrovnik and really brought the Old Town to life. Our guide Petra was a Dubrovnik local who was hugely knowledgeable of the area, its ancient history, and everything leading up to the present day. Would 100% recommend this tour. It’s also an especially good way to see the Old Town and take photos before the crowds arrive.

Fantastic tour - Our guide was so passionate and informative about the history of Dubrovnik. The early tour is the best way to enjoy the old town and avoid the big crowds later on. Highly recommend this and try to do it when you arrive in Dubrovnik as you gain a great insight into the area and lots of tips on what to do during your stay .

Great info, a little slow to get inside the city - Great background info and history but waited/talked too long outside of the city at the beginning of the tour, especially as it is advertised as a "get-into-the city-early-while-it's-less-crowded" experience.

We loved Dubrovnik and the Early Bird tour! - We enjoyed our tour very much. Our guide was very knowledgeable and took his time showing us around and telling interesting stories about Dubrovnik’s history! We loved that it was a small group of 5 of us - easy to hear and interact. We also liked the time and length of the tour which gave us time to explore more on our own. He also was kind enough to share good places to eat! We loved Dubrovnik! - Dave and Julie
