Book Description
This old Croatian city is a perfect extended stop-off for travellers exploring Mediterranean Europe by land or sea. Byron’s ‘Pearl of the Adriatic’ - now fully restored to its former glory - has everything for the cultural enthusiast: arguably the best city walls in Europe, Italian architecture, palaces and churches. Bathe in the clear waters of the Adriatic Sea, or take in one of the best views of the city atop the impressive town walls. This guide covers more than just the city; day trips to islands just off Dubrovnik’s peaceful coastline are included for those wishing to retreat from the bustle of the city and indulge in scenic walks and natural history.
• Hotels for all styles and budgets, including accommodation within the city walls
• Recommended restaurants and bars, from the laid back to that place for a special occasion
• Exploring beyond the city, including coastal walks and day trips to the islands
• Practical advice, including getting there and getting around on public transport
From the Author
I’ve had a love affair with Croatia for more than twenty years, ever since I first inter-railed round Europe in 1982 and got stranded in Split for four days, waiting for someone to show up who never showed. It wasn’t difficult to find my way from there to Dubrovnik, or to be entranced forever by the city once I got there.
It wasn’t long before I was hammering at Bradt’s door and clamouring to write about (what was then) Yugoslavia. That book came out in 1989, just in time to be washed away by the war -- I spent 1991 glued to the television set, watching in horror as Dubrovnik was shelled, and had to wait a decade for my second chance to write about it. My guide to Croatia was published in 2003 (with a second edition in 2005), but between these covers I trust you’ll find the most comprehensive, useful and up-to-date city guide to Dubrovnik.
