A fortress built in 3 months to spite the Venetian Empire. An island cursed by expelled monks — where every owner met a tragic fate. A city that survived a devastating earthquake and rebuilt itself into one of Europe’s most beautiful towns. Welcome to Dubrovnik!
This self-guided audio walk takes you through 15 centuries of extraordinary stories. Learn how a medieval fountain’s 16 stone faces were carved to honour its builders. Stand in front of a palace where the ruler was locked inside for his entire one-month term — forbidden from seeing his family.
The tour is available in 9 languages and works offline. Go at your own pace, pause to explore the sights, take that perfect photo and discover the real Dubrovnik behind the tourist postcards. A full refund guarantee means you can book with confidence
