OOOPS, my car is gone
If it happens that your car disappears from the place
you remember leaving it, dont panic at once. Dubrovnik has a car towing
service (popularly called the spider ) which towes cars that are misplaced
(wrongly parked) to a special location where you can pick them up after
paying a fine.
Since parking, especially around the Old Town can be
a real adventure during summer, we recommend that you use public transportation.
Dubrovnik has a good public transportation system with busses regularly
going to and from the Old Town.
