My husband and I traveled to Dubrovnik in June 2018 and did the Extended GoT tour aka King's Landing + Qarth (Old Town + Lokrum Island) with Tonka. We are big Game of Thrones fans and thought the tour would be a great way to see Dubrovnik and get oriented to the town. Initial communication with Tom was easy and he was very responsive, accommodating and aware of the events happening in Dubrovnik. For example, Tom made us aware that 4 cruise ships were coming in on June 14 and recommended splitting up the tour to avoid the crowds or arranging another day. I feel that other companies would have just booked us to get in as many tours as possible, this was much appreciated!
Because of Tom’s knowledge, we chose to do a morning tour on June 15 and finish on Lokrum Island (where the replica Iron Throne is). Tonka was our tour guide and she was very professional, knowledgeable and gave great ‘insider’ information as she had been an extra in a few episodes.
A huge plus with this tour is that it is private, we saw many other tours with the guide holding up a sign and basically yelling to ensure the rest of the group heard. As we were leaving many of the attractions, the tour groups were coming which, also shows that this tour is aware and considerate about timing to ensure that you get the most from the tour.
Sorry Tom and Tonka that it took so long to write this review. We would highly recommend to any Game of Thrones fan or anyone interested in a tour of Dubrovnik and...
Read moreWe had an amazing time on the Game of Thrones tour in Dubrovnik with Tom as our guide! Tom was incredibly friendly and accommodating, tailoring our private tour to exactly what we wanted. He had a deep knowledge of both the show and the city, explaining how specific scenes were filmed and how they connected to Dubrovnik’s landmarks. He even brought large photos from the show, which made it easy to see where filming took place and what was added in post-production.
Tom's passion for the show really shone through, especially with his insider stories—his sister was even an extra on the show! This added a unique and personal touch to the experience. Even one member of our group, who had never watched an episode, thoroughly enjoyed the tour thanks to Tom’s fascinating mix of Game of Thrones trivia and historical facts about the city. It felt like a perfect blend of GoT and Dubrovnik history.
We were also impressed with the extra effort Tom put in—he sent us his pictures from the tour so we could refer back to them. Overall, we would highly recommend Tom’s private Game of Thrones tour in Dubrovnik. It’s a must-do for fans of the show and history...
Read moreThere are a few Game of Thrones tour agencies in Dubrovnik now but I chose this one because after enquiring about the price, it was actually the cheapest AND it was a private tour just for our group! They were very responsive right from when I scheduled the tour, and offered to meet us downstairs our rented apartment in Old Town which was very convenient. Our guide was Tonka who was very knowledgeable about the show and the books, and was even an extra in 2 scenes! She was super friendly and chatty and we had a fantastic tour snapping photos of the beautiful set locations, she helped us take as many photos as we wanted and never hurried us, the 2 hour tour took us almost 3 hours because our group chose to stop and take photos of everything! I'd highly recommend this tour for any GoT fans, just send them an email to check their price against the other agencies and I bet they'll offer...
