Privérondleiding door de stadsmuren van Dubrovnik – verhalen en uitzichten
Beschrijving
Wat deze ervaring echt onderscheidt is de persoonlijke benadering. Dit is geen gescripte groepstour, het is een privéwandeling op maat van jou, geleid door een lokale Gids die verhalen, context en inzichten deelt die je in je eentje gewoon niet zou ontdekken. Van het begrijpen hoe Dubrovnik zich eeuwenlang verdedigde tot het horen van echte perspectieven uit de recentere geschiedenis, de muren worden veel meer dan alleen een schilderachtige wandeling. Tel daar nog eens een flexibel tempo, zorgvuldig gekozen fotostops en praktische insidertips bij op en je krijgt een rijkere, betekenisvollere ervaring van Dubrovniks meest iconische bezienswaardigheid.

Reisroute
Ontmoet uw privé Gids bij de historische Grote Onofrio Fontein van Dubrovnik – kennismaking met de Republiek Ragusa en het strategische belang van de stadsmuren.
Begin uw wandeling direct vanaf het toegangspunt van de oude stadsmuur bij de fontein. Overzicht van het vestingwerk en de bouwgeschiedenis.
Het fort Minčeta domineert het hoogste noordwestelijke deel van de stad. Het is een grote ronde toren met een enorme kantelen, opgehangen aan stenen dragers. De eerste, kleinere, vierhoekige toren werd in 1319 gebouwd door Nikifor Ranjina.
Het Bokar-fort werd beschouwd als het belangrijkste verdedigingspunt van de westelijke zee en als landtoegang tot de stad. Het fort is ontworpen door de Florentijnse architect Michelozzo di Bartolomeo Michelozzi als een halfrond gebouw van twee verdiepingen.
Het fort van Sint-Jan (Sveti Ivan) is een van de indrukwekkende middeleeuwse verdedigingswerken van deze stad. De torens dateren uit de 14e eeuw en het hoofdgebouw stamt uit de 16e eeuw. Het fort van St. John's, vaak de Mulo-toren genoemd, is een ander belangrijk fort in het verdedigingscomplex van de stadsmuren van Dubrovnik.

We joined a small group close to the walls and our Guide, Davor, handed out headsets and helped everyone get set up. Everyone had already bought their tickets to enter the walls so it was quick and easy to get through the entrance. Davor was a really excellent guide, it kept us all intrigued and interested for the whole tour, which was over an hour. When we were hit by a rain storm Davor organised rain capes for us all and offered exit plans for anyone who wanted to finish early. We really recommend this tour, it was interesting and gave a great insight into the history of Dubrovnik which I wouldn't have learnt otherwise.
Fantastic way to see Dubrovnik Old City! Ermina was Incredible guide for my husband and I to learn about the city, the culture of Dubrovnik, Croatia and surrounding areas. Ermina was friendly, engaging and so well educated on the area! What an enjoyable and memorable experience! And SO much better to do a private tour than with a large group- highly recommend!
Dear margaretmP7099PI, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled that Ermina made your private tour such an enjoyable and memorable experience. We'll be sure to share your kind words with her. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back to Dubrovnik again! Kind regards, Maro Carevic Dubrovnik Walking Tours
Guide never showed up. After waiting 15-20 min at the meeting place, I messaged Viator who said they couldn’t get a replacement for another hour, which didn’t work with our itinerary. They apologized and refunded me, but definitely a disappointment and we didn’t get the experience we were hoping for. The walking of the walls offers beautiful views though!
Dear Kerri_B, We’re very sorry again for the inconvenience caused. Unfortunately, the guide had an accident on the day, and despite our best efforts we were only able to arrange a replacement guide an hour later, which didn’t fit your schedule. We completely understand your frustration and truly apologize for the disruption to your plans. Kind regards, Maro Carevic Dubrovnik Walking Tours
Our tour guide Josip Crncevic was so great. He made us really feel the city walls from ancient times😊

Dear Heather, Thank you so much! We’re delighted Kim made your first day in Dubrovnik memorable and insightful. We appreciate the recommendation! Kind regards, Maro Carevic Dubrovnik Walking Tours
The tour is exclusively on top of the city walls which gives a unique perspective of the old city, the sea and everything below. Our excellent guide provided not only a thorough history of Dubrovnik and it’s famous fortress, but also what life was like then, the many invaders and wars leading up to the fall of communism and the beginning of the breakup of Yugoslavia in 1991. We also learned much about contemporary life in Dubrovnik and Croatia as well. All this while walking up and down the 1,080 steps of the Walls Tour. Our guide and the experience were great. Our party of 3 highly recommend!
Dear Kent L, Thank you for sharing such a thoughtful review! We’re delighted that you enjoyed the views from the city walls and the rich mix of history and contemporary life your guide provided. It’s great to hear the steps were worth it and that your group had a memorable experience. We truly appreciate the recommendation! Kind regards, Maro Carevic Dubrovnik Walking Tours

Our tour guide Jelena was fabulous. She shared very interesting facts about the beginning of the wall as well as most recent history regarding the wars in the 90’s. She was very interesting, and had a great sense of humor. We would recommend this tour to all - especially if Jelena is the guide.
