Only spent two nights there but wasnt keen, although i know a few others whov been and have all enjoyed it. The place gets rammed during the day with coachloads of people on day trips. The food was pretty shan as well. I would reconmend Split as an alternative.

Spent 5 days in Dubrovnik with the ex in 2009.
Not been to many places (Oslo, Paris, Amsterdam, Prague, Malta, Isle of Man being the others), but the one place I would want to go back to was Dubrovnik.
Thought it was fantastic.

I stayed in Cavtat, beautiful wee place, and got the taxi boat over to Dubrovnik a couple of times. I'd agree that during the day it is pretty mobbed, but it's definitely still worth the visit. I liked the food there, I don't think you can write off a whole cities food as shan based on just 2 days there, you could be anywhere in the world and be unlucky with your choice of restaurant over just 2 days.
The city walls walk in Dubrovnik is an absolute must do. It's longer than you think it'll be when you start, but so worth it.
I had a beer over there called San Servolo (I think that's what it was called) which I thought was great. I've never had it anywhere but Croatia.

Can you fly direct from Edinburgh/Glasgow and how far is it from the airport?

Never been to Dubrovnik, had a great couple of days in Zagreb on the way to Maribor though, lovely city, loads of nice wee bars dotted along the river that runs through the centre of the city. Ljubljana was good too.

After a quick recap Ljubljana was the place with the riverside bars, Zagreb was still good though.

Went to Dubrovnik a few years ago with my wife for a week. Really enjoyed it the Old Town walled city is superb with lots of good restaurants and some nice bars tucked away down the many side streets. It was free to enter when I went.
You can also walk around the top of the wall round the city which has some great views.
There are some nice little beaches around the place if the weather is hot.
Also did a day trip to Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina which was worth seeing.

Couldn't get flights at a great price when we were both off work so opted for Malta instead. Not heard a bad word about it and their premier football outfit seem solid. 😉

Spent a good few hours there when on a cruise, definitely worth a visit. More so if you like Game of Thrones!
