Top 10 Things to do Good for Big Groups in Dubrovnik, Dalmatia

September 4, 2021 Kelli Reichel

Dubrovnik has recovered from the war damage it suffered during the 1990s, and visitors have returned to this tranquil city. Nestled between the Adriatic and the Dinaric Alps, it’s an accessible and affordable city break for many European travelers. The pedestrian-only Old Town is especially charming.

Zarkovica Animal Shelter

Reviewed By jdbruk - Shenyang, China

I visited on a nice sunny day. This outdoor facility is a spartan compound, lots of dogs and only two volunteers. Both were busy, but accessible to my observations and a few questions I had... a few stories about a few of the dogs and even new puppies! There is the genuine love for the animals there. I kept my visit to a little bit over an hour because I did not wish to affect any time constraints on them... the dogs come first. I just wanted to enjoy this day and make a few of the dogs happy with some attention. After my departure, I checked out the Zarkovica website.. needless to say, the homepage floored me. The photo is of the shelter in Winter... with the caption, "The Temporary Home For Over Three Hundred Dogs In Dubrovnik..". I take those few words as part of their mission statement. I hope their success! Every Tripadvisor pic is happy people, happy dogs, sunshine & smiles. I was thinking of all the dogs there.. maybe fortunate in survival but are damn cold in the Winter. The welfare of the dogs depends on the time and care of these volunteers. Give generously, do what you can, volunteer your time, help them.. the dogs, the volunteers will love you for it, & of course you will feel better too & be a much better person for it.

Winery Botaro

Enjoy local food and wine in a hidden gem in Konavle valley. Taste our wines with a traditional Dalmatian plate(prosciutto, cheese, ham..) and also with homemade liqueurs-sage liqueur, cherry brandy, and a special one-wine liqueur! Don't forget to take a camera, just relax and enjoy it!

Reviewed By Andy_from_Wirral - Upton, United Kingdom

This family run winery is located a bit off the beaten track. About 26 km south of Dubrovnik but only 6.4 km from our villa in Ljuta. After a few days of glorious madness that is Dubrovnik old town, a visit to Winery Botaro was like an oasis of calm. Peaceful on the slopes of the Dinaric Alps, surrounded by grape vines, the Winery has some shaded wooden tables outside the main building. Next to the tables is the vineyard shop which is set out like a market stall. There is also a very nice inside area also with wooden tables. These tables are where the magic happens. On offer is a selection of liqueurs, wines, sugared fruit peel, cold meats, cheeses and salads. Served by the owners, and family, all produce was beautifully presented and really tasty. Totally authentic Croatian food and drink, made in a completely traditional way. It was a pleasure to visit these friendly and welcoming people. Highly recommended.

Dubrovnik Beer Company

We are Dubrovnik’s leading brewery with a craft soul and plans for World domination. Come down to our Brewery, to see first hand how craft beer magic is made and drink some amazing beer straight from the source. Wellcome!!!

Reviewed By BoSox0407 - Marietta, United States

Craft beer is still spotty depending on where you are in Europe, but Croatia seems to be embracing the trend, as they have a lot of craft brewers opening up shop. DBC is the first craft brewery in Dubrovnik, and it is conveniently located right across the street from the cruise terminal (literally a 5 minute walk back to the ship). It's a perfect way to end the day after walking the walls and getting some local grub. We showed up right at 4pm when they were to open, and the bartender was a bit late opening up shop (though he knew we were American because we expected them to be open at 4...haha). Their beers are all enjoyable, with the best of the bunch being the special New England style IPA they had on draft (a collab with another local homebrewer, brewed with local citrus). Their lager was also a group favorite. The best beer they had on draft was a barrel aged porter from that same collab brewer. It was excellent! If you're a beer nerd, don't expect world-class offerings. With that said, none of the beer was even remotely disappointing. The bartender was really friendly and informative too. People of Croatia learn English in school, so there wasn't any type of language barrier. The conversation was great, and he even sent us off with a few unexpected complimentary souvenirs from our visit. Such a nice, chill environment to spend an hour or two. We will definitely go back when we return to the area. As a note, they don't have food available but I believe they are OK if you bring food in to enjoy with a beer. Don't quote me on that though.

Lokrum Island

Reviewed By Likestotravel_italy

Amazing island, with plenty of things to do and discover: botanical garden, Dead Sea, olive groves, beautiful views, with many peacocks and rabbits around, old Benedictine monastery, exhibition and info on Game of Thrones as well. Very nice playground and volleyball/ soccer playgrounds. Don’t forget to bring your swimwear: you have many places to take a refreshing bath on the rocks (and showers as well). We arrived with our sailing boat and moored in the southern bay, there are boats from Dubrovnik harbor departing every now and then to reach the island!

Fort Lovrijenac

Reviewed By LucyFelthouse

Entrance here is included in your ticket if you have walked the city walls. It's a little bit of a trek to get here from the main city, so be aware of that if you have mobility issues, but it's well worth it. You pass stunning scenery on the way (and stuff you'll recognise if you're a Game of Thrones fan), and the fort itself is fascinating and provides amazing views back towards the city and over the bay/sea. Definitely worth checking out.

Minceta Fortress

Reviewed By IN_Travelers47906 - West Lafayette, United States

An interesting landmark along your wall walk with wonderful views of all of Old Town. If you begin the counterclockwise wall walk from near Pile Gate, you will want to keep looking back for views of Fort Minceta as you walk away from it. Once you have almost completed your circumnavigation of the wall, Fort Minceta will be the last landmark you will come to before returning to your starting point.
