Step into a city that plays two roles at once. Dubrovnik's honey-stone walls and terracotta rooftops have guarded a free republic for centuries, and doubled as King's Landing for eight seasons of Game of Thrones. This self-guided walk takes you from Gradac Park, where a royal wedding turned deadly, to Fort Lovrijenac's Red Keep towers, through Pile Gate's riot scenes, and along the harbour where a mother said goodbye to her daughter twice. Climb the Jesuit Steps where a queen's pride crumbled, cross into Qarth through the Rector's Palace, and stand atop Minčeta Tower, the real House of the Undying. Along the way, uncover the true history behind every frame: a republic that banned slavery in 1416, a city rebuilt tile by tile after war, and a fortress motto that still whispers freedom isn't for sale. Fiction and history, side by side, at every turn.

Two skinny calves once pulled a floating marble tomb up a hill in Rovinj that no team of oxen could shift, and that’s an important premise of this self-guided tour of Rovinj.

The channel filled in, making way for the tall, narrow houses you're about to walk past. Walk at your own pace as you play through our audio-guide app, following the old shoreline through Balbi's Arch, past the winged lions the Venetians carved into nearly every wall, and out to a chapel where a children's hospital quietly began Rovinj's tourism story.

Over 25,000 travelers have used our self-guided tours, backed by a full refund guarantee. A good fit for anyone who wants Rovinj's history, self-guided, at their own pace.
