Stunning, no other way to put it. We went up right before sunset (as that was recommended to us by a friend) and it was worthwhile. There is a lovely view once you get off the cable car but the best view can be seen by walking out from the little visitor area to the left. If you go down the dirt road to the end, you have arguably the best view of Dubrovnik. While there is a closer path/view, the one we had allowed for an unobstructed, breathtaking view. There also is an option to go off road quad riding, which would have been fun as well. We went as the last tour of the day was wrapping up and we would have considered doing this, had we known about it before hand. We were able to buy our tickets from the counter at the bottom of the cable car without needing to do it in advance. I believe this would only work during “off peak” (we went in late May) and perhaps it would be worth booking ahead of time during peak season (June-August).

You MUST do this in Dubrovnik, especially if you have limited mobility like myself. It's the best way to see the most upon arrival. We arrived by cruise ship and needed to walk a short distance to the cable car entrance (just a small ways past the walled city entrance - e.g. GOT filming area). There's no need to buy tickets in advance or through shore excursion travel agencies, as it is readily available at the kiosk at the Cable Car entrance and is usually much cheaper on site. You buy a RT ticket and it's a short ride up. Once up there are shops, restaurants, and several look out areas including a large Christian Cross... I'm not sure what this area is called, sorry. We took pictures and just sat up there and enjoyed the view. Nearby there's an area to rent 4x4 ATVs for tours... we aren't the adventurous type, nor were we in the season, but it is an option. Enjoy the views and take it all in.

I honestly would not recommend doing this, as to be honest once you’ve reached the summit there’s not really much to see or do. I purchased my return ticket from a vendor on the street below before walking up to the cable car station. But (FYI) you can also purchase tickets at the station whilst queuing and not incur a transaction fee if you’re paying by card. I queued for around 20 minutes, anticipating the fantastic views at the top. Once arriving at the top, yes you do get an aerial view of Dubrovnik - but this is obscured by the lift pylons and cables which carry the cable car. On top of that you then have to contend with countless “Insta Imbeciles” who also obscure any possible picture opportunities with their self importance and countless retakes. There is a restaurant at the top, where I did stop by for a cocktail - as I was so disappointed with the whole experience I thought I might as well reward myself with a Pina Colada at 11.30am. Judge me, I don’t care.

The cable car is pricey at 200 kuna per person, but we were pressed for time in Dubrovnik, so we took the trip up. The wait for the cable car wasn’t more than a couple minutes each time. The view on the way up is beautiful, and the full ride is a short three minutes or so. While the view from the viewing deck is pretty, it’s relatively crowded and the view is partially obstructed. Highly recommend walking outside the back of the viewing deck and up the gravel road to the west. You only need to walk a couple of minutes or so, and you’ll see another gravel road to the left. There will be a little path that those who hike up the mountain take. From here, the view is spectacular. We got lucky and ran into a crowd of 100 goats on the walk back and watched them snacking on the brush for about 20 minutes. Probably a highlight of our time in Dubrovnik.
