Dubrovnik Old Town – when to go..

Predicting visitors. There’s loads of articles online about how Dubrovnik old town can get overcrowded on certain days when the giant cruise ships pull in (not our small cruise ships that hold only 40 people though!).

Now there’s an app for predicting the number of visitors that uses machine learning (the branch of artificial intelligence) to predict the number of people in the Old Town on a given day. This data can be useful to both citizens and tourists to help better plan their visits to the Old Town and work out the best time to go. Give it a try! https://www.dubrovnik-visitors.hr/prediction
