Marko made the whole experience worthwhile. His suggestions and local knowledge ensured we got to see the best of Dubrovnik. It was a pleasure to have seen it through his eyes. He communicated prior to us meeting through WhatsApp and ensured he covered all of the things we wanted to do and see. He even used his own car to transport us around, which was spotlessly clean. An added touch was the thoughtful bottle of water he provided for us and he also treated us to refreshments halfway through the tour. I would definitely book Marko again if I went back to Dubrovnik.Dubrovnik with Marko

“Romana was a great hostess for our first night in Dubrovnik! She took us to a few incredible spots and introduced us to some tasty + unique beverages. We loved the local feel of the tour. At each stop, Romana sprinkled a little bit ‘extra’ into the experience (correct pronunciation of challenging words, getting to know local pub owners/employees, historical tidbits not commonly discussed, etc). We highly recommend booking her for a private tour - it was so much fun!!”Wonderful experience

(About local Romana)

“The wine tasting and street food tour is a great experience, not just for the excellent wine and cheese to start, but also for the opportunity to sit and chat with a local, being able to ask any questions. The evening was fun, we learned quite a bit about Dubrovnik itself and its development of the tourist industry in the last few years. It wasn't just a dry lecture, it was a fun conversation where Romana was very open about different cultural aspects, giving advice on how to further plan the holiday and just general smalltalk. While the main streets are quite busy in the evening, the wine bar and the street food shop werent too crowded and still allowed for a decent conversation without having to shout to get over the noise. Overall would definitely recommend the tour to get a more personal view and experience in dubrovnik.”Local experience

I organised this tour for 2 for my partner's birthday. I chose Vesna based on previous reviews. Vesna not only gave a superb tour, but was able to answer our many questions about what we were seeing and history of recent happenings in history. I asked Vesna to direct us to a bakery but she surpassed this by taking us to an excellent restaurant for bubbles and choice and cake. The ferries were not running due to bad weather so Vesna organised a wonderful chauffeur driven car instead. Hvala Vesna! Knowledgeable and adaptable guide

We spent five hours on a tour of the old town with Marko. His knowledge, passion, enthusiasm and humour meant that it passed by in what seemed like only two hours. If you are having a tour through With Locals ask them to ‘get Marko’ you will not be disappointed and you will visit things that you would never see wandering around on your own. A Great old town tour

Marija nous a élaboré une visite privée de Dubrovnik pour moi et ma fille, en français. (qui est d'ailleurs très bon) Elle a été très patiente et avait prévu de petites attentions spécialement pour ma fille de 5 ans. Marija est charmante et est passionnée par cette magnifique ville et son histoire, Je recommande les yeux fermés cette activité. Je n'ai pas vu le temps passer....Je n'ai pas vu le temps passer...

(About local Marko)

30 March 2025

We had only a day and a half in Dubrovnik and needed someone to give us an overview upon which we could make the most of our time in the city. Marko more than filled that need. Born and raised in the city, with a passion for its history, culture, and arts, we spent three hours learning our way around the city and identifying places for further exploration on our own in the time we had left. Marko's English is top notch, and he was careful to pace the time to our needs and interests, fielding questions along the way and giving clear answers as he did. Communication with him was clear, and we met in a spot easy to find. You will not find a better guide for this city that holds so much history and exemplifies the qualities that make Croatia such a great place to visit!Perfect Guide for a Complex City

Jeni&Rolf-The overall tour was great. Barbara was great with her story telling and was able to keep the whole family interested. The hour passed very quickly. She knew her facts and was able to answer all our questions. Definitely recommend. 👌🏼 Madison-This tour is perfect for anyone wanting to explore Dubrovnik’s old town, hear a brief history of the city, and decide what to do during your time. We took this tour the night we arrived in Dubrovnik and it helped us plan what we wanted to do the following two days. Barbara had local insight on open exhibits and things to do that we would not have known about otherwise. Great info and it was a private tour so it was personalized! Also Barbara’s English is amazing and it’s very easy to understand everything. Highly recommend. Lesley-Amazing introduction to Dubrovnik! Barbara was the perfect guide - extremely knowledgeable, personable and entertaining. She went above and beyond her remit and was in no hurry to finish after the hour was up (she happily went on telling the amazing story of her beloved home town long after the time was up, such was her love for the place). She is passionate about the place and rightly proud of her birthright. We came away with a much better understanding of the history that has shaped Dubrovnik and Croatia. I strongly recommend Barbara’s tour; it is a joyous story of the city condensed into a short walk. Donna-Barbara was kind and knowledgeable and I really enjoyed learning from her😊 Definitely recommend(Jeni&Rolf), Highly recommend(Madison), Amazing introduction(Lesley), Enjoyable!(Donna)

“EXCELLENT TOUR! HIGHLY RECOMMANDABLE! Romana is a lovely and charming young tourist guide. I want to thank her for her excellent storytelling and for her effort to make the tour so special and magical by taking me to non-touristic and not so crowded hidden places. I was amazed and I will recommend this tour for sure! I also loved the visit of the authentic little shop with homemade sweets, spices and marmelades! In the end I felt like I made new friends in Dubrovnik and that's what it is all about.”Excellent experience

“I cannot recommend Romana highly enough! She is the friendliest and loveliest tour guide we have ever had! It was such a wonderful tour being shown Dubrovnik from a local, she showed us hidden gems and gave us excellent advice from food recommendations to tourist information. She recommended excellent restaurants to eat at and took us to a local shop (which we would have never found by ourselves) where we had some local cuisine and coffee which was delicious, we even bought t-shirts from her fathers shop which was great value and a lovely reminder of our trip. This was the highlight of our trip and exceeded expectations. I highly recommend Romana’s tour as it made our stay in Dubrovnik so much more than the few tourist things you think of doing. Thank you Romana for a lovely day!”Amazing tour!

Barbara is the best tour guide you can find in Dubrovnik! We took a Dubrovnik night tour, which was super informative and full of the towns history. When it was time for us to tour ourselves during the day, we knew which spots exactly to hit without wasting time! The wine bar was the perfect finish to the night tour, with the most delicious cheese and Croatian wine. Make sure to book a tour with Barbara’s as she goes above and beyond!

What an amazing time we spent with Mia! She is extremely knowledgeable, charming, and fun to listen to. We heard and learned so much. She provided an in-depth historic timeline and provided amazing insights and stories, even her personal experience of the war. We also enjoyed spending some relaxing conversation time with her in a restaurant, and she provided us with useful tips for restaurants and excursions. We warmheartedly and wholeheartedly recommend Mia. But beware: she is now (end of December) taking reservations for next October! :-)Wow!

My friend and I did an evening tour with Barbara whilst on our holiday to Dubrovnik last week - neither of us knew anything about Dubrovnik's history so it was great to learn so many interesting facts and see features that you wouldn't necessarily spot as a tourist! She was lovely and great to chat with, especially over the cheese and wine at the end of the tour (which was perfect to end the evening and I bought a bottle of the fantastic wine at the bar). Thank you for a wonderful experience!Wonderful!

She gave us an excellent tour of Dubrovnik which provided a first hand account of the war in 1991. Prior to that time, we really had not known that much about it. It was truly fascinating, if not heartbreaking. We all enjoyed the tour very much and highly recommend it, if you are into history.Amazing Vesna!

Karmen gave us a wonderful introduction to Dubrovnik perfectly tailored to children, and made sure I could bring the stroller for my youngest. Although my two girls were incredibly shy and didn't talk the whole time, all Karmen's commentary all went in and they were captivated. I have been amused to hear from my daughter's teacher that when she went back to school she educated her whole class on the history of Dubrovnik, the Saint, why there are cats etc. The school were impressed and I said it was our fantastic tour guide! Karmen also took us into a fun Christmas shop, and to a handful of other stops including a great craft beer bar that made my husbands day, and also gave us great advice. Thank you Karmen for doing one final tour for us at the end of your season.Fantastic - We highly recommend Karmen

As a Dubrovnik native, Marko was incredibly knowledgeable about Croatia, the city and its history. He told us remarkable and personal stories about the 1991-92 war and its effect on Croatia. He was flexible so that he easily tailored the tour to meet our needs. Besides Dubrovnik (and yes Game of Throne scenes), we went to Mount Srd for scenic views and Lokrum, a beautiful bio-diverse island. His tour was especially great for us since we had limited time in the Dubrovnik area. I highly recommend Marko!Marko was incredibly knowledgeable about Croatia, the city and its history

Vlaho handled a serious and difficult subject very well. I now have a much deeper understanding of the breakup of Yugoslavia in a way that will stay with me for a very long time. It was a privilege to hear about what happened in Dubrovnik from someone who was there during the war. I recommend doing the tour early during your stay because Vlaho was very helpful with advice for the rest of our time in Croatia.

Vlaho did a beautiful job mixed history, experience and a world of knowledge about his beautiful home town of Dubrovnik. He messaged me back and forth and patiently made sure all my questions were answered. Vlaho gave my group perfect instructions as to where to meet him. My wife has troubles with lots of stairs, cobblestones and inclines. He made sure that she knew in advance where the few steps were and watched out for her through the whole your. From the time we started the tour, Vlaho explained very articulately how history brought us to where we were right then and there. He explained how things have changed over the years. He didn’t miss a step. He made us feel like locals walking through small side streets discussing whatever we saw. My wife and I have been traveling for over 40 years and I consider Vlaho one of the best tour guides we ever had. When you come to Dubrovnik, you must tour with Vlaho.
