One Day in Dubrovnik, Dubrovnik, Croatia

One day in Dubrovnik is all that you may have time for. Whether you are arriving in Dubrovnik by cruise ship or combining holidays to Croatia with another destination, most of your time will be taken up inside the Dubrovnik city walls. They are spectacular and one that we highly recommend you visit and you must be prepared for the 2km walk. Of course, if you have time we would suggest spending at least 3 days in Dubrovnik ideally a week and include the surrounding areas as there is so much to see and do. Dubrovnik beaches are a must to visit during your stay as well. One day in Dubrovnik Croatia will certainly whet your appetite for a further visit.

There is a level of excitement when you first set eyes on the huge walls in front of you when you arrive at Pile Gate, one of the three entrances to the Old City of Dubrovnik.

There are 2km of ancient walls to walk around, a photographers delight, our recommendation is to arrive there when the gates first open. We entered through Pile Gate at 8.30am one morning in September with a view of beating the thousands that arrive from the cruise ships. At this time of the year, Dubrovnik is still hot so we recommend taking enough water for a 2-hour wander. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
