Why take this tour?

Escape the crowds and discover a totally different part of the city walls! Explore the hidden medieval tunnels of the fort Minčeta with your local guide and learn about 15th century warfare and how Dubrovnik protected from its enemies. Did you know that the very same tunnels that you'll see on this tour were actually used as bomb shelters only thirty years ago? Listen to your tour guide's personal account of the 1991 war in Croatia and how it was like to live in a city under siege. We'll also take you to a fascinating underground museum of the old foundry where you'll hear about how cannons were made centuries ago. Not just that, you'll go where few people ever go - along the western bulwark and all the way down to Pile gate, high above and away from the crowds! You'll visit fort Bokar, a 15th century masterpiece of military architecture and hear about the political struggles of the old Dubrovnik Republic. Book this tour if you want a truly unique and different experience of Dubrovnik!
