 | Dubrovnik Transportation | Tips 1 - 10 of 106 |  |
Popular Transportation | Miscellaneous Transportation Tips | All Tips (106) The main bus station is located about 3 km outside of the Old Town next to the port in the suburb called Gruz. I stayed in a private home in Gruz my first night in Dubrovnik, but I'd recommend spending a little more and staying in or closer to the Old Town if at all possible. Dubrovnik is well serviced by bus from all over the country and there is a local bus station right across the street from the station. It costs 8kn to buy a one way bus ticket for most locations within the city (10kn if you buy the ticket on board from the driver). To give you an idea of some of the long routes, I took the bus between Split and Dubrovnik (89kn, 5 hours) and between Dubrovnik and Mostar, Bosnia Hercegovina (70kn, 3 hours). Zagreb will take you about 11 hours. There are also routes to Sarajevo, Frankfurt and Trieste. Leave a Comment Theme: BusPhone: 020 23-088

 | |  |  | Border Crossing | Tip Rating:   |  |  | |  |
We were staying in Herceg-Novi, Montenegro, so to get to Dubrovnik, we drove up the coast and into Croatia. The border crossing is not a big deal, although going into Croatia is much quicker than coming back into Montenegro. There was no wait at all going north into Croatia. Croatian customs merely looked at our passports, stamped them and told us to have a pleasant stay. Entering Montenegro (and this happened to us twice) is a bit more time consuming. At both the Bar and Croatia-Montenegro border frontiers, there was a wait – 3 hours in Bar at the ferry terminal, and about 20 minutes between Croatia and Montenegro. Montenegro Customs will examine all the documentation you have for your car as well as your “Proof of Insurance”. No, your wallet sized Allstate card will not suffice. Before we got here, I had heard mixed things about whether you needed this so-called insurance or whether you didn’t. Trust me, you do, although I suspect it would not have done me a damn bit of good if our car had gotten smashed up in Montenegro. In Bar, we couldn’t get out of customs without purchasing it on the spot, and at the Croatian-Montenegrin border, they asked for the proof again. The price for this piece of paper that has nothing to do with insurance, but everything to do with an entry fee to Montenegro, was $15 Eurodollars. On the bright side, some things in life are free. While we were waiting at the Montenegrin border, some young girls were passing out tourist guidebooks for Montenegro, which were about 75 pages in length and quite helpful with nice maps.

In some places, everything is stone and sun burnt vegetation. In other places, a wonderful and refreshing landscape of cypress is growing ! Why ? The soil may be different, but moreover, there must be some moisture in the soil that allows such an amazing vegetation. Leave a Comment Theme: Car/Motor Home
