In addition, Eurolines offers connections to most other European countries, usually with a change in Germany.

Domestic Buses to Zagreb

As the nation's capital there are direct bus connections from Zagreb to nearly everywhere in the country. As elsewhere in Croatia, bus routes are handled by several different private operators with varied prices and routes. See more about Croatia bus travel.

You can check schedules, companies and prices at the Autobusni Kolodvor Zagreb (Zagreb bus station) and of course buy tickets online.

Note that taking a bus from Zagreb to Dubrovnik is a long trip, running from 8 1/2 to 9 1/2 hours. There is a nightly bus to Korcula Island but for other islands you'll need to take a bus to the nearest coastal town which is usually Split in the south and Rijeka in the north and then take a ferry from there.

As seats are assigned, it's wise to get a ticket early to have a choice of seats.

At the Bus Station

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. Click here for opening hours and more information about the Zagreb Bus Station.
