The Ultimate Game of Thrones Tour Dubrovnik 2023

What will you see on the GOT tour in Dubrovnik?

During this great tour, you will have an opportunity to visit all the main filming locations of the Game of Thrones series and uncover exciting facts about the series you probably didn’t know. To give you an idea of what awaits you on this tour, we selected a few of them.

The Red Keep (Fort Lovrijenac)

There are a lot of scenes that have been filmed inside the Fort Lovrijenac (next to the Walls of Dubrovnik) that take place within the Red Keep – like the long dialogues between Cersei and Littlfinger in Season 1.

FUN FACT: If you want to have a wedding in style, you can rent the Lovrijenac fort.

The Purple Wedding (Gradac Park)

The Purple Wedding (where Joffrey gets poisoned) was filmed in Gradac park. You will be able to see this park and parking lot from the top of the Lovrijenac Fort. It is difficult to recognize the scenes because there were a lot of physical props added to the scene, like an extra statue in the middle of the fountain.

FUN FACT: While filming, they had to close off the whole parking lot next to the park for a few days, so the traffic situation in Dubrovnik was difficult for this part of the town.

The Riot (Pile Gate)

The riot starts when Joffrey orders the guards to kill everyone in the crowd after someone throws manure at Joffrey’s face.

This is another famous scene in Game of Thrones, and it is filmed at Pile Gate. Pile Gate leads into the Old Town, and you access it from a drawbridge.

The Walk of Shame (Jesuit Stairs)

The scene when Cersei had to walk naked in the streets of Kings Landing from the Great Sept of Baelor to the Red Keep (one of the gates where you can enter the Old Town Dubrovnik) is probably one of the most famous scenes in Game of Thrones. All the time, there was an annoying woman ringing a bell in her ear saying shame.

The first scene of this shot (where Cersei is standing on the top of the stairs of this street) is filmed on top of the Jesuit Stairs in Dubrovnik. The other scenes of this shot are filmed in other parts of Dubrovnik.

FUN FACT: In this street, there are a lot of restaurants and coffee bars. To film this scene, they had to pay a lot of money to all owners of these shops to close for the whole day. That is why this is the most expensive scene in Game of Thrones, shot in Dubrovnik.

City of Qarth: The Rector’s Palace

Qarth was filmed in different locations around Dubrovnik, like Minceta Tower (The House of Undying) and Rector’s Palace (when the Thirteen rulers of Qarth rejected Danaerys after she asked for help and ships). On this tour, you will have an opportunity to visit both.
