Your experience
Stop 1
Our Game of Thrones tours starts next to the Large Onofrio's Fountain inside the Old Town (next to the Hard Rock Cafe) where you will meet our representative holding a red umbrella with Dubrovnik Walking Tours sign. After group assembles our guide will introduce him/herself and off we go to a 2hour adventure visiting places from our favorite TV show.
Stop 2
From the meeting point we start our walk towards the West entrance to the Old Town; Pile Gate. Here we will look at some of the scenes from Season 2 & 3. Namely, scenes when the royal procession including King Joffrey is subjected to the jeers of the starving crowds. Joffrey ordering his outnumbered personal guard to execute the entire crowd, sparking off a city riot and the return of Jaime Lannister to the city with Brienne of Tarth. No one from the crowd recognizes Jaime while he slips into the city incognito.
Stop 3
The path leading under Pile Gate drawbridge gets you to the docks of King’s Landing. Visit the beach where the royal entourage including King Joffrey, Queen Cersei Lannister, Tyrion and Sansa Stark are at the docks seeing off Princess Myrcella to Dorne, where the Gold Cloaks were ordered to kill all of King Robert Baratheon’s bastards or where Tyrion goes to the city walls (Fort Bokar) with Lord Varys to discuss strategy to win the battle of Blackwater Bay.
Stop 4
On the way to the steep staircase to the Red Keep, we stop at one of the piers of Dubrovnik western bay. This location doubles for some of the Blackwater Bay and the wildfire scenes in the show. Also, it was used for shots of Sansa and Shae when they were talking on the pier about ships and places ahead before Petyr Baelish (Littlefinger) shows up to tell Sansa on how he’s planning to get her out of King’s Landing and back to her family.
Stop 5
Fort Lovrijenac doubles as the Red Keep; a castle that overlooks the Blackwater Bay on in King’s Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms. It contains the Great Hall, a massive throne room where the Iron Throne is situated and is the home of the King or Queen. Dubrovnik’s monumental fortress St. Lawrence (Lovrijenac) was used a set for filming multiple scenes depicting quarters and exterior of the Red Keep including the Purple Wedding, tourney on King Joffrey’s name day, etc.
Stop 6
Following the descend ack to Old Town the tour takes you through the streets of King’s Landing where Rebellion versus Joffrey took place after he ordered his personal guard to execute the entire crowd. Find the location of scenes following the events of the Purple wedding, with Sansa fleeing to a ship off the coast, Jamie’s return to King’s Landing after his imprisonment, scenes of Littlefinger’s brothel and place where Tyrion speaks with Prince Oberyn Martell, the Red Viper of Dorne who came to seek revenge.
Stop 7
We come to the place of the infamous Walk Of Shame; which is the highlight of every Game of Thrones walking tour. In Westeros, it is a public ritual of punishment and penance in the Faith of the Seven. A confessed sinner walks a certain distance stripped of all clothing, exposed to the eyes and mockery of the population. After a time imprisoned, Queen Cersei confesses to having committed adultery. As she walks naked, she is accompanied by a Septa, repeatedly crying out “Shame!” and ringing a bell to attract people’s attention. The best photo opportunity.
Stop 8
From here the ferry is leaving to Lokrum Island.
Stop 9
Upgrade your experience by continuing beyond the city to Lokrum Island, a lush natural retreat used as the setting for Qarth in Season 2. This option includes all locations from the 2-hour tour, followed by a ferry ride to Lokrum, where you’ll visit Dubrovnik’s official Iron Throne and hear how the island was transformed for filming.
Stop 10
The tour ends with a visit to the Benedictine monastery on Lokrum Island, where visitors will have the opportunity to take photos on the Iron Throne
