Our tour guide was so knowledgeable - I loved every moment! It was a small group max of 8 people (ours had 4 total). There was plenty of time to ask questions. Highly highly recommend

Marko our guide was knowledgable, funny and engaging and made the history of Dubrovnik come alive! He lives within the city walls and shared expert historical information along with his everyday experiences and stories. This really made for a truly enjoyable and enriching experience! We very highly recommend him and his company-Dubrovnik Local Guides.

Marco was a great guide, we saw the entire city and it was so much nicer not being in a large tour group- in fact, we were the only ones! He made it fun and engaging with a trivia-like game and pointed out details in the architecture and city history we definitely would have missed otherwise. Highly recommend this tour!

We loved our small group tour with Marko. He was very knowledgeable and informative, and made the tour really fun with a little contest to test our knowledge along the way. The time flew by, and we came away with a basic overview of the old part of the city. Very interesting, entertaining, and highly recommended.

Our tour guide, Marko, spoke great English. He made the tour fun by asking questions about what we have seen and scoring points for each of us. It was a great way to pay close attention! He had us looking for all the St. Blayze statues and carvings. His knowledge of all the history of Dubrovnik was amazing! We really enjoyed our tour.

Marko was a wealth of information! We also had a very interactive game we played along the way. If I could rate him 20 stars I would. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Dubrovnik, took us to some out of the way places, and was very sensitive to my husband who had minor mobility issues. The best guide!!!!!
Response from Host, Jun 2024
Thank you! It's great to see that you enjoyed our Old Town Sights & History - Small-Group Tour, and that you liked the little game to make the history come to life :)

Our guide on this tour was Markus, it was very reassuring to learn that Markus is a local and has lived in the Old Town all of his life.
We arrived at the meeting point early to find our guide already there waiting and planning our education in an entertaining format. Markus would make a great School Teacher as he had a very entertaining way of keeping us focussed on the hi-lights of the Town History that he was providing.
As the numbers are kept low, the value for money of this tour is great as you are virtually one on one with each other.
We loved the tips provided for our individual needs on our visit to the City.
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Thank you, Julie! It's great to see that you enjoyed our way of delivering the tour - hope to see you in Dubrovnik again some time!

We had a wonderful tour of Old Town Dubrovnik with Marko. He was informative, engaging, and showed us all of the important sites in just two hours. He made sure the pace was not too fast for my husband. I can’t recommend Marko enough!

A nossa guia Lucia foi extremamente atenciosa e o o tour foi muito interessante. Sendo um grupo pequeno torna a experiência muito mais gratificante, já que outros tours com imensa gente acabam por se tornar pouco informativos. 5 estrelas, aconselhamos vivamente.

Muito obrigado!
