We were taken to some of the places which were recognisable from films or GOT and our guide had a large folder of stills to remind us of the scenes we were looking at. Our tour guide worked on GOT and had plenty of interesting stories based on his first hand experience. Apart from being a film buff he also knew his history of Dubrovnik and Croatia. You could easily see the sights without a guide but on this occasion the walking tour was well worth it.

This was a fun activity! We did this excursion with our children, even though they hadn't seen the show and we all had a great time! Davor, our guide was awesome and did a great job of showing us the sites, with some Game of Thrones flavor and he was very helpful in providing us with some recommendations of what we should see while in Dubrovnik and places to eat. We would recommend this tour.

Great day with our guide who was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. He made sure we enjoyed our trip by giving us great tips on where to go and what to see in both cities. Definitely a trip to do if you are in the area of Split for a few days and want to visit other cities since it is not too far away. We recommend!

It was a great experience for us. Our tour guide, which is Davor, very funny, fantastic tour guide and he take photos as well. Would definitely recommend for GOT fans.

Our tour guide is friendly, kind and helpful. He was very entertaining and knowledgeable not only on Game of Thrones but also about Croatia.
