Dubrovnik, founded in the 6th century as a port fort city, features massive fortress walls that are remarkably well-preserved (after the 17th-century earthquake), stretching for about 2 km. Inside the city walls, narrow, incredibly beautiful streets and squares surround the 15th-century City Bell Tower, the 16th-century Sponza Palace, the 14th-century Dominican Monastery (which we will visit; entry ticket included), and many romantic courtyards and cafes. Here, in one of the narrow streets of Old Dubrovnik, you can buy the best souvenirs and gifts. A boat trip around the fortress walls will offer a view of the city from the sea (entry ticket included). Free time in the city. Return to the hotel. Dinner. Overnight in Dubrovnik.

"At the birth of our planet, the most beautiful meeting of land and sea occurred in Montenegro. When pearls of nature were scattered, this land received a whole handful."
— Lord George Byron
