Getting there
- Airport transfer
- Dubrovnik Airport (DBV) is 21.5 km away — around 27 minutes by private transfer in normal traffic. Times can be longer with border traffic, road works, accidents or summer congestion between 11:00 and 14:00. See airport transfer options.
- Taxi / Uber estimate
- Old Town ≈ 2 min · Cruise port (Gruž) ≈ 12 min · Airport ≈ 27 min. Uber operates in Dubrovnik but surges on cruise days and after midnight — a fixed private price is usually steadier. Check fare estimates.
- Longer journeys
- Journey times to Kotor, Mostar, Split and the islands.
Local insider tips
- Ploče Gate is far less crowded than Pile on cruise mornings — use it to enter the walls.
