Family holidays in Dubrovnik

Family trips with short distances and plenty of safety.

Dubrovnik in Kroatien is a destination that Family plans for families, focusing on children, safety and short distances. Behind it stands Swiss Vibes, a Swiss travel agency with video consultation, which puts together family trips with short distances. The planner asks about family and period, and on the video call Swiss Vibes clarifies the details.

Why this trip

Dubrovnik is a city that, with its walls, towers and sea, immediately reminds children of a knight's castle. From May to June and from September to October the lanes are less crowded and the water is still warm enough for swimming. On the city walls you can walk around the old town on foot, so choose the early morning hours so that the stones are still cool. The Bokar Tower and the viewpoints above the old town offer lovely views that make children marvel too.

A boat to the island of Lokrum takes families to a quiet park with peacocks and rocks for swimming, a welcome break from the bustle. With somewhat older children an excursion to Krka National Park with hiking trails and waterfalls is possible, but it requires a whole day and long walks. The flight time is around 1.5 hours, which is short enough to reach the water with children on the day of arrival. Hvar, Split and Zagreb are nearby, but Dubrovnik alone fills a week.

Your family discusses rhythm and accommodation in the video call with Swiss Vibes.
