Tripadvisor Robbo61: „Great tour given by Branko with amazing views over Dubrovnik and nice drive through the countryside and to Cavtat. Some minor confusion as to whether we had booked the walking tour through the old town (which we had) but this was resolved by the time we had driven back, where Ivona was waiting to give us a lovely commentary of the old town. Overall a very good tour at a much more reasonable price than similar tours offered by other companies. People on our cruise ship did very similar tours with other companies and paid over double the price. Highly recommend Ivo and his team. “ Read more

Tours By Locals Mary - Lou G: „On the very busy national holiday our cruise ship called at Dubrovnik, Ivo managed to avoid most of the heavy traffic & crowds to provide 6 of us (3 couples) an outstanding tour of a great number of different important, interesting sites—both in the city & countryside, where he curated many fabulous photo ops. He was a most gracious, charming, & FUN driver/guide, with passionate, thorough, insightful historical, political, & cultural information. We never felt rushed, even though we saw & learned so much!“ Read more
