Creator's Key Takeaways
We'd only planned on walking the walls, but since the pass was the same price as walls only ticket, that was an easy yes.
If you or someone in your group has mobility concerns, the walls might not be the best bit.
If Drovnik is on your itinerary, get to the city walls right when they open at 8:00 a.m. You'll beat the heat, you'll beat the crowds.

Walking the ancient City Walls of Dubrovnik was one of the most spectacular mornings of our entire Mediterranean cruise! Join us as we explore this stunning port stop from our Enchanted Princess sailing — a bucket-list experience for any cruiser but especially rewarding (and manageable) for senior travelers who plan it right. In this video: 🚌 Ship shuttle timing from Enchanted Princess to Dubrovnik's Old Town 🎫 The Dubrovnik Pass — why the 40 Euro combo ticket made sense for us 🧱 Walking all 1,080 steps of the City Walls (birds-eye views of the red-roofed Old Town on one side, open sea on the other!) 🏰 Minceta Tower — the steepest climb on the wall 🏛️ Exploring the Old Town below, including a surprise Game of Thrones souvenir shop ⏰ Our #1 tip: why arriving right at 8AM opening beats the mid-morning crowds MOBILITY NOTE: The City Walls involve significant stairs and walking (1,080 steps total) and are not recommended for those with mobility concerns. However, the Old Town below is flat, accessible, and just as charming — so there's a great option for every traveler in your group. We visited in mid-May and can't imagine doing this walk in the summer heat and crowds of July — so if you have flexibility in your cruise dates, keep that in mind!
