Dubrovnik Game of Thrones Tour + Lokrum & Iron Throne option
Overview
On this Game of Thrones tour in Dubrovnik you’ll visit the best sites where King's Landing scenes were filmed. You may even hear stories and gossip from behind the scenes as some of the tour guides were Game of Thrones extras and stand-ins.
What you’ll do
Our Game of Thrones tours starts next to the Large Onofrio's Fountain inside the Old Town (next to the Hard Rock Cafe) where you will meet our representative holding a red umbrella with Dubrovnik Walking Tours sign. After group assembles our guide will introduce him/herself and off we go to a 2hour adventure visiting places from our favorite TV show.
From the meeting point we start our walk towards the West entrance to the Old Town; Pile Gate. Here we will look at some of the scenes from Season 2 & 3. Namely, scenes when the royal procession including King Joffrey is subjected to the jeers of the starving crowds. Joffrey ordering his outnumbered personal guard to execute the entire crowd, sparking off a city riot and the return of Jaime Lannister to the city with Brienne of Tarth. No one from the crowd recognizes Jaime while he slips into the city incognito.
The path leading under Pile Gate drawbridge gets you to the docks of King’s Landing. Visit the beach where the royal entourage including King Joffrey, Queen Cersei Lannister, Tyrion and Sansa Stark are at the docks seeing off Princess Myrcella to Dorne, where the Gold Cloaks were ordered to kill all of King Robert Baratheon’s bastards or where Tyrion goes to the city walls (Fort Bokar) with Lord Varys to discuss strategy to win the battle of Blackwater Bay.
On the way to the steep staircase to the Red Keep, we stop at one of the piers of Dubrovnik western bay. This location doubles for some of the Blackwater Bay and the wildfire scenes in the show. Also, it was used for shots of Sansa and Shae when they were talking on the pier about ships and places ahead before Petyr Baelish (Littlefinger) shows up to tell Sansa on how he’s planning to get her out of King’s Landing and back to her family.
Fort Lovrijenac doubles as the Red Keep; a castle that overlooks the Blackwater Bay on in King’s Landing, the capital of the Seven Kingdoms. It contains the Great Hall, a massive throne room where the Iron Throne is situated and is the home of the King or Queen. Dubrovnik’s monumental fortress St. Lawrence (Lovrijenac) was used a set for filming multiple scenes depicting quarters and exterior of the Red Keep including the Purple Wedding, tourney on King Joffrey’s name day, etc.
