Pay Extra for luggage on Intercity Buses

by blint

When travelling on the buses between cities you have to pay an additional charge for every piece of luggage you put in the hold. As you are putting your baggage underneath a man will put a ticket on your bag and ask you for money. They never seem to speak English so it's worth learning the numbers 1 to 20 (see my local customs tips for how to say the numbers and more). From Zagreb to Split I think it cost something like 6 or 7 kuna though from Dubrovnik to Split it was more. It may have been up to 14 kuna. I suppose it depends on the companies.

Tram tickets

by blint

You buy your tram tickets from the news stands by them tram stops. One ticket costs 6,50 kuna. You can't buy tickets on the trams.Zagreb's trams are like the London underground or the Madrid Metro. Just like these places the trams get equally as packed (standing room only).There don't seem to be any city buses either in the old part. Trams are the main form of transport to move around the city.

by Gili_S

As Croatia being a major tourist attraction for many decades, flying is very popular and there are international airport in every major city. Dubrovnik, Rijeka, Split, Zadar & Zagreb to name a few. You can fly by national airlines, charter and budget airlines, so check all the possibilities to find the best offer.

Buses in Croatia

by madregus

I don´t know if this is a rule or an exception, but we took a bus from Zadar to Trieste and had to pay about 3 euros for the luggage (I had spent all my kunas, so at least we were lucky to be allowed to pay in euros...)

Trains

by diocletianvs

Train network in continental part of Croatia is extensive and connects all the major towns, while the one connecting it with the coast is rather limited. Istria is still connected by rail only to Slovenian network, while Dubrovnik isn’t connected to railroad network at all. Main passenger route is the one connecting two largest cities - Zagreb and Split. Since July 2004 new tilting trains are introduced on this route but so far are unable to reach top speeds. After the extensive railroad reconstruction is finished (in 2006/07) trains will run on this route in less than 5 hours. Today (2005) it still takes 5,5 hours, which is faster than the conventional trains that need between 8 and 9 hours. For those wanting a good night sleep night trains are better (although much slower) option. (Update Summer 2005: even if you don't want good night sleep, but want to save 50 kunas take the night...

Air travel within Croatia

by diocletianvs

Croatia Airlines has flights within Croatia connecting Zagreb with Dubrovnik, Split, Zadar, Brac and Pula. On domestic flights you can get very good prices for as low as 100 kn (15 Eur) + taxes for one-way Zagreb – Dubrovnik or Zagreb – Split flights. The earlier you book your flight there are more chances you’ll get one of these deals. Recently Croatia has introduced FlyOnLine system where you can buy your tickets online using credit cards and pick them up on the airport so if you know your dates and book early flying cheap within Croatia is not a problem.

jadrolinja ferries

by miromi

the jardrolinja ferries are efficient, comfortable, affordable, and the best way to go down the coast of Croatia. If you happen to get cabins watch out for any randy neighbors: I was kept up all night by an orgy going on in the next room. Something about sea travel induces people to "freak out". Sailing from Rijeka to Split or Dubrovnik costs between 20 EUR - 40 EUR

The Ferry line to everywhere

by Callavetta

One of the best ways to get around Croatia is by ferry. This can be the big liners, like the Marco Polo pictured here, that sail from Rijeka to Dubrovnik in 22 hours, stopping along the way at several island ports. Or one can couple that with one of the many smaller ferries that go from mainland to island or island to island. It is important to familiarize yourself with schedules. The ferries run less frequently during the low and shoulder season. In May the big ships like the Marco Polo runs three times a week. In July and August that becomes a daily trip. The Marco Polo has cabins which provide various levels of comfort. I booked a single room with a sink but toilet down the hall for 90 euro. Many people sleep on the ferry decks and in the lounges. My only negative comments about my cabin are that when the lights were out it was pitch black and I felt like I was in a coffin! I had to...

Speed boats

by croisbeauty

In case you want make day-trips to the most attractive islands, such as Hvar, Mljet, Korcula etc., I suggest you this speed boats called "hidrogliser". It takes about one hour to get to the island you choose to visit. Traveling is very comfortable, speed and air-conditioned.

Ferry

by croisbeauty

There are 1185 islands, islets and cliffs in the Adriatic, however, not all of them inhabitated. All inhabitated islands are connected to the mainland by the ferry-boats, which travel frequantly in both directions, especially during the summer season.In case you need specific information, contact www.jadrolinija.hr.
