The Dubrovnik Food Tour is a three-hour guided walk through the Old Town of Dubrovnik, in Croatia's Dubrovnik-Neretva region, run by Do Eat Better Experience (Do Eat Better Srl), a food-tour company that operates culinary walks in several European destinations. The route starts at the monument of Marin Drzic on Poljana Marina Drzica and winds through the limestone lanes of the walled city, pausing at small family-run eateries, bakeries and wine bars that a visitor following the main Stradun alone would likely miss. The itinerary includes at least four food stops with one serving at each, so the tour works as a full meal rather than a snack. Dishes follow the Dalmatian table: Mediterranean tapas of local cheese, cured meats and olives, a local wine tasting, black cuttlefish risotto coloured with ink, burek pastry, and a finishing scoop of gelato. The balance leans savoury, with the sweet course held for the end. Included in the price are the food and drink at every stop and an English-speaking guide who explains the city's Ragusan trading history, the role of the Republic of Dubrovnik in shaping local cooking, and how Italian, Ottoman and Balkan influences meet on one plate. Non-alcoholic alternatives to wine or beer are available on request, which also suits younger participants. Transport is not needed because the whole route is on foot inside the walls; hotel transfers and gratuities are not included. Groups are small, from two to twelve guests, which keeps the pace conversational and allows the guide to adjust stops to the group. Departures run daily at 10:45 AM and 5:30 PM. The price starts from about EUR 99.95 per person, children aged 0 to 3 are free and ages 4 to 10 pay a child rate. Free cancellation applies up to 24 hours before the start. Visitors with allergies or dietary restrictions should state them at booking so the guide can arrange substitutions where the venues allow. The tour suits first-time visitors who want orientation, local context and a substantial meal in one outing, and it pairs well with a walk on the city walls afterwards.

Tips for visiting

- Report allergies or dietary needs when booking so substitutions can be arranged.

- Choose the 5:30 PM departure in summer to avoid the midday heat.
- Cancel free of charge up to 24 hours before the start if plans change.
When to visit
Available year-round; the evening departure is cooler in summer, while spring and autumn bring milder weather and fewer crowds in the Old Town.
Accessibility
The route is entirely on foot over uneven stone paving and some steps inside the Old Town, so it may be difficult for wheelchair users; guests with mobility concerns should check with the operator before booking.
