Trip to Dubrovnik From Split
Meet your tour guide and embark on a stroll within the spectacularly high city walls of Dubrovnic, a World Heritage Site on the edge of the Adriatic Sea.
Take in the view over the old town and the glistening Adriatic is sublime from the top. Along with your Croatian tour guide, you can get a good handle on the extent of the shelling damage in the 1990s by gazing over the rooftops: those sporting bright new terracotta suffered damage and had to be replaced. The first set of walls to enclose the city was built in the 9th century and in the middle of the 14th century, the 1. 5m-thick defence was fortified with 15 square forts. The threat of attacks from the Turks in the 15th century prompted the city to strengthen the existing forts and add new ones so that the entire old town was contained within a stone barrier 2km long and up to 25m high. Regardless of whether you are visiting Dubrovnik for the first time or the 100th, the sense of awe never fails to rise.
