Stay in a sobe (guesthouse) to get to know the locals better as you will probably be sharing a suite with the renter's grandmother. From your sobe walk into the Old city via the road that runs along the sea. There are great views and awesome swimming/diving spots off the cliffs. On the same road you will find an outdoor theatre that shows late night movies with English subtitles - a great night out if you're sharing it with a friend or two. In the old city, be careful not to slip on the streets as they are all made of polished white marble!! Grab yourself a gellato (arguably better than you would find in Italy) and walk the enormous wall surrounding the city - you will find some stunning views guaranteed. After you finish your walk, try your hand at jumping on the small white marble figure on the side of the wall (you'll know what I'm talking about when you get there). The point is to jump on it and try to rotate without falling off. Take your time enjoying this city. In my opinion, it is the most beautiful and kept together old quarter in all Europe.

When you are in Dubrovink - do not forget to go to the city walls where you can admire wonderful views over the city and the old town inside... Unforgettable....

Went to Dubrovnik via a cruise ship. Great view from the wall--expensive and a workout, but worth it! Cute stuff to see everywhere inside the small old city (1 mile around the wall.)

karta za staru luku je 50kn i imaš šta razgledavat par sati!
odlična pozadina za slikanje!

On Sunday afternoon don't miss the change of the guards at the gate of the old city - the guards follow a flute player as they cross the city..

wonderful city with historic old center

OK first, you're gonna need Kunas, which is the currency used in Croatia. Anyways, Dubrovnik is a beautiful and relatively small city on the Adriatic coast. It is relatively expensive, at least compared to the other Croatian cities and don't get a Hotel in the city, cause it doesn't have any beaches there. The best way is (if you have a car), to get a room or Apartment in some private house near the city (Mali Zaton for example) and drive to the city whenever you want. If you don't have much time, just visit the old city area between the city walls and go to some cafe there. You shouldn't need more than a day for that, and if you have some spare time, before sundown you can visit the city walls and walk on them all around the city to get some great views of the sunset... just make sure you go earlier cause they would be closed otherwise.  I don't know much about the nightlife, but I remember one club in the old city (forgot the name), that' also on the see (it has a mini beach), and it's small but really great, with a DJ and everything. There was a separate DJ outside on the beach, where you can actually see the walls of the old city and some islands, and it's absolutely beautiful, so if you go there make sure you visit that club.  Well that's about it. Dubrovnik is a fabulous city... have lots of fun, and take lots of pictures!!!

Old dubrovnik castle, which is just next to the biggest yacht pier is a must see place ! Its over (afair) 500 years old, but was recently renovated and looks fabolous, I had my yaw on the floor. Inside the castle you can find many luxury brands, souvenir shops, cafees, bars etc. All of them looks really stylish and have similar, traditional croatian look. When visiting this spot in the evening you can run across many young male/females looking for date (it's hard to describe it in words, but they are literally everywhere). Dont bring your car, parking there might drive you crazy, as it takes lots of time. Take a cab or rent a scooter which I would suggest as it's a hilly city with lots of downhills and hillocks and makes two wheels experience a real fun ! Visit one of the bakeries on the hills and wait for fresh buns prepared while you wait in line. Great smell :) :) Stay away from seaport, cuz its really stinks like a dead fish.

eat good and pretty cheap (but remeber we're talking about Dubrovnik) in "Mea Culpa pizzeria"

Old City walls are must see.Bring a lot of water.

Interaction with locals is easy,most of the people speak english so there will be no problems.

Beautifull old city, great to wander around through it's small streets, the city is build up a hill and with a wall around, which gives it a romantic atmospere
