    This is a really great place for photos and videos. There are many stairs. It closes at 15:00, but when i went they told us we can leave at 15:30. It's a long way to go.

    A wonderful and very old town full of beautiful sights, nice restaurants and a very interesting history. There is still massive restauration going on from the extensive damages caused by the aggression in the 1990’s, so many buildings look quite new.

    City center, within the ancient walls of a Palace. Filled with restaurants cafés souvenirs shops, overlooking the harbour. Great place to visit lovely for a walk, a meal, or to sit and relax near the see. Highly recommended to visit and see the blend of medieval Croatia and ancient roman influences.

    Gorgeous park! Located on a hill great for a walk or stroll with amazing views of the split, as well as the see. Very well organised with many interesting churches a zoo and a botanic garden. With some attractions for children and animal friendly. On the shore filled with beaches perfect to sunbathe and swim.

    This was such an amazing spot. It was not crowded and the day was sunny. The noise from the steps was amazing. We moved up and down the shoreline to enjoy the sounds. It was a great place to take a video to share.

    I read that Cavtat began life in the third century BC as Epidaurum, a colony founded by the Greeks from the island of Vis. It was destroyed in the 7th century and occasional excavations have revealed several remains of the antique town. The pretty village of Cavtat grew up in its place. It was discovered by Austro-Hungarian tourists at the beginning of the twentieth century; however, development was slow and fortunately much of Cavtat’s charm survives along the seafront promenade. Unfortunately, there was quite a bit of construction during our visit.
    Cavtat is set on a horseshoe-shaped bay, defined by two long peninsulas covered in pine forests with the port and a tree-lined promenade in between. While Cavtat’s old town is small, I found it to be very atmospheric. Sloping gently up from the promenade, the narrow streets are full of attractive village houses.

    We drove to Cavtat from Dubrovnik but it can be easily reached via boats that leave from Dubrovnik’s Old Port – it is cheaper if you purchase a round trip ticket but you would have to return with the same company.

    Or, you can also reach Cavtat by public bus #10 and the journey will take about 30 minutes.

    Once we parked, we first dropped in at the Tourist Office. The office was staffed by two people who were singularly unhelpful, never acknowledged our presence and spent their time on their computers. We were the only ones there. Even saying Hello received no response. So we picked up a few brochures and left.

    The suggested walking path brochure was particularly helpful. Don’t miss the parish church of St Nicholas at the bottom of the hill and the scenic views from Cavtat’s cemetery at the top. Halfway to the cemetery we found The House of Vlaho Bukovac, an art museum. You can see more of Bukovac’s work at the former Rector’s Palace, along with a collection of Roman artefacts. The biggest tourist attractions are located along the seaside promenade.

    However, I also encourage you to just wander up the staircases that lead to the residential areas. The views are beautiful and it is a nice way to admire some older buildings. Lastly, take the time to just relax and grab a meal, or just a drink at one of the restaurants that line the seafront.

    Walking around in the old city are very nice, there are a lot to discover and see. But it is crowded even if we was there late in the season. But it is worth a visit for sure!

    Trogir is a beautiful old village which is still inhabited by ‘real’ inhabitants as well as having loads of tourist accommodation

    There is a plethora of historic sites of churches, defensive towers and other buildings

    There are fabulous restaurants offering a good selection of seafood and traditional fare

    The quayside has a small flea market most days and is a great place to sit, admire the boats/ small cruisers whilst having a drink and or a snack

    We had wanted to hike up to the top of the mountain, but just did not have enough time and so took the Gondola. The Gondola is pricey, but you do get some pretty good views of Dubrovnik and the sunset, of course. There are two restaurants at the top, restrooms and an overlook where you can take some great pictures of Dubrovnik. There is also a museum in the next building. While I am glad we went, I’m not sure it was worth the price.

    5/5 a must if you love your history!

    This was so immersive, like being in ancient times! It really helped us picture what the palace would have been like to live in and how it would have looked, can’t recommend it enough!
