Game of Thrones filming locations in Dubrovnik, Croatia

Dubrovnik is, among other things, famous as Game of Throne’s primary filming location. Many of those scenes took place on Lokrum island, which is stunning enough with or without HBO’s filming. One of the best parts of this tour is you sitting on the Iron Throne, which is also on Lokrum, as a part of Game of Thrones Visitor Center, where we finish the tour. While filming, HBO gave the Iron Throne to Dubrovnik city, and it’s on Lokrum island, so if you are a true fan, you have to sit down on it and take a picture.
Before going to the island, we first show you Dubrovnik’s old town and Lovrjenac castle (Red Keep), where the majority of King’s Landing scenes happened. Lokrum is the final part of the tour, and you can choose to stay on the island for swimming or sightseeing, make sure to take a towel and bathing suits along with some sunscreen. Amongst Lokrum’s attractions are rabbits and peacocks that are walking freely amongst visitors.
It is immediately evident, once you see Dubrovnik’s streets that it was King’s Landing, the resemblance is uncanny. From Lovrjenac, we have a gorgeous view of Dubrovnik’s Old Town Walls. Here, you can see just how many similarities there are between real life and the fantasy world.

During this tour, we’ll visit:

– Lokrum island (City of Qarth)
– Pile bay
– Lovrjenac castle (The Red Keep)
– Dubrovnik’s old town

Lokrum Island (City of Qarth)

Qarth was filmed in different locations around Dubrovnik like Minčeta Tower (The House of Undying), Rector’s Palace (when the Thirteen rulers of Qarth rejects Danaerys after she asked for help and ships), Lokrum Island – the island in front of the Walls of Dubrovnik (the scene with the party where a woman with a veiled face gives a message to Ser Jorah).

The Red Keep (Lovrijenac Fort)

There is a lot of scenes that happened inside the Lovrijenac Fort (next to the Walls of Dubrovnik) that take place within the Red Keep – like the long dialogues between Cersei and Littlfinger in Season 1.

FUN FACT:

If you want to have a wedding with style, you can rent the Lovrijenac fort.

The Riot (Pile Gate & Pile Bay)

Pile Bay

Pile bay is the place where the Lannisters bid farewell to Myrcella. Shae and Sansa were watching ships in Pile bay before Lord Baelish discussed escape plans with Sansa.

There was also the scene of killing Robert Baratheon’s bastards in Pile bay.

Pile Gate

The riot starts when Joffrey orders the guards to kill everyone in the crowd after someone throws manure at Joffrey’s face. That is another famous scene in Game of Thrones, at Pile Gate. Pile Gate leads into the Old Town, and you access it from a drawbridge.

The Walk of Shame (Spanish steps by Saint Ignatius Church)

The scene when Cersei had to walk naked in the streets of Kings Landing from the Great Sept of Baelor to the Red Keep (one of the gates where you can enter the Old Town Dubrovnik) is probably one of the most famous scenes in Game of Thrones. All the time, there was an annoying woman ring a bell in her ear saying shame.

The first scene of this shot is filmed on top of the Spanish steps in Dubrovnik, by Saint Ignatius Church. The other scenes of this shot are filmed in the different parts of Dubrovnik.

FUN FACT:
In this street, there is a lot of restaurants and coffee bars. For shooting this scene, they paid a lot of money to the owners of shops for being closed the whole day. That is why this is the most expensive scene in Game of Thrones shot in Dubrovnik.

City of Qarth: The Rector’s Palace

Qarth was filmed in different locations around Dubrovnik like Minceta Tower (The House of Undying), Rector’s Palace (when the Thirteen rulers of Qarth rejects Danaerys after she asked for help and ships), On this tour we will visit Minceta Tower and Rector’s Palace
