Travel back in time to a town that predates even Dubrovnik on this historic sightseeing tour.

According to historians, the Roman tribe who settled Cavtat, which was then called Epidaurum, later founded Dubrovnik, after fleeing from Slavic neighbors and their hometown in the early 7th century A.D. You will visit the remains of this ancient civilization and have some free time to explore the seaside promenades and peaceful streets of Cavtat.
