Dubrovnik is an ancient city on the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia, encircled by well-preserved old city walls which can be walked along. The Stradun is the main thoroughfare through the Old Town, and was the area used for filming a number of popular movies and TV shows including Star Wars and Game of Thrones. The distance from Dubrovnik Airport to Dubrovnik is approximately 21km. Dubrovnik experiences a Mediterranean climate, with mild, wet winters and hot, sunny summers.

Dubrovnik is a city filled with history which can be enjoyed as a city break, a day trip from the coastal resort or even from one of the many cruise ships that dock there. The main part of the city is compact and easy to navigate. The narrow streets are heaving with restaurants and cafes that are a perfect place to rest after a day spent sightseeing. The best views of the city can be seen from the old walls or by renting a cable car, which will allow you to see not only the city but the spectacular Adriatic coast too. Most of the islands are nearby and can be accessed by ferry from Dubrovnik harbour. Due to its coastal location, seafood and fish dishes are a popular choice in most restaurants but many Italian and Bosnian restaurants can be found in the area too.

Dubrovnik has something for everyone, from families taking a break from their resort to couples and solo travellers. A visit to the old city is a must to experience Croatian history at its finest, and TV enthusiasts will love being able to see the setting of Star Wars and Game of Thrones.
