Encircled by mighty medieval walls, translucent turquoise waters and filled with timeless terracotta-roofed buildings, Dubrovnik holidays are dreamy beyond words. Enter through the gates of this UNESCO-listed city and swap Romanesque and Gothic architecture for High Renaissance beauty as you explore the city on foot to really get a feel for its charming culture. Spend your days wandering along the narrow cobbled streets, ducking into local bars and eateries for great food and drink, and finding the perfect outdoor spot in one of the many cute, cliff-topped cafes. Hop in a kayak to see the city from the water on a cool sea safari and extend your stay with a trip across to the idyllic island of Mljet.

What you can find in Dubrovnik that you won't find anywhere else?

Visitors have long been enchanted by the beautiful medieval city of Dubrovnik, recently awarded UNESCO World Heritage Site status. Dubrovnik has a remarkable history: an independent, merchant republic for 700 years until it was occupied by Napoleon, the city grew immensely wealthy through trade with the Ottoman Empire and India in the East and had representatives as far afield as Africa. Modern Dubrovnik is not only beautiful, but chic and cosmopolitan with a lively nightlife.

Narrow cobbled alleys line the main pedestrian street, the Stradun, and evenings are spent listening to live bands and free opera recitals, sipping drinks in local bars, or eating in restaurants lining the harbour.

The walls that surround the city form an ideal walking tour, with cosy cafes perched precariously on the rocks, and this is the ideal spot from which to see the sun setting over the nearby Elaphiti Islands, which can easily be explored from Dubrovnik on a sea kayak safari.
