1. Take a walk on the walls

The stunning and sturdy Dubrovnik's stone walls were built during the 10th century, and there are 16 towers and an extension of 1,940 meters. They are worth visiting just for the incredible views they offer across the city. Do not miss the opportunity to take a romantic walk with your partner in the evening before heading to your private villa in Dubrovnik. It is accessed through the entrance that is located in the northern part, near the church of Sant Spasa. Take a guided tour and get some insights into the history that lies beneath every stone.

2. Dubrovnik at night

Dubrovnik has a very lively nightlife and a vibrant scene. The best place to enjoy is Prijeko Street, where you will find several terraces and bars with chic atmospheres to have a drink while listening to live music of different genres, including jazz. If you are lucky enough to visit the city during the summer, you can enjoy the Dubrovnik Summer Festival. Great composers, soloists and orchestras from all over the world take part in.

3. Take in the amazing views from the top

If the views from the walls were not surprising enough, take the cable car and climb to the top of Mount Srd, where the best viewpoint in the city is located. See the old city and the Adriatic Sea bathed in orange and red hues at the end of the day. It is one of the moments you will capture with your camera in a second, but it will remain in your memory for years.

4. Indulge in Croatian specialities

Dubrovnik's gastronomy is very similar to that of Mediterranean countries such as Greece, Spain or Italy, but with oriental influences due to its geographical location. If there are delicacies you should not miss trying during your stay, it is bouzara, a scampi stew, and cevapi, a spice of sausage cooked on the grill. One of the most divine lambs you can eat is the Peka, slow-cooked in a traditional pot in their outdoor kitchens. Patience will make it worth the while! And the icing on the cake is the sweet Rozata or the Stone Cake and taking a sip of the wines from the Peljesac Peninsula and the Island of Korcula. Don’t forget to pack some delicacies to take back to your villa in Dubrovnik.

5. Explore the island of Lokrum

Dubrovnik has a lot to see, but outside its walls, there are some fabulous landscapes to enjoy and seaside locations to see. Lokrum is a stunning island where you can see the ruins of the Benedictine Monastery and the Botanical Garden. The beautiful beaches are a paradise for swimming, snorkelling, diving or some sports on the sand. Awake your inner adventurer and explore Lokrum! Get up early from your villa in Dubrovnik and hit the sandy beaches before the crowds.

6. Welcome to King’s Landing

All the fans of Game of Thrones will recognise some of the landmarks and places used to film several parts of the famous HBO series. King’s Landing and its castle are actually Dubrovnik and its walled city, so any fan that comes to the city will feel like they are having a déjà vu! You can also have a tour to tell you more about the series and browse the shops. If you are lucky, you can find a John Snow mug, a Mother of Dragons t-shirt, some Starks or the Lannisters items.

7. Admire the tower clock

The clock tower on Luza Square is one of the main landmarks you can spot the minute you enter the walls of the Old Town. This is a nice tower about 31 metres high, and the Green Men are the bronze figures standing on each side of the clock. The hour is shown in a very special way in the squares at half height. Roman numerals are shown on the left, and regular numbers on the right. It is impossible to miss!
