Why Dubrovnik & the Dalmatian Coast, Croatia.
Walking the full circuit of Dubrovnik’s 25 m-high city walls is the essential experience — go early or late to dodge heat and cruise crowds.
The old town stood in for King’s Landing in Game of Thrones; themed walking tours map the scenes.
A cable car up Mount Srđ delivers the postcard view over the walled city and the Adriatic.
Day-trip by boat to Lokrum island or the Elaphiti islands; sea-kayaking below the walls is a local favourite.
Croatia joined the euro and Schengen in 2023 — easy entry and a single currency with the rest of the zone.

Dubrovnik’s old town is a UNESCO-listed marvel: a complete ring of medieval walls wrapped around marble streets, baroque churches and red rooftops above an impossibly blue Adriatic. Beyond the walls lie island-hopping day trips, sea kayaking beneath the ramparts, and the wider Dalmatian Coast. Game of Thrones made it King’s Landing; history made it a maritime republic that rivalled Venice.
