Once you arrive at the historic botanical gardens, spend 45 minutes to one hour wandering its rows of gardens, fountains, exotic plants, and flowers, which its founders have collected since the 15th century. Take in the beauty of its easily recognizable floral pathways that doubled as the backdrop of the Royal Gardens of King's Landing, where Jamie Lannister learned to duel Bronn with his left hand.

Ivo and GOT tour was the GOAT of Dubruvnik!!!
July 23, 2023
So started out with a friendly face and lots of talking. Ivo answered all of our ignorant croatia questions with grace and kindness. He was so knowledgeable and SO patient and gave us lots of laughs! He took pictures and even was patient with me when I wanted to pet a horse! 😂 He was supposed to take us back to our meeting point at the port but we were starving by the end of our tour and he gave us an off the beaten path restaurant recommendation and it was AMAZING! Best tour guide ever, best tours with Horizon and best food! We even later asked for Horizon to pick us up from the restaurant and take us to old town and they did and Aki was just as personable and sweet! Cheaper than all the uber and taxi quotes too! Fast and friendly!
