CROATIA
After visiting Lake Bled, Slovenia, my goal was to get to Dubrovnik, Croatia. I took a bus from Lake Bled to the train station in Lesce Bled, a train to the capital city of Ljubljana, Slovenia, then a bus to Zagreb, Croatia. Buses are a great way to get around Europe, check out Flixbus! I was planning on taking buses all the way down to Dubrovnik, but it was about a 24-hour trip, whereas I could take 1-hour flight for $100. Long-story short, I made it to Dubrovnik before embarking on my Balkans Road Trip! Here are my top things to do in Dubrovnik Croatia!
DUBROVNIK’S CITY WALLS
This is probably the most popular tourist attraction in Dubrovnik, but personally I couldn’t bring myself to pay 30 Euros to do it. If you do decide to go, check it out early in the morning right when it opens to avoid the crowds.
STARI GRAD
Check out the unique Old Town area for some historical context of Dubrovnik!
MOUNT SRD
You can either hike to the top or take a cable car ride up! Highly recommended for a gorgeous sunset view.
TAKE A DIP IN HIDDEN POOLS ALONG THE COAST
One of my favorite pools is located at Hotel Excelsior! It’s open to the public and free of charge.
