Amazing!

Excellent guide having firsthand experience of the Dubrovnik Homeland War. Personal and thought provoking. Even my 14 year old son was soaking in all the information and said he could feel it in his heart. Could not have asked for more. Thank you and fully recommend this tour.

Amazing!

My wife and I have gone on Battlefield tours around the world and this by far was one of the best and most unique. We have never taken a Battlefield tour with a veteran who had fought at the site. Vlaho was super professional and explained to us the very complex nature of the war at that time and how it impacted the soldiers and the civilians of Dubrovnik. I would highly recommend this tour to truly appreciate what Croatia did to gain their independence and the sacrifices their soldiers and citizens made.

Dear Brian, Thank you so much for the very rewarding review and showing deep understanding for Croatia's battle for survival and independance in the 90's! It was a great pleasure spending time with you and your lovely wife and touching Dubrovnik's recent most sensitive history during the Homeland War in Croatia. I wish you all the best in life and looking forward to seeing you again! Vlaho

Amazing!

Vlaho was an extremely knowledgeable and friendly guide.

He provided a thorough insight into all of the history behind the conflict.

We had refreshments at the Veterans cafe which was very welcome as it was very warm and also this helps the cafe.

The tour was also very well organised and structured.

Excellent and attentive tour guide. He spent a lot of time with us patiently answering our many questions. Really added a new dimension to our visit to Dubrovnik. Highly recommended if you want more than just the standard tourist experience of the city.

Amazing!

This was an excellent tour, with the history of Dubrovnik interweaved with poignant and personal stories of the seven month siege of the city during the Croatian War of Independence in 1991-1992. The tour starts at the east gate and meanders through the whole of the city, ending at the west gate. It was well worth our time and we highly recommend this tour.
