    I just got back from Croatia the other day and my fiancé and I both thought the Old Town of Split was way more enjoyable than the Old Town of Dubrovnik for a variety of reasons. Both are amazing - just spend time in both and a couple of islands to get a well rounded experience.

Could you let me know if it was difficult to fly in certain areas in Dubrovnik? Were there any restrictions, or did authorities give you a hard time at all? Hoping to film tons of footage with my drone without issue! Thanks!

    Hello Margaret, thank you! Yes, we've used in the past Uber in Dubrovnik and had no issues at all. Also worth checking the Bolt app, is an alternative to Uber and often it offers better prices too. We stayed in the same hotel and it was very short drive to the old town. I am certain that it will be very easy to use any of the ride share apps to get to the old town. Have fun in Dubrovnik, we are very exited for you!

    No need to be sorry :) . As far as I am aware it was mandatory for heavier drones to have insurance. I usually fly my DJI Mini 3 PRO which falls in category under 250gr. I think for for light drones it was more of a recommendation.

Quality food here that's comparable there is way more expensive in Las Vegas. This means great food in Croatia costs less.
