Private Jewish Tour

Dubrovnik is home to one of the oldest synagogues in Europe, making it an essential visit for those interested in how the Jewish people influenced this part of the world.

Shore Excursion Size:	Private Tour	Activity Level:	Moderate
Shore Excursion Type:	Cultural, Historic	Shore Excursion Duration:	4 hours
Food / Beverages:	No	Price per person:	upon request

Itinerary:

Jewish people first arrived in Dubrovnik in the 15th Century and made an important contribution to the Republic's Golden Age.
Today the Dubrovnik Jewish Community has less then 50 members, but throughout history this community has played a very important role in the development of the Dubrovnik Republic.

After entering the town, you will walk to the old ghetto area with your private guide and visit the synagogue which is one of the most cherished sites of Sephardic culture in the world. The combination of a 13th-century Gothic house with a 16th-century Sephardic synagogue interior makes this a special place.
The synagogue was heavily damaged by an earthquake in 1979 and then received further damage during the shelling of the city in 1991. Through donations from around the world, repairs were made and the small community was finally able to hold services again 7 years later.
Returning to the Stradun, (main street) you will view other fine buildings from the outside: the Sponza Palace, notable for its column courtyard with elaborate stone carvings; the Church of Saint Blaise; and Onofrio's Fountain.
At the end of the walking tour, free time will be available to tour the Old Town before transferring back to the ship.

Where does the ship dock?

The Port of Dubrovnik (with a Ship at Anchor in the Bay)

The ships dock at the Port of Gruz, approximately 2.5 km northwest of Old Town. It is about a 10 minute drive from the port to Old Town. Note that there is only space for two mega liners in the port and you may anchor in the middle of the bay and tender if there are too many ships for the port and the anchorage mentioned below. It is actually a very nice tender ride, as it is quite beautiful in the harbor's bay.

It is also quite possible that you might anchor off of Dubrovnik and tender into the Old Port (small ancient boat harbor right at the foot of the main street in Dubrovnik). This is an impressive way to enter the Old Section and well worth the tender process.
