Short answer
Yes, if you are going to walk the City Walls. The 1-day Dubrovnik Pass costs EUR 40, which is the same as an adult City Walls ticket from March to November 2026, and it adds Fort Lovrijenac, the Rector's Palace, the Maritime Museum, eight more museums and galleries, and 24 hours of city buses. The 3-day pass costs EUR 50 and the 7-day pass EUR 60. The pass does not include the cable car, the airport bus, suburban buses to Cavtat or Mlini, or the Lokrum boat, although the 3-day and 7-day passes give a discount on Lokrum.
| Pass | Price | Buses | Sights |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-day | EUR 40 | 24-hour city bus ticket | 11 sights |
| 3-day | EUR 50 | 72-hour city bus ticket | 12 sights (adds Bukovac House) |
| 7-day | EUR 60 | 168-hour city bus ticket | 12 sights (adds Bukovac House) |
The official site lists one price for each pass. Children under 7 do not need a pass: they get free entry to the museums and galleries and free city buses when they are with an adult who holds one.
What the Dubrovnik Pass includes
Every pass includes one entry to each of these sights:
- City Walls and Fort Lovrijenac
- Rector's Palace
- Maritime Museum
- Ethnographic Museum
- Marin Držić House
- Dubrovnik Natural History Museum
- Franciscan Monastery Museum
- Museum of Modern Art Dubrovnik
- Dulčić Masle Pulitika Gallery
- Pulitika Studio
- Archaeological exhibitions
The 3-day and 7-day passes also include Bukovac House. You can visit each sight only once, and you do not need to book a time for any of them.
What it does not include
- The cable car. It is not on the list of sights, so you pay EUR 30 return for an adult. See is Dubrovnik expensive for other prices.
- Transport to and from the airport. The official pass FAQ says it is not included.
- Suburban buses. Only city bus lines are covered, so the bus to Cavtat or Mlini is not, even with the 3-day or 7-day pass.
- Lokrum. The boat and Reserve ticket costs EUR 30 for an adult. The 3-day pass gives 20% off and the 7-day pass 30% off. The 1-day pass gives no Lokrum discount.
When the pass saves money
A typical first day from March to November: the City Walls (EUR 40), the Rector's Palace (EUR 15), the Franciscan Monastery Museum (EUR 8) and a 24-hour bus ticket (EUR 5.31) cost EUR 68.31 with separate tickets. With the 1-day pass the same day costs EUR 40.
In December: the City Walls cost EUR 20, so the pass pays off once you add two museums. The walls, the Rector's Palace and the Franciscan Monastery Museum cost EUR 43 with separate tickets.
When it does not pay off: if you are not walking the walls, you rarely save money. The Rector's Palace costs EUR 15 on its own and the combined Dubrovnik Museums ticket EUR 20, both less than the EUR 40 pass.
For teenagers: a child's City Walls ticket for ages 7 to 18 costs EUR 15, and the official site lists no child version of the pass, so a separate walls ticket is usually cheaper for older children.
How the pass works
Activation. The pass starts the first time you enter a sight, pick up your bus ticket, or use a partner discount. The 1-day pass then runs for 24 hours, not until midnight. The 3-day and 7-day passes run for 72 and 168 consecutive hours.
Buses. On your first city bus ride, scan the pass on board and you receive a bus ticket for the whole validity of the pass. Keep that bus ticket, because it cannot be reissued, and scan it on every ride.
Local tip: the pass does not get you a separate entrance at the City Walls. Pass holders queue in the same line as everyone else, so in summer go early in the morning.
On your phone. If you buy online, the pass arrives by email, and you can show the QR code on your phone at every sight and on the bus.
