TIPS & TRICKS
Medieval Dubrovnik
Transportation from Airport to Old Town
Dubrovnik Airport to Old Town is approximately 21km. A taxi from airport is EUR30 and Airport transfer to bus station in Dubrovnik is 40,00kn. There are no railways or metro between the Airport to the Old Town.
The Old Town
There can be more than 200 steps between Buze Gate to Stradun. Yes, there are many steps within Dubrovnik Old Town. Entrance to some apartments or accommodations are along the steps. The only steps climbed within Dubrovnik to have a handrail are those leading to St Ignatius church, at the entrances of Revelin Gate or Pile Gate.
If traveling with roll-on luggage, I would suggest contacting your host to find out exactly where is the accommodation. There are accommodations with the selling phrase “good sea view” or “close to the beach”. I would consider the steps to climb before I secure the accommodation. There are some accommodations beyond the Old Town. However, not all are on flat land.
