Step into King’s Landing: The Ultimate Game of Thrones Tour in Dubrovnik
If you still hear the clash of swords or the tolling bells of King’s Landing, you’re not alone. Dubrovnik wasn’t just a filming location; it became Westeros. From Cersei’s infamous Walk of Shame to the battle-scarred Red Keep, the city holds the echoes of the Seven Kingdoms in every stone alley and towering wall. For fans of HBO’s Game of Thrones, this is more than a tour; it’s your chance to walk in the footsteps of Tyrion, Arya, and Daenerys. Whether you're climbing the Jesuit Steps or sailing to the shores of Qarth (aka Lokrum Island), these tours bring the world of ice and fire to life like never before.
Why every Game of Thrones fan needs to take this Dubrovnik tour
Walk through the real King’s Landing: This isn’t a replica. It’s the actual King’s Landing. Stand where Cersei faced the crowd, where Tyrion plotted in the Red Keep, and where the fate of Westeros was sealed. Dubrovnik is Westeros.
Hear stories straight from the set: Your guide isn’t just quoting lines. They’re sharing juicy behind-the-scenes secrets, filming challenges, and cast moments you won’t find on any streaming special.
Relive the magic scene by scene: Recreate Arya’s escape through the market. Stand on the Jesuit Steps like Cersei. See how Dubrovnik’s timeless beauty became the perfect canvas for one of TV’s greatest sagas.
Geek out in iconic spots: Visit filming hotspots like Fort Lovrijenac (Red Keep), Pile Gate, and the City Walls. Snap your own throne-worthy shots and relive legendary scenes in real settings.
Dive into real history too: Even if you came for Thrones, you’ll stay for Dubrovnik’s past. As a UNESCO World Heritage site with medieval roots, every corner of this city has a tale to tell. Epic, royal, and very real.
Choose your Game of Thrones Tour in Dubrovnik
Whether you want to stroll through the stone streets of King’s Landing, sail past the shores of Qarth, or hop between filming sites in comfort, there’s a Game of Thrones tour in Dubrovnik that fits your travel style. Here’s how to choose the right experience for you.
Walking tours for true wanderers
Explore Dubrovnik’s Old Town on foot, weaving through alleys that doubled as the capital of Westeros. With a guide by your side, relive iconic scenes at Pile Gate, the Jesuit Steps, and Fort Lovrijenac. These tours are ideal for those who love slow, immersive exploration, and don’t mind Dubrovnik’s famous staircases.
Sail along the Adriatic just like Daenerys once did. These tours let you soak in the coastal views of Dubrovnik while visiting filming spots like Lokrum Island (Qarth). Enjoy a relaxed pace with fresh sea breeze and optional on-foot explorations at key locations.
Short on time or not keen on walking long distances? A driving tour takes you beyond the Old Town to lesser-known but equally stunning filming locations like the Trsteno Arboretum and the abandoned Hotel Belvedere. Great for fans looking to cover more ground without the legwork.
Can’t choose just one? Opt for a combo that blends walking, driving, and sailing, giving you a complete Game of Thrones journey across Dubrovnik and beyond. Ideal for superfans who want it all.
