11 Fun Things To Do in Dubrovnik Alone (For First-Timers)
So you’re thinking about travelling to Dubrovnik alone, and now you’re wondering what there actually is to do as a solo female traveller, in a city known for cruise crowds, romantic couples getaways and big, medieval (expensive!) walls…
Yep, I get it!
I’ve been there too (overthinking my itinerary over and over again!), but my solo trip to Dubrovnik ended up being incredible and I don’t for one second regret the things I did (or didn’t!) do.
And now I’ve put all of that overthinking and overplanning into this guide, so you will know all of the fun, safe and genuinely special things to do in Dubrovnik alone!
This blog post is for you if you’re a solo traveller who wants to experience the beauty Dubrovnik fully, rather than just ticking off the sights from your bucket list.
So let’s get into it: here are the 11 things I did (and absolutely recommend), to make your first solo trip to Dubrovnik the very best experience it can be!

Is Dubrovnik Worth Visiting Alone?
Chances are you’ve scrolled past a dreamy photo of Dubrovnik on Instagram and thought, “ugh, that looks beautiful… but also like it’s full of couples and cruise ships.”
And you’re definitely not wrong. It can be.
But, if you pick your timing well and plan the right kind of trip for your preferences and travel wish list, a solo trip to Dubrovnik can be genuinely magical – and way less hectic and overwhelming than the internet makes it seem!
The trick to visiting Dubrovnik alone is to avoid peak hours and focus on experiences that suit solo travel, like exploring those famous old town streets early (before the cruise ships even arrive), island hopping at your own pace, or walking the city walls just before sunset.
There are so many amazing things to do in Dubrovnik alone that actually feel better when you’re not waiting for anyone else. You’ll have time to slow down, look up and let this beautiful Adriatic city surprise you.
Because spoiler alert: Dubrovnik is definitely not just for couples and cruisers, and it is absolutely worth visiting!

Best Time to Visit Dubrovnik Alone
As I said, Dubrovnik changes dramatically depending on when you visit. And especially if you’re planning a solo trip, the timing really matters.
July and August? Beautiful, but absolutely rammed.
It’s when most of those huge cruise ships dock, prices skyrocket to being on the verge of obscene (!!), the cobbled streets get packed, and it’s so hot you can’t enjoy what you’re seeing anyway.
So, for the best experience, aim to visit Dubrovnik during shoulder season.
Shoulder season in Dubrovnik is May, early June, late September and early October.
During these months, the weather is still sunny and warm, but the crowds thin out in a big way, there are fewer cruise ships in port, and you’ll have more space to breathe and enjoy your trip. Plus, restaurants, ferries and local tours are still running at full capacity.
Winter is also an option if you’re more into quiet corners than beach days, but just know that some tours and island connections shut down off-season.
Is Dubrovnik Safe for Solo Female Travellers?
Yes, overall, Dubrovnik is very safe for solo female travellers.
It’s one of those cities where you can walk alone at night as a woman without feeling constantly on edge, and the local culture is generally respectful.
However, it’s still a major tourist city, which means petty crimes, in particular petty theft (like bag snatching or phone grabbing), can and does happen in crowded areas at peak times.
Summer is notorious for this.
In my experience, you’ll also find a surprising number of other solo female travellers here in Dubrovnik too – especially if you book a walking tour or a group day trip.
I never felt unsafe during my solo trip to Dubrovnik, but I still always stick to my usual solo travel safety habits, like avoiding unlit side streets at night, keeping valuables tucked away, etc etc.
Katie’s Top Tip: Be sure to check out my full, honest guide to safety in Dubrovnik as a solo female traveller. It goes into everything from local scams you should be aware of to how I handle unwanted attention. Plus I break down all of the crime stats, places to go and places to avoid!
11 Fun Things To Do in Dubrovnik Alone (For First-Timers)
Okay, now let’s talk about what to actually do in Dubrovnik on your own, because “wander around the old town” sounds nice in theory, but let’s be honest: it doesn’t quite cut it when you’ve travelled all this way and want to make the most of every moment of your trip!
Whether you’re into history, sea views, day trips to Croatia hidden gems or finding quiet corners away from the crowds, there’s something on this list for you!
These are the best things to do in Dubrovnik alone, based on what I’ve actually done, loved and would 100% do again as a solo female traveller.
1. Walk the Iconic City Walls
Yep, I know. I know. You’ve heard it a million times before.
But this is the classic Dubrovnik activity – and don’t worry, it totally lives up to the hype, even if (like me!) you usually steadfastly avoid anything labelled as “touristy!”
Walking the walls of Dubrovnik solo is honestly one of the best ways to get your bearings and feel totally immersed in the city and its atmosphere. They wrap around the entire old town and give you the most stunning views of the sea, those famous terracotta rooftops, Mount Srd and even Lokrum Island.
In my opinion, you should definitely schedule the walls walk for your first day in Dubrovnik, to get your bearings.
In fact, I arrived in Dubrovnik by bus from Kotor, Montenegro on a Sunday lunchtime in early October, and by 2:30pm I was up on the walls!
It’s the perfect place to stretch your legs and experience the very best of Dubrovnik. Plus, when I visited, it was super quiet, despite it being a sunny weekend in the middle of the afternoon!
The full walk is just under 2km and took me about 2.5 hours, taking my time.
And you absolutely should take your time here, by the way. This isn’t an attraction to be rushed through and ticked off your Dubrovnik bucket list. Not only because taking your time allows you to appreciate the true beauty of the walk and the scenery, but also because of the cost…
It’s €40 for a ticket as of 2025 (approx. £35/$47).
And yep, I know. It’s pricey. I definitely balked and second guessed it too. But it is a truly iconic thing to do in Dubrovnik as a solo traveller and, in my opinion, it is well worth doing despite the cost!
Best Spots to See on the Walls of Dubrovnik:
- Lovrijenac Fortress
- Minceta Tower
- Bokar Fortress
- The view over Stradun (on the walls near the Pile Gate entrance)
- The view over the Old Harbour
- The view over Dubrovnik West Harbour
- The view of Lokrum Island
There are two main entrances to Dubrovnik’s walls. Pile Gate is the most popular starting point (and also the busiest!) but you can also start your walk at b
I would also recommend you start your walk early in the morning or in the late afternoon for cooler temperatures, fewer people and softer light for photos. Oh, and don’t forget to bring water and comfy shoes with good grips for walking!
Katie’s Top Tip: Don’t rush it. Stop for breaks, bring headphones if you want a little background music or an audio guide, and let yourself enjoy the scenery. This is one of those things to do in Dubrovnik alone that is even more incredible as a solo female traveller, with no one to hurry you along or distract you from that incredible view!

2. Ride the Cable Car to Mount Srd
The Dubrovnik cable car to Mount Srd gives you a sweeping, panoramic view of the entire old town, the sparkling Adriatic Sea, and the surrounding islands. Plus, it only takes 3-4 minutes to reach the top!
You’ll find the lower cable car station just outside the city walls near Ploce Gate (so it’s super easy to reach on foot).
Tickets currently cost €30 return (approx. £26/$35). Which, again, is definitely on the pricier side when comparing it to other cable cars in Europe. But, in my opinion, the cost is well worth it – especially if you choose to go up to the top of Mount Srd for sunset. (More on that in just a second!)
The cable cars run every 15–30 minutes, depending on the season. And the timetable is also subject to seasonal changes. Plus, the weather (like wind or storms), might halt operations. You can stay up to date with all of this on the Dubrovnik cable car website.
At the top of Mount Srd, you’ll find, of course, that famous panoramic viewing terrace. As well as:
- The popular “Panorama” restaurant/bar (which, in my opinion, is overpriced for what you get – but it does have great views, so you do you!)
- Off-road buggy adventures
- A thrilling zipline experience
- The Homeland War Museum
Katie’s Top Tip: The best thing to do up Mount Srd is, of course, to take in those breath-taking views. And my top tip for this is to go just before sunset. It’s a truly magical time to be standing high above the city and the sea, watching the colours change before your eyes. But if you do choose sunset, be sure to get there at least 45 minutes early, to secure a good front row spot on the terrace. It fills up fast and once sunset hits, you’ll want an uninterrupted view (and your camera!)

3. See the Jesuit Stairs
Even if you’re not into Game of Thrones, the Jesuit Stairs are still worth seeing.
They are a stunning example of grand Baroque architecture, connecting Gundulic Square to the equally magical and atmospheric Catholic Church of St. Ignatius. (Which is also well worth a visit in its own right, or at least a photo stop!)
But if you are a GoT fan, you will recognise that the Jesuit Stairs are where that famous “walk of shame” scene was filmed – yep, that one with Cersei!
You can find the Jesuit Stairs behind Gundulic Square (which is great for a stop too, by the way!), and it’s usually less crowded than Stradun.
But again, this is Dubrovnik (and, of course, a popular filming location!), so it will never be free from tourists unless you visit early in the morning.
The architecture in this part of Dubrovnik is all beautiful and baroque, so be sure to dedicate some time in your Dubrovnik itinerary to admire it. The surrounding square is also perfect for enjoying a gelato on a hot day, doing a little people watching or, of course, taking some truly iconic photos!
Katie’s Top Tip: As I said, try to visit in the early morning for softer light and far fewer people. No matter what time of year you visit, the steps will be full of tourists after around 9/10am, making it impossible to get an empty shot. The Jesuit Stairs are one of those more unusual things to do in Dubrovnik alone that feels extra special when it’s quiet, so it’s well worth the early morning!

4. Explore Dubrovnik’s Old Port
Tucked just beyond the eastern edge of the old city walls, Dubrovnik’s old port is a lovely spot to slow down and relax, taking in the spectacular sea views.
It’s still a working harbour, but a lot more peaceful than Dubrovnik’s main harbour in Gruz.
In Dubrovnik old port, you’ll see small boats bobbing in the water, tourists coming and going from boat trips, locals fishing, Lokrum Island in the distance, and plenty of cafes nearby to grab a coffee or gelato and enjoy some people watching!
You can also stroll along the small waterfront, check out the old stone arches of the Arsenal (a 13th-century shipyard turned iconic Dubrovnik restaurant), or even hop on a boat trip to Lokrum Island from here.
But however you choose to spend your time in Dubrovnik old port, it’s a great way to break up your day (especially if you’ve been walking a lot).
There are plenty of benches to sit on overlooking the water, you’ll get a cool breeze from the sea, and even though it will be busy, there is a greater feeling of calm here that you definitely won’t get in the heart of the old town.
Katie’s Top Tip: Bring a book or journal, grab a drink from a nearby cafe or supermarket, and give yourself permission to sit and relax for a while. You don’t always need to be actively doing something for your trip to Dubrovnik to be magical. In fact, during my own solo trip, I found that the best things to do in Dubrovnik alone were also the quietest, most relaxing ones!

5. Day Trip to Korcula Island
Korcula is often described as “Dubrovnik’s little sister,” and honestly? It’s my absolute favourite place in Croatia (and one of the best day trips I’ve ever done solo, anywhere in Europe!)
Korcula old town, at the heart of Korcula Island, is compact and oh so charming, surrounded by crystal-clear water, “secret” beaches, and plenty of options for relaxed, waterfront dining (and great wine!)
I mean, what more could you want?!
If you’re even a little into slow travel, stunning views and a day trip that feels like a mini holiday within your holiday (rather than feeling stressful and rushed!), Korcula is the perfect Dubrovnik day trip for you.
You’ve got a few options for getting to Korcula from Dubrovnik:
By high-speed catamaran: In high season, Kapetan Luka and Jadrolinija run fast ferries from Dubrovnik’s Gruz Port to Korcula Town. It takes around 2 hours each way. Make sure you book online in advance as this route is popular in summer.
By car: If you’re renting a car, you’ll drive up the Peljesac Peninsula and then take the short car ferry from Orebic to Korcula’s car ferry port, before driving a few minutes to the old town. The drive is very scenic but make sure you’re comfortable driving solo in Europe before you choose this option as a solo female traveller.
By guided tour: Guided tours include free time in Korcula, Ston (famous for “the Great Wall of Croatia”, second only in length to the Great Wall of China), and stop for wine tasting. Korcula is the longest stop on this full day guided tour, and there is plenty of time for sightseeing, sunbathing and outdoor dining. It’s also a great way to meet fellow travellers, if you’re in the mood to be social!
By private tour: If you’ve got the budget, a private tour to Korcula gives you maximum freedom and a stress-free experience. This is ideal if you’re short on time and want to make your day trip from Dubrovnik to Korcula extra special and personalised, with your own dedicated guide.
You can read more about what to do when you get to Korcula in my full guide to the very best things to do in Korcula – but trust me, this charming old town is well worth a day of your Dubrovnik itinerary!
Katie’s Top Tip: If you’re travelling to Korcula from Dubrovnik solo, I recommend the high-speed catamaran or a guided tour for ease and flexibility. And if you’re planning to use the catamaran, head out on the earliest ferry and plan to spend the whole day.

6. Visit Dubrovnik Cathedral
Tucked off the main square in Dubrovnik old town, the Roman Catholic Dubrovnik Cathedral (also called the Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary), may not be as flashy as some of Europe’s more famous churches – but that’s what makes it so special and so very Dubrovnik!
Dubrovnik Cathedral is more quietly beautiful, in an understated way, and stepping inside is equally magical. (It’s also cool inside, which makes it a great, peaceful escape from the heat and crowds outside!)
The cathedral that stands today was built on the site of Dubrovnik’s former cathedrals, in the 7th, 10th, 11th and 12th centuries. The 12th century Romanesque cathedral was mostly destroyed in 1667 due to an earthquake.
Dubrovnik Cathedral was finally rebuilt into the current baroque design we can admire today in the early 18th century.
Inside the cathedral, you’ll find that it is again relatively understated, with soft light, an intricate altar and high, majestic ceilings. You’ll also find the small but fascinating treasury, with 138 gold and silver relics, as well as incredible artwork.
Katie’s Top Tip: Time your visit during the mid-day heat for a quiet, peaceful escape from the intense sun and equally intense crowds. And don’t forget to leave plenty of time during your visit to wander the Treasury and admire all of the displays there.

7. Join a Walking Tour
When you’re exploring a new city solo (especially as a first timer), a walking tour is a perfect day one option.
A good walking tour will give you some interesting historical and local context, will help you get your bearings, and it’s also a great way to meet new people too (if that’s your thing!)
In Dubrovnik, there are two main types of walking tour worth looking into: a classic cultural walking tour, or a quirkier, more niche Game of Thrones walking tour. It just depends what you’re into and what you want your guide to focus on!
The cultural walking tours focus on the city’s complex history – talking you through the earthquakes, sieges, independence, restoration and rising tourism levels that have all shaped the Dubrovnik you see today. You’ll walk through the old town, discover hidden corners of the city and, of course, learn the history of those famous walls. Plus, you will also get a few Game of Thrones mentions along the way, but it won’t be the main focus of the experience.
The Game of Thrones walking tours, on the other hand, are much more theatrical. On the tours, you’ll get to hear lots of behind-the-scenes gossip and visit the exact filming locations with your guide. They’re fun even if you’re not a superfan (although if you are, you’ll love every second!) And it’s also a great way to meet fellow travellers who share a common interest, if that’s your vibe!
But whichever option you choose (and whether you’re a Game of Thrones fan or not), walking tours are still one of the best things to do in Dubrovnik as a solo traveller. They’re low pressure, the local guides are super informative and it’s also a great way to ease into a new city.
Katie’s Top Tip: I recommend booking a small-group walking tour on your first day in Dubrovnik. It will give you loads of local context, recommend some hidden gems, and help you decide what you want to come back to for a longer visit later on. Most Dubrovnik walking tours last 1.5 to 2 hours and cost around €20–€30. Oh and don’t forget to book online to reserve your spot in advance, they’re popular and will book up fast in summer!

8. Admire Dubrovnik’s Many Palaces & Churches
If you love wandering past beautiful buildings and imagining the many lives that passed through them over their centuries of history, you’ll be in heaven here in Dubrovnik!
Dubrovnik’s old town is filled to burst with elegant palaces, grand churches and centuries of layered architecture around every quaint street corner.
Plus, many of the most famous palaces and churches are open to the public, so you can explore on the inside too, rather than it just being a quick one-and-done photo stop.
And the best part about visiting Dubrovnik as a solo traveller? You can take as long (or as little) as you like in each one! No compromising with a bored partner required, if you want to visit your third palace of the day!
I would recommend you at least visit Rector’s Palace, if you only choose to enter one palace or church in Dubrovnik. The architecture is a unique mix of Gothic, Renaissance and Baroque, which is truly beautiful outside and inside.
Once the seat of the elected leader of the Republic, Rector’s Palace is now a fascinating Cultural History Museum, with exhibits, war photographs, portraits and so much more to explore.
A few more of the best museums to visit in Dubrovnik are:
- The Museum of Modern Art
- The Martime Museum
- The Ethnographic Museum
- The Homeland War Museum
There’s also the 16th century Sponza Palace, which somehow survived the great earthquake of 1667 and is one of the most photogenic buildings in the city. Now, the building is home to the Dubrovnik Archive.
And if you’re into churches, don’t miss visiting the Church of St. Ignatius, the Church of St. Blaise, the Church of St. Francis and the Church of St. Dominic.
Katie’s Top Tip: Get the Dubrovnik Pass if you plan to visit a few museums alongside the walls of Dubrovnik – entry fees add up fast! The Dubrovnik Pass includes public transport, those famous city walls and loads of the museums.

9. Take a Day Trip to the Elafiti Islands
If you’re wanting a change of pace from the old town’s packed streets, harbours and walls, a full day boat trip to the Elafiti Islands is one of the most relaxing things to do in Dubrovnik alone.
This mini archipelago, just off the coast, is home to crystal-clear water, beautiful beaches, pine forests and sleepy villages. The Elafiti Islands are a true Croatia hidden gem!
There are three main islands you’ll hear about when you consider your day trip from Dubrovnik to the Elafiti Islands, they are: Kolocep, Lopud and Sipan.
These are the best things to do in Lopud:
- Walk through countryside and past ancient ruins to Sunj beach
- Sunbathe on the tiny Lopud Beach
- Stroll through Djordjic Mayneri Park (Lopud’s Botanical Gardens)
These are the best things to do in Sipan:
- Explore the port of Sudurad
- See the Church of St. George
- Watch the fishing boats bobbing in the tiny harbour
These are the best things to do in Kolocep:
- Admire Kolocep bay from the waterfront promenade
- See the Church of the Assumption
There are a few different ways to visit the Elafiti Islands from Dubrovnik:
Public ferry (Jadrolinija): Ferries leave from Dubrovnik’s Gruz port. Timetables vary depending on the season, so check the official schedule online or at the terminal before you plan your day trip. This is a great low-budget option if you want to spend time on one island, rather than island hopping with a tour.
Full-day group boat tour: These full day tours stop at all three of the main islands and include drinks and swimming breaks, plus plenty of free time to explore at each stop. This is also the perfect tour for solo travellers who want a bit of company while out exploring!
Private boat tour: This is the priciest but most flexible option to visit the Elafiti Islands from Dubrovnik. A private boat tour is ideal if you want a more peaceful and tailored experience, with zero logistics to worry about and no other tourists nearby, interrupting your sunbathing!
Katie’s Top Tip: If you’re doing the ferry by yourself, pick one island (Lopud is your best bet), and take an early boat out and a late one back to make the most of it. Also don’t forget to pack plenty of water, snacks and a good book to read! These islands are perfect for slow travel!

10. Get Lost in the Old Town
Yes, I know it’s a cliché, but getting lost in Dubrovnik’s old town really is one of the most fun and underrated things to do as a solo traveller in Dubrovnik.
So, once you’ve ticked off all of the main streets and sights, I give you full permission to get lost, go rogue, wander where your feet take you… (But don’t worry, as long as you stick within the walls you can’t actually get lost!)
Wander the quiet back alleys, follow staircases just to see where they lead, get to know Dubrovnik’s quieter side… This is the only true way you’ll find those Dubrovnik hidden gems that most tourists miss.
I mean, I could give you a list right now. But then they wouldn’t be hidden gems anymore, right?
Because the truth is that, with a city as popular as Dubrovnik, even those hidden gem lists aren’t hidden gems anymore once they’re ranking on Google, on Pinterest, on Instagram…
Instead, the only way to guarantee finding a hidden gem in Dubrovnik, with no one else around, is to find it yourself. And the only way you’ll do that is by purposefully getting lost.
Plus, it’s part of the fun – we all need time for a bit of spontaneity in our solo travel itinerary!
And in Dubrovnik in particular, there’s something so special about exploring alone, noticing the tiny details: carved stone around doorways, lazy cats sprawled in the shade, potted plants on windowsills… Just give yourself time to stop and notice.
Trust me, just off those over-crowded main streets, there are quiet, quaint side streets that are full of Dubrovnik hidden gems, just waiting to be discovered!
Katie’s Top Tip: Skip Google Maps for a while and let your feet and instincts lead the way. And if you’re worried about getting lost, know that if you know roughly where Pile Gate or Stradun is, you’ll never be more than 10 minutes from one or the other if you stay within the walls.

11. Visit the West Harbour
Dubrovnik’s West Harbour is truly a postcard-perfect spot!
Just around the corner from Pile Gate, through a more quiet, residential part of Dubrovnik, you’ll find Dubrovnik’s West Harbour – famous as the filming location for Blackwater Bay in Game of Thrones.
But even if you’ve never seen an episode, it’s worth visiting for the view alone.
The little cove is framed by Fort Lovrijenac on one side and the towering Dubrovnik city walls on the other. You’ll also often see kayakers launching from here and on a still morning, the water is calm and crystal clear.
There’s no café or gated attraction here – and that’s a huge part of its charm!
By the water, you’ll just find old stone steps, a welcome sea breeze and a (seriously rare!) moment of calm to relax away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Katie’s Top Tip: Come early in the morning with a coffee or even your breakfast. During the day, it’s a popular spot on those Game of Thrones walking tours I was talking about, so it won’t be anywhere near as peaceful after around 10am.

Bonus: Day Trip to Montenegro
One of the biggest perks of being in Dubrovnik? You’re less than two hours from the stunning country of Montenegro.
That means you can easily tick another Balkan country off your bucket list without ever needing to repack your suitcase and find a new hotel!
Whether you’re dreaming of dramatic mountain scenery, the UNESCO-listed (and Insta-famous!) Kotor old town, or just want to say you had breakfast in Croatia and lunch in Montenegro, this popular day trip is totally doable from Dubrovnik.
There are a few easy ways to get from Dubrovnik to Montenegro as a solo traveller:
By bus: This is the most budget-friendly way. The journey from Dubrovnik to Kotor takes around 2–3 hours, depending on border traffic. It’s best to book in advance during summer, but know that there’s not much flexibility with this option, as you’re limited by the bus times.
By car: If you’re renting a car, the drive is scenic and straightforward (although border delays can be unpredictable). Just make sure you’re confident enough crossing an international border on your own.
By group tour: This is the most popular option for solo travellers in Dubrovnik who want ease and structure. Most full-day tours from Dubrovnik to Montenegro include stops in charming Perast, Kotor old town and a few scenic photo stops along the Bay of Kotor. It’s a relaxed and more social way to see the highlights without having to plan every detail yourself. Plus you’ll get support navigating the border crossing!
By private tour: If you’ve got the budget, private tours from Dubrovnik to Montenegro offer the most freedom. You can set your own pace and itinerary, skip the spots that don’t interest you and get deeper insight from your own personal driver and guide.
So if this sounds like your dream day trip, I’ve written a full guide to planning a day trip from Dubrovnik to Montenegro that breaks down exactly how to do it, what to expect at the border, and what you absolutely shouldn’t miss.
And once you know you’re heading to Kotor, be sure to check out my full blog post on the best things to do in Kotor – it’s packed with hidden gems and a whole lot of tips for solo female travellers specifically!
Katie’s Top Tip: If you think Montenegro might steal your heart (because FYI, it probably will!), you’ll want so much more than just a day trip. So bookmark my Montenegro travel hub, where you’ll find all of my blog posts, itineraries and solo female travel advice for exploring this underrated gem in the Balkans.

Final Thoughts
If you’ve been wondering whether it’s worth it to travel to Dubrovnik alone – or what the best things to do in Dubrovnik alone actually look like – I hope this guide has helped you see how rewarding this city can be for solo female travellers.
Yes, Dubrovnik is busy.
Yes, it’s way too touristy in parts.
But it’s also beautiful, full of small surprises (if you take the time to get lost and look for them!), and is very well-suited to solo travel – especially if you time it right (aka shoulder season), and plan a Dubrovnik itinerary that works for you and your interests.
From late-afternoon strolls on those famous city walls, to short ferry rides to quiet islands, Dubrovnik offers a whole lot more than just cruise ship crowds, romantic getaways for two, and Instagram shots.
And you definitely don’t need someone to travel with to enjoy Dubrovnik.
Whether it’s your first solo trip or your fifteenth, Dubrovnik is safe, walkable and packed with fun things to do as a solo female traveller!
And if you’re still not sure where to start? Pick two or three ideas from this list that genuinely excite you and then build your solo Dubrovnik itinerary around them. You don’t have to do it all!
