Would it be fun to look at the Old City of Dubrovnik and its city walls as ancient sailors saw them centuries ago? Well, to be honest, nothing has changed over the centuries thanks to the diplomatic abilities of Dubrovnik’s residents. Dubrovnik’s Old City has been successfully kept authentic and preserved, with only two catastrophes occurring: the great earthquake in 1667 and the Homeland War in 1991-1995. Our skipper will tell you more on our Dubrovnik City Walls Panorama Boat Cruise.
He will cruise slowly around the historic city walls and St. Lawrence Fortress, allowing you to admire the views of this UNESCO World Heritage site in the best way. We will also cruise around Lokrum Island, where you can marvel at the emerald green color of the sea and discover why Lokrum is often mentioned as a cursed island.
Behind the island, we will enter a hidden cave by boat to admire the cave and take photos, ensuring our tour won’t be soon forgotten. On our cruise along the coastline of Dubrovnik, we will see Villa Sheherezade, where famous football player Cristiano Ronaldo stayed, along with many politicians and some movie stars.
A Middle Eastern artist constructed the villa in the 18th century and features a beautiful oriental building style. As we enjoy the view of many beautiful villas and hotels near the Old City, our next sight will be a beach inside a large cave named Betina. The nickname Betina belonged to our famous Dubrovnik scientist Marin Getaldić, who conducted experiments in the cave.
We conclude our tour with the structure that was used as the first quarantine in Europe, named Lazareti. Lazareti is a Latin word that stands for quarantine.
When the crew of the Game of Thrones TV series saw the beauty of Dubrovnik’s Old City, the first thing they said was: “This amazing city will be the capital King’s Landing in our series.” If you are a fan of Game of Thrones, you will see Blackwater Bay, the Red Keep, the place where Sansa and Littlefinger talked, the arena where the fight between Oberon and the Mountain happened, and the park where Joffrey was poisoned.
The duration of the cruise will be 50 minutes to 1 hour at the longest. As directors of series such as Vikings, Templars, Game of Thrones, Star Wars, and movies like Robin Hood, The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, and the Nicolas Cage movie chose the Old City walls of Dubrovnik and the Old City as a star in their works, I hope your choice will be to enjoy them with us on our Dubrovnik City Walls Panorama Boat Cruise. Let’s make memories together.
