cruisesusie Posted May 25, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Hi, We're stopping in Dubrovnik in September and are interested in walking the walls. I've been watching videos and it looks beautiful. Has anyone done this who can give me some tips such as the cost, best time to walk, where to start the walk, etc. Thanks in advance. Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare John Bull Posted May 25, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Cost is 150 HRK. Local currency or plastic. Main access is inside the walls near the Pile / Pila Gate, on the left. Ships transfer buses drop just outside that gate. There's an opportunity to come down about halfway round but I don't know if you can access from that point. Most folk recommend walking the walls as early as possible, to avoid the heat of the day, there's not many shady spots up there. JB :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dubrovniktravelady Posted May 25, 2018 #3 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Want to learn more about the city wall, here is what I wrote way back in 2011. Update, the entrance fee today is 150 kuna, credit card accepted, no foreign currency. https://essenceofdubrovnik.com/2011/02/08/the-city-wall-3/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGBoss Posted June 1, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 1, 2018 The walls were the highlight of our trip to Dubrovnik. It does get toasty up there, so the earlier the better. Great photo ops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marco Posted June 5, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Allow 1 and 1/2 to 2 hrs to leisurely walk and stop along the way to enjoy the views and maybe stop along the wall for a beverage or an ice cream. Best time to do it is very late afternoon, like 4-ish. We were just there last week and even the last week of May, it was HOT! Have a hat or umbrella to shade you from the sun.

marysb Posted June 6, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 6, 2018 Take lots of water with you- very pricy to buy a bottle on the walls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ukdeblarz Posted June 17, 2018 #10 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Yes, we just did it a week or so ago. It was incredible. Make sure you are super physically fit to be able to do it. We saw lots of older folks really struggling. Drink lots of water and wear very sturdy shoes. It is worth it!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
