Activity itinerary

Pile Gate
  • 20m
The Grand Entrance to Adventure Your family journey begins at the iconic Pile Gate, the main entrance to Dubrovnik’s Old Town. This impressive stone gate looks like something straight out of a fairytale—and for good reason! Kids will be fascinated by the drawbridge, ancient wooden doors, and towering city walls. Your guide will explain how this gate was once protected by guards and a moat, and tell exciting stories of sieges, spies, and secret passages. Learn why Dubrovnik was one of the best-fortified cities in Europe, and spot the statue of the city’s beloved protector, St. Blaise, watching over the entrance. It’s the perfect place to take your first family photo, with the stunning walls behind you and the adventure ahead!
The Franciscan Church and Monastery
  • 20m
  • Admission ticket included
Secrets Behind the Stone Walls Just steps from the main street lies a peaceful hidden gem—Dubrovnik’s Franciscan Monastery. While the adults admire the stunning Romanesque architecture and one of the oldest pharmacies in Europe (still operating since 1317!), kids will be fascinated by tales of medieval medicine, secret remedies, and the mysterious monks who lived here. Your guide will point out curious stone faces, ancient inscriptions, and the quiet cloister garden where time seems to stand still. It’s a moment to slow down, step away from the crowds, and enjoy one of the Old Town’s most beautiful corners. There’s even a fun story about a healing potion that once saved the city—perfect for sparking young imaginations!
Little Onofrio Fountain
  • 15m
The Magical Water of Dubrovnik At the western end of the main street, your family will discover the grand Onofrio’s Fountain, a 15th-century masterpiece that once brought fresh spring water from the mountains into the heart of the city. Kids will be amazed to learn how this clever system worked without modern plumbing—and they’ll love the 16 carved stone faces that each spit water (some with funny expressions!). Your guide will share a charming local legend about a "magic sip" from the fountain that ensures you’ll return to Dubrovnik someday. It’s the perfect spot for a quick refresh, a coin toss for good luck, and a fun family photo. This stop blends history, engineering, and a touch of local folklore that sparks everyone's curiosity.
Stradun
  • 15m
Where Every Stone Tells a Story Walk down Stradun, Dubrovnik’s most famous and beautiful street, lined with smooth limestone that shines like marble under the sun. This lively promenade was once a sea channel—and your guide will reveal how the city was built up around it! Kids will enjoy spotting quirky stone carvings, like the knight who never drops his soap or the famous “mask” face where brave children can try to balance. As you stroll past historic homes and charming shops, you’ll hear tales of medieval merchants, noble families, and everyday life in a bustling republic. Stradun is the beating heart of the Old Town—perfect for a relaxed family walk full of surprises, laughter, and great photo ops.
