Dubrovnik has preserved its beautiful Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque churches, monasteries, palaces, and fountains within its late-medieval walled city.
Drive to the lower cable car station and board the restored cable car. Just a few minutes aboard the funicular will bring you to the top of Srdj Hill behind the city. The magnificent city of Dubrovnik nestles at the foot of the hill and is visible below. Make the most of some free time here.
The return cable car ride brings you to the lower cable car station. You will start your walking tour with the walk to Ploče Gate at the eastern entrance to the Old Town of Dubrovnik, near the Old Harbor.
You'll stroll along the Stradun -- the main street of Dubrovnik. Keep an eye out for the Dominican church and the 15th-century Rector's Palace, which was the seat of government for the independent Republic of Dubrovnik (abolished by Napoleon in 1808).
You'll also see the cathedral, Sponza Palace (notable for its columned courtyard with elaborate stone carvings), the Church of Saint Blaise, Onofriou's Fountain near the drawbridge, and the Pile Gate.
Visit the Rupe Granary Museum, which preserves and illustrates the cultural heritage of the Dubrovnik region. An archaeologist will enhance your experience by providing insight into the city's history and the importance of grain from the 16th to 19th centuries.
Finally, you will have some free time in the Old Town to explore further on your own before you transfer to the ship at the pier in Dubrovnik .
Please note: Use of an audio headset (included) will enhance your tour experience. This tour is specifically designed for guests whose cruise begins in Dubrovnik. The tour will pick you up from the Seabourn-contracted hotel and drop you off at the ship after the tour. If you have booked your overnight stay independently at a different hotel but wish to participate in this tour, you must meet the tour at the Seabourn-contracted hotel for pick-up. No other pick-up locations are available for this tour.
Please keep in mind that tours are subject to minimum participation. In the event of low participation, the tour may be cancelled, in which case we recommend one of our regular airport transfer options.
