Ambulatory Accessible Old Town Dubrovnik

Old Town Dubrovnik

Take a short drive to Old Town Dubrovnik, and let a guide take you through the architecture, landmarks, and shops of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Dubrovnik's red roofs and white walls have made it a popular filming location in recent years, and you'll see why with a trip down the Stradun, Old Town's main street. The impressive bell tower of a 14th century Franciscan monastery dominates the street's west end, and an adjacent pharmacy hosts a museum detailing the history of the trade. Take a last stop on the east side to check out the colonnaded exterior of the Rector's Palace and the city's historic synagogue before returning to port.

Ambulatory Accessible

This Tour is accessible for Sailors who can navigate a few steps but have mobility difficulties or is a companion for a Sailor booked in the Fully Accessible tour.
