Dubrovnik is a beautiful city with a Mediterranean climate, so make sure to bring a hat and sunscreen as well as lightweight clothing. While the Croatian Kuna was the currency of choice until recently, the country has switched to the Euro recently so you don’t have to worry about currency conversion. 

Learning some basic Croatian phrases is also a good idea, although many people do speak basic English. You should also respect the city and especially its old walls as it is an official UNESCO World Heritage site and damaging any site will incur hefty fines and perhaps even jail time. 

Yes, the city is very walkable, and in fact parts of the old city center are zoned as pedestrian only. You can very easily enjoy great walking experiences of the city, just be sure to bring some comfortable shoes.

Dubrovnik enjoys a pleasant climate year round, however the peak tourist season is during the summer months (June - August). This is also the hottest time of year, so be prepared for the heat as well as potential crowds, but this is also arguably the best time of year to visit as many fun festivals take place during the summer. If you want some milder weather and slightly reduced tourist numbers, aim for spring (March - May) or autumn (September - November). Winter time is obviously also an option, but things can get a bit more chilly. 

The city is generally safe for tourists and major crime is rare, though pickpockets are always a possibility no matter where you go. Don’t flaunt your valuables and keep important documents in a safe place if possible. As long as you stay vigilant of your surroundings and don’t wander around late at night by yourself you should have no issues here. It’s also important to watch for traffic as the streets can get congested and to only use officially sanctioned taxis.

Most places in Dubrovnik will accept major credit cards and even app-based payment methods, especially hotels and restaurants. However, smaller shops and markets may not, so it’s also a good idea to keep some cash on you (Euros).

Having a private tour guide accompany you will help ensure you get the most out of your Dubrovnik tour experience. Our guides can not only take you to the best spots, use their experience as locals to show you the country’s hidden gems, and generally take care of details such as transportation, scheduling, and travel recommendations.
