Fully Accessible Old Town Dubrovnik

  • Old Town Dubrovnik
Take a short drive to Old Town Dubrovnik, and let a guide take you through the architecture, landmarks, and shops of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Dubrovnik's red roofs and white walls have made it a popular filming location in recent years, and you'll see why with a trip down the Stradun, Old Town's main street. The impressive bell tower of a 14th century Franciscan monastery dominates the street's west end, and an adjacent pharmacy hosts a museum detailing the history of the trade. Take a last stop on the east side to check out the colonnaded exterior of the Rector's Palace and the city's historic synagogue before returning to port.

Fully Accessible

This tour is fully accessible and can accommodate sailors who are unable to take steps or have a large mobility device.

Shore Things are fully refundable to the original form of payment. However, please note that Shore Things are only fully refundable if they are canceled within 48 hours prior to the booked Shore Thing taking place, unless stated otherwise in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section. If you fail to either (a) cancel within 48 hours of the booked Shore Thing (or alternative time period as may be stated in a specific Shore Thing 'Need to Know' section), or (b) show up for a booked Shore Thing, you will be charged for 100% of the Shore Thing price. 

If you make a cancellation prior to the first day of your voyage and within 48 hours (unless otherwise stated in the tour details) of your Shore Thing, you will be refunded to the original form of payment after midnight Eastern Standard Time (EST) on the day of cancellation.

If you make another purchase prior to midnight EST, after canceling a booking eligible for a refund, the credit from the canceled booking will be applied to your new booking. Therefore, you’ll only be charged for the price difference between the canceled and new experience. If you have remaining temporary credit left on your account after you’ve made another experience purchase, the remaining credit will be refunded to your original form of payment after midnight EST.

If you cancel a Shore Thing during your voyage and are eligible for a refund, a credit will be applied to your folio and not to your original form of payment.


Shore Things departure times and/or meeting locations are subject to change. We will make every effort to notify Sailors in advance via the Sailor App of any tour departure and/or meeting changes.
