Port logistics from Gruž terminal
Ships dock at Gruž (Gruz) commercial cruise terminal, 2.5 km from Pile Gate. Allow 10–15 minutes by taxi to the Old Town walls or 25–35 minutes on foot along the waterfront. Confirm your all-aboard time and keep a 60–90 minute buffer — summer queues at the city walls ticket office and Mount Srđ cable car can add 20–30 minutes to your return.
