Zagreb Bus Station

Zagreb bus station (Autobusni Kolodvor) is a large structure that would never win any architectural prizes but has all you need to facilitate your arrival and departure. Built in 1987, it's all concrete and sharp angles but it has enough space for 88 terminals. (See a list of international and domestic buses from Zagreb) The Zagreb bus station is also where you get the bus to the Zagreb Airport.

Buying your Bus Ticket

The bus station has a series of counters; international tickets are sold at windows 11 and 12. You can pay by cash or credit card and you can reserve as far in advance as you like or at the last possible minute. As seats are assigned, it's wise to get a ticket early to have a choice of seats. In a hurry? You can also:

• buy your ticket at the new drive-in ticket counter in the parking lot. There's a 1HRK charge and you get 30 minutes free parking while you're waiting.
• reserve and have your tickets delivered to your Zagreb hotel. Call 060 313 333 (1.69HRK per minute; from Croatia only) before 3pm and they'll be delivered the same day. The price is less than 5HRK plus the telephone reservation charge of 9.70HRK.

You can check Zagreb bus schedules here but you cannot reserve tickets online.
