Help to get a day trip to Blue Cave from Dubrovnik

Hi Guys,

I am travellng to Dubrovnik in this Summer for a vacation. I kinda struggling to get the best way to get to blue cave. I want a tour inside blu cave in a boat as i am travelling with my 1 year old baby. From Dubrovnik every tour gets to blue cave but they do not include or say how to go inside the blue cave in a boat. Can anyone help me with a good one day itinerary or tour to Blue cave which includes boat ride into the blue cave.

Any help would be appreciated

Swim to Lokrum Island?

Is it safe to swim from Dubrovnik to Lokrum Island? I'm a very strong swimmer (can comfortably swim 4km in open water) but don't know if there are any dangerous currents/wildlife that I need to be concerned about.

Private clinic for pregnancy check

Hi all,

We will be travelling to Dubrovnik at the end of the week to spend one week there. My wife is pregnant, and we are checking in advance where it is possible to do a pregnancy check in case it will be needed. We have found Poliklinika MarnMed, it is a good place for such things? Otherwise could you advise another clinic?

Thanks in advance, cheers!☺️

2.5 days in Dubrovnik

Hi there!

My friend and I will be visiting Croatia from NYC this June. (We will spend a week in Primošten before a brief stop in Dubrovnik for 2.5 days). I would be so grateful for any suggestions of things to do in Dubrovnik - the best restaurants (we don’t NEED to go to fancy places unless they’re absolute must-go’s. We’re more excited about getting an authentic taste of the city), must-do activities, etc. We love exploring by foot, walking around interesting neighborhoods, checking out markets, and being on the water. We are staying very centrally but will also have a car. Any suggestions would be so helpful! If you happen to have advice for us Primošten, we’d welcome that as well!

Best, Ari

How to take a taxi from Dubrovnik to Tivat?

We land in Dubrovnik at 18:30. We would like to take a taxi to Tivat airport where our friend will pick us up later that night.

Is this possible? If so, can we just use one of the taxi services at the Dubrovnik airport when we land or does it need to be booked in advance?

At the Montenegro border, will we only need our passports?

Deli with Croatian products

I will be travelling from Dubrovnik to Korčula on Monday. I'd like to stock up on some great olives, ajvar, cheese, ham olive oil etc on the way.

The only place I found is Gligora Cheese and Deli Shop. Is it good?

Is there anything else you could recommend en route?

Booking excursions

I’m going on holiday to Dubrovnik in September and was wondering if anyone knew when the best time was to book excursions? Should we do it well in advance, or can we do it while we are there easy enough?

Good barber?

Am here for a week and looking for a very good barber for men (hairs and beard), that also speaks English well as not to risk misunderstandings…

If anyone has any good recommendations I would be extremely grateful!

Bonus points if they are opened tomorrow (Sunday)

Update: With 3 mentions for Rebel, I made an appointment there.

Thank you, this subreddit is really helpful, love it! Will hang around here

Student Discount on Dubrovnik Walls

Hello, I read that there is a student discount for walking the Dubrovnik city walls by just showing your ISIC card. However, my ISIC card is virtual so I am wondering if they will still accept it at the ticket office. There was a case where one student couldn’t get the discount because of a this. Does the card being virtual/physical actually matter? Thanks in advance :)

What is the best way getting around Dubrovnik?

I'm going to Dubrovnik for work for a couple of weeks. After work and on the weekends I'd like to go sightseeing, hiking, to the beach and of course get everyday stuff done.

What is the cheapest and fastest way getting around the city? (from Lapad close to the city centre mostly)

  • I tried to research it and the bus seems very unreliable and the schedule is limited. Correct me if I'm wrong, but it doesn't seem you can relay on just that.
  • I don't have a license so unfortunately I can't rent a car or scooter.
  • Can I rent a bicycle somewhere for normal amount of money (not €10+/day)?
  • Are the streets skateabale (skateboard friendly)? They seem very narrow and steep.

My other question is when I was looking for accommodation, I noticed in the surrounding towns the accommodations are lot cheaper. Would it be a nightmare to commute each day to work from one of those towns without a car?

Moving to Dubrovnik - what areas are good?

Hi everyone,

I am seriously considering moving to Dubrovnik. I am looking for something reasonable not too far away from the centre, a safe and beautiful area.

What are some good places?

I appreciate your help!

I am looking for advice on where to stay in or near Dubrovnik. Not fussed about being too central as may hire a car. Are there any local areas outside the city that are better? Or as I may only be there a few nights is it better to stay locally? Thanks.

Early morning Bolt

Does anyone here know what time bolt drivers usually start operating in Dubrovnik on weekdays? I’m contemplating whether taking a bolt to the airport is a good idea, with my flight leaving at 9am.
