Itinerary
Day 1
Meet, GOT Old Town highlights, quick panorama stops, and Mount Srđ viewpoint — tailored for a social group vibe with frequent photo stops.
Meet & Check‑in — Pile Gate (Dubrovnik Old Town)
Gather in front of the Dubrovnik Tourist Board / Pile Gate bus station for quick check-in, introduction to the guide and group ice-breaker. The guide will confirm any pickups and distribute bottled water.
Tips from local experts:
- Meet exactly at the Dubrovnik Tourist Board kiosk by Pile Gate — it's the clearest landmark and easy for drivers to spot.
- Arrive 5–10 minutes early to grab a group selfie on the Pile Gate steps before the tour starts.
- Spring mornings are mild in May — bring a light layer you can tie around your waist and comfortable walking shoes.
Kolorina Bay & Fort Lovrijenac — King’s Landing waterfront & Red Keep
Short drive/walk to Kolorina Bay (Blackwater Bay filming location), then ascend to Fort Lovrijenac (the Red Keep). Guided storytelling mixes GOT filming trivia with the fort's strategic history.
Tips from local experts:
- Best group shots: stand on the low rocks at Kolorina for a panoramic sea background — avoid the wetest stones after rain.
- Fort Lovrijenac involves steep steps — for groups, move slowly and take turns at the narrow viewpoints so everyone gets a photo.
- If anyone prefers to skip the steps, the guide can position them for photos from the lower viewpoint — let the guide know beforehand.
Old Town Walk — Stradun, Walk of Shame & Iron Throne photo-op
Enter UNESCO-listed Old Town, walk the main marble street (Stradun) to the iconic filming points where the Walk of Shame scenes were filmed. Finish with the tour’s portable Iron Throne photo opportunity and fun 'dragon' prop for group shots.
Tips from local experts:
- Stradun can get busy — for the best golden-light photos of your group, ask the guide to position you on the side alleys leading off the main street.
- Carry small local currency for quick snacks at Gundulić Square market stalls (handy for groups who want a fast bite).
- Be mindful of locals — keep voices friendly but not too loud; Old Town is compact and echoing, which makes for dramatic photos but can be crowded.
Transfer: Drive toward Franjo Tuđman Bridge (scenic coastal drive)
Short scenic drive from Old Town toward the bridge viewpoint — relax on the minivan and enjoy coastal views. Guide provides context about Dubrovnik’s modern infrastructure and viewpoints en route.
Tips from local experts:
- Sit on the right side of the vehicle for the clearest coastal views when leaving the Old Town.
- Use this short transfer to check photos and recharge your phone; guide will remind you when you’re approaching the bridge lookout.
- Keep sunglasses handy — the low morning sun can be dazzling on the sea in May.
Franjo Tuđman Bridge stop — modern panorama for group photos
Quick stop at the bridge viewpoint for sweeping shots of Dubrovnik harbor, Lapad peninsula and a unique modern-architecture contrast to Old Town.
Tips from local experts:
- For group photos, use the bridge balustrade as a foreground element — it frames the city well and keeps everyone together.
- Wind can be strong on the bridge; secure hats and loose items before stepping out for photos.
- This stop is great for high-contrast city vs sea shots — try a vertical framing for social-media-friendly images.
Transfer to Ombla Spring (Rožat) — short countryside drive
Drive inland toward Rožat to see the Ombla spring, the powerful karst resurgence that feeds the river Ombla — a natural curiosity and calm stop among the tour’s highlights.
Tips from local experts:
- This short stretch gives a feel for Dubrovnik’s mix of coastal and karst landscapes — sit on the left side for inland views.
- If anyone wants quieter photos, the guide can pause at a roadside viewpoint before the official spring stop.
- Spring (May) brings lush vegetation — great time for vivid green backdrops in your group photos.
Ombla Spring visit — natural source & calm photo spot
Short visit to the Ombla spring area to see the river source emerging from the ground — peaceful break and a different photographic vibe from the coastal stops.
Tips from local experts:
- The spring area is compact — stick together as a group and wait for quieter moments to snap photos without locals in frame.
- Avoid leaning on barriers — many are fragile or wet; follow the guide’s instructions for best viewpoints.
- If anyone in the group prefers shade, there are tree pockets near the spring — good for a quick regroup or snack.
Transfer up to Mount Srđ — road climb to Fort Imperial
Drive up to Mount Srđ (Fort Imperial area) — the ascent rewards you with one of Dubrovnik’s best 360° panoramas over the Old Town, the Adriatic and nearby islands.
Tips from local experts:
- Left-side seats usually give the best early views of the city as you climb — call dibs if you want that shot.
- If your group wants a more active option, ask the guide about a short walk along the fort ramparts for varied photo angles.
- Bring your zoom lens or use the phone’s zoom for island shots — the view compresses nicely from the summit.
Mount Srđ & Fort Imperial — panorama stop and story session
Extended stop at Mount Srđ: panoramic photos, historical notes at Fort Imperial and time for relaxed group photos. Guide shares both wartime and filming-era anecdotes that shaped the view.
Tips from local experts:
- This is a top spot for group portraits — ask the guide to frame you with Old Town below for the classic Dubrovnik shot.
- If your group prefers a fun activity, consider returning later by Dubrovnik Cable Car — mention to the guide if you want help arranging tickets.
- Spring afternoons can be pleasantly warm — hydrate between photos (bottled water provided) and use shaded benches when available.
Return & Drop‑off — Old Town / Pile Gate
Drive back to the Old Town for final drop‑off at Pile Gate or arranged central locations. Opportunity to ask the guide for local food and evening suggestions tailored for groups.
Tips from local experts:
- Ask your guide for a quick list of post‑tour group-friendly dinner spots nearby (they know which taverns handle groups well).
- If you’re planning nightlife after the tour, get the guide’s recommendation for a lively but friendly bar in the Old Town.
- Collect any personal items left on the vehicle before disembarking — quick headcount for groups avoids lost items.
