A pricey family getaway

#familytravel I think Dubrovnik coupled with some more of Croatia can make for a very nice Family travel. Between my last trip to Dubrovnik almost a decade ago and then a family trip earlier this year. A lot has happened. The prices have shot up unreasonably. So much for enjoying GOT. While it is not longer an affordable backpacker destination. There are better options in Croatia for that. But for shorter holidays like the ones you go with family. It might still be doable. As you still get to enjoy all that Dubrovnik offers. Dubrovnik is one of the most popular walled cities in the world. Personally i rate it high on my list of mediaeval destinations. I like that Dubrovnik seems spotlessly clean, not only in the old town. But also in the modern parts. I also like the fact the way the new houses integrate perfectly into the landscape - there are no horrible, concrete blocks and heavy architecture known in post-communist states. The size of Dubrovnik also works to its advantage. It's just perfect, small enough if you want to see its beautiful old town in one day by just walking around. And big enough if you want more and like to be active. You can hike the Sdr hill - we took the cable car one way up and then walked down, this way we could admire the absolutely amazing, bird's eye view over the old town as well as many islands surrounded by the crystal clear, azure Adriatic sea. The sun, the weather and the beaches! Dubrovnik has an amazing, Mediterranean climate which guarantees a lot of sunny days throughout the year. The crystal clear waters and the beaches are also beautiful - especially contrasting with the view of the spectacular walls of the old town. #familytravel #croatia #got #dubrovnik
