Fascinating tour with lots of historical detail - Fascinating tour, Davor is well-versed in the complex history of Dubrovnik and picked out interesting highlights as we made our way through the city. Particularly recommended if you're a history buff like me and want more depth than the standard city tour.

The best walking city tour - We were greeted by Davor and joined by one other couple, so felt very much like a private tour. Davor was excellent throughout with amazing knowledge of not just Dubrovnik but the whole central European history. We are certainly much wiser now ! Local details and hints and tips on exploring the area were invaluable and helped shape our next few days. I recommend Davor’s tour as one of the most engaging we have been on amongst many city tours.

Great Informational Tour - Lots of interesting information on the history and a little bit of architecture in Dubrovnik. How it came to be and developed as a city and how it fared through the ages. We were a small group (lucky to be just the two of us but that isn't usual) so we could easily ask our questions and he always knew the answers. l Highly recommend.
