Every city in Europe probably has an "Old Town" but this is one of the best . Good shopping , restaurants are not as bad as a lot of people say . Lots of good energy from young people .

Although I am not up with all the history, I thoroughly enjoyed wandering around the town. Best not to go on a weekend as it is very crowded. Also, the market is different on Sundays

I never knew about the country of the Republic of Croatia until recently. Croatia is located in Central Europe – on the right side of Adriatic Sea is a democratic parliamentary republic. They expect to join the European Union with full membership in July 2013. We visited Dubrovnik – a city on the Adriatic Sea coast of Croatia. They will... More

I booked a Walking tour which is essential if you enjoy being shown things and places that you may otherwise miss. Go early morning to miss the crowds, but also check online the cruise ship itineraries, as the day I went there was only 1 small ship in which cut down on the crowds.

We stayed in old town and loved it. Strolling through the uncrowded back streets was great. Avoid the busy stradum and squares

We took a bus no 6 from the Posta Lapad. This gets very crowded indeed. We saw the Old Town by doing a half day walking tour with Elite Agency. This tour was purchased with British Airways. Inside, we visited the Jewish Museum and the Rector's Palace. We also visited a couple of churches. Dubrovnik was formerly the Republic of... More

The old town is nice but very touristy. There are a lot of souvenir shops but also a lot of bars and cafes and we found a lovely Irish bar called Karaka with nice staff. There are some museums and churches which are well worth a visit and some nice looking restaurants

The Old Town was a short bus ride away from our apartment within the Importanne Resort and the visit was one of the highlights of our trip. There are ample restaurants, shops and bars and we were pleased to note that the prices were pretty reasonable throughout. The City Walls experience is a must if you are fit enough and... More
