About Tour Guide Patricia C.

I have been working for 19 years as a licensed tour guide in Dubrovnik , but also as a tour manager in Central Europe, so guiding is more if a passion fir me than a job. One if the things I enjoy the most about it is the chance to see same things differently through the eyes of my guests.

When in Dubrovnik I do small private tours , which allows me to have more personal, relaxed and friendly approach. It, also, gives opportunity to take people to places off beaten track, which is not possible with big groups, but it is available for on line guided tours.
