  • Get behind-the-scenes insight: Some guides were extras or part of the production team and share exclusive filming stories, on-set secrets, and local legends tied to the series.
  • Pose on the Iron Throne: End your tour at the Ethnographic Museum, where you can sit on a replica Iron Throne and snap your own royal photo.
  • Upgrade with Lokrum Island: Extend your experience with a boat ride to Lokrum, the real-life Qarth. Explore lush gardens, the throne room, and even peacocks roaming the grounds.

What to expect on a Game of Thrones walking tour in Dubrovnik

Follow in the footsteps of kings, queens, and faceless men as your guide takes you through the exact spots where key Game of Thrones scenes were filmed. From the riot outside Pile Gate to Tyrion’s battle planning in Fort Lovrijenac, you'll visit dramatic backdrops and learn how the show transformed everyday corners of Dubrovnik into the heart of Westeros. You’ll hear on-set stories, spot familiar angles from iconic scenes, and wrap up your walk with a photo on the Iron Throne. Choose the extended version to visit Lokrum Island, the real-world Qarth, with its monastery gardens and throne room exhibition.

Highlights covered on your Game of Thrones walking tour

Pile Gate (Entrance to King’s Landing)

Start your journey where many characters entered and exited the capital. This iconic gate featured in key scenes like Jaime Lannister’s return and the riot sparked by King Joffrey. Your guide will help you imagine the chaos and tension that once filled these very steps.

Fort Lovrijenac (The Red Keep)

This 11th-century fortress became the Red Keep, home to the Iron Throne and the Lannister family. Walk through filming spots used in Joffrey’s name day tournament and Cersei’s most calculated moves. The sweeping views from the top match what you saw on screen.

Kolorina Bay (Blackwater Bay)

This picturesque cove appeared during Myrcella’s departure to Dorne and Stannis’s Blackwater Bay assault. The tranquil setting contrasts sharply with the drama it hosted. Stand at the edge of the water as your guide brings the scenes to life.

Jesuit Staircase (Walk of Shame route)

Walk down the exact stairs where Cersei’s infamous Walk of Atonement took place. This Baroque staircase was transformed into a crowded, hostile path for one of the show’s most talked-about scenes. Learn how the production recreated the tension with props, extras, and clever angles.

Old Town Alleys and Rector’s Palace (Markets and streets of King’s Landing)

Wander through stone-paved alleys and grand courtyards that stood in for everyday life in King’s Landing. Arya’s training with the Faceless Men and many street scenes were filmed in this maze of passageways. Your guide will point out exact angles used in the show.

Ethnographic Museum Dubrovnik (Iron Throne room)

The tour ends with a fan-favorite moment. Visit the museum where HBO’s replica Iron Throne is displayed and snap a photo as ruler of the Seven Kingdoms. This is your chance to sit where kings and queens once ruled, at least on screen.

Lokrum Island (Qarth) - optional upgrade

Lokrum Island played the part of Qarth, the wealthy trading city where Daenerys met the Thirteen and declared her rise to power. On the extended tour, you’ll take a boat ride to this lush island, explore its botanical gardens and ancient monastery, and see the throne room exhibit.

Visitor Tips

  • Wear comfortable shoes as the tour involves walking on uneven cobblestone streets and climbing steps.
  • Bring sun protection. Dubrovnik can be hot and sunny, so carry sunscreen, a hat, and a water bottle.
  • Arrive early at the meeting point to avoid missing your group. Most tours start promptly, and late arrivals may not be accommodated.
  • The entrance to Fort Lovrijenac (the Red Keep) is not included in the tour and must be purchased separately for around €15, unless you have a valid City Walls ticket (used within 72 hours) or a Dubrovnik Pass, which grants free access.
  • Keep your camera handy. You’ll come across several iconic filming spots and panoramic views worth capturing.
  • Be mindful of local customs and follow all site-specific rules, especially at historical landmarks.
  • Use restrooms before the tour starts, as there may not be many opportunities during the walk.
  • If you're visiting Lokrum Island, bring swimwear and a towel if you'd like to take a dip. There are no sandy beaches, but plenty of rocky swim spots.
  • After your tour, take time to explore Dubrovnik’s Old Town at your own pace. The narrow lanes, local shops, and cafes offer plenty to discover.
