Full description
Now you can experience these scenes yourself with the Game of Thrones Walk in Dubrovnik tour!
Follow in the harrowing footsteps of Cersei Lannister. Gaze upon the magnificent buildings that appear throughout the TV series. And indulge in the real-life history of the city, as your personal tour guide leads you along its ancient streets.
Around every corner of this city, there are iconic Game of Thrones filming locations to be found! The Pile Gate entrance to the Old Town has appeared numerous times throughout the TV series. Most notably, this is where King Joffrey is attacked by an angry mob.
Nearby is Pile Harbour. Flanked by two looming fortresses, this is often shown as the entrance point to King’s Landing. This is where we see Myrcella sail away to Dorne, and where Cersei waits expectingly as Jaime brings her daughter back.
Of course, Dubrovnik’s City Walls also play a large part in Game of Thrones. We often see characters plotting schemes as they walk along these medieval fortifications. They even receive damage during the dramatic Battle of the Blackwater. Thankfully, that was just TV magic, as the walls are a protected UNESCO World Heritage Site.
As part of the Game of Thrones Walk in Dubrovnik tour, you’ll also visit the Fort of St. Lawrence. This fortress and theatre overlooks the sea and is instantly recognisable as the Red Keep in King’s Landing. Many important scenes take place here, such as King Joffrey’s Nameday Tournament. This is also where Cersei plots to remove the Tyrells from King’s Landing.
And, when looking for iconic filming locations, you can’t forget the Jesuit Staircase.
These stone steps are instantly recognisable as the route up to the Great Sept of Baelor. Many scenes took place here, most notably Cersei’s Walk of Penance. This was the lowest point in her character’s arc, but as we all know, she got her revenge in the end.
There are plenty more famous filming sites throughout the whole of Dubrovnik’s Old Town. And your guide will be sure to show you them all. With so much to see, the Game of Thrones Walk in Dubrovnik tour is not to be missed!
Locations (7)
2. Fort Lovrijenac / Red Keep
Fort Lovrijenac, (also called the Fort of St. Lawrence in English) is nestled in the area just West of Dubrovnik’s old town. The fort is often referred to as ”Dubrovnik’s Gibraltar” due to its location residing at the top of a 27 metres high cliff. The fort spans three levels, and it’s unique triangular shape exterior immediately stands out.
The incredibly famous fort is seen as the iconic Red Keep on several occasions during Game of Thrones. One such episode is the tournament held on King Joffrey’s name day. Another memorable event is when Podrick, Bronn and Tyrion are spotted on the walls of the Red Keep following the Battle of Blackwater.
3. Dubrovnik West Pier / King's Landing Harbour
Dubrovnik’s West Pier is nothing less than stunning, offering spectacular views in person as well as on the TV screen. This location was used to capture King’s Landing Harbour in Game of Thrones, including the departure of Myrcella Baratheon to Dorne. It is further seen when Shae observed Sansa talking to Littlefinger, who offers her a way out of her desperate situation in Season 3.
A deleted scene which would have appeared in Season 3 also captured a moment when Tywin Lannister and Pycelle are sat on the edge of the dock fishing side by side.
4. Pile Bay / Blackwater Bay
Located in the Western region of Dubrovnik’s old town is Pile Bay. Offering stunning views of Fort Lovrijenac and Fort Bokar, this area was used as a transport hub for seafarers arriving in the city. Pile Bay is the filming location of Blackwater Bay in the Game of Thrones TV series.
One of the most iconic scenes is the dramatic Battle of Blackwater Bay. This is also the locations where Lord Baelish discussed plans for Sansa to escape, and the same spot was used again to shoot the scene of Robert Baratheon’s bastards being murdered.
5. Pile Gate / King’s Landing Entrance
Pile Gate is the main entry point to the old town of Dubrovnik, contributing to the defence of the city for centuries and protected by Fort Bokar. In the present day, the gates remain open to the public.
Pile Gate is seen as the King’s Landing Entrance during Season 3, when Jamie Lannister arrives at King’s Landing to visit his sister Cersei. Upon entering Pile Gate, the area opens up to reveal the place where the King’s Landing riot was filmed, when King Joffrey gets fruit thrown at him by the angry crowd during Season 2.
6. Jesuit Staircase / Walk of Shame Stairs
The iconic Jesuit Staircase ascends from Gundulić Square, and leads to Dubrovnik’s picturesque Jesuit church of St. Ignatius. This is the place where the memorable Walk of Shame begins, including the scene where the High Sparrow makes his speech before Cersei Lannister is stripped naked and is forced to repent her sins by walking down the staircase.
