Dubrovnik Cable Car Tours and Tickets

Yes, visiting the Dubrovnik Cable Car is worth it—during the 3.5-minute ride, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of Dubrovnik’s red-roofed Old Town and the turquoise waters of the Adriatic Sea. When the weather is clear, you can see up to 37 miles (60 kilometers). At the top, there are shops, a museum, and hiking trails.

Yes, many tours include a ride on the Dubrovnik Cable Car. The Explore Dubrovnik by Cable Car (ticket included) combines the cable car with highlights of Dubrovnik Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, including Cathedral of the Assumption and the Onofrio Fountain. Some excursions feature the zipline ride from the summit of Mt. Srd.

The best time of day to ride the Dubrovnik Cable Car is before sunset—the golden light results in exceptional photographs. The cable car typically stays open until midnight; heading up late to see the glittering city lights is a novel experience.

After a Dubrovnik Cable Car tour to the top of Mt. Srd, you can visit the Ohrid Pearl Shop, which sells unique variations of Croatian jewelry, and the Coin Blacksmithing Shop. There’s also a war museum that exhibits photos and explosives, a hiking trail, and an ATV buggy experience.

Yes, you can book Dubrovnik Cable Car tickets on the official website. Some tours include tickets in the price, but be sure to check with your provider first. During peak season (June–September), it’s a good idea to arrange your tickets in advance to avoid long lines at the ticket office.
