Mid-coast launching point for Plitvice Lakes, Krka and the Dalmatian islands. We connect Zadar to all major Croatian cities and across the borders to Slovenia, Bosnia, Montenegro and beyond.
Zadar sits on the mid-Dalmatian coast, roughly halfway between Split and Rijeka and closer to Plitvice Lakes than any other major Croatian city. The compact peninsula Old Town (Sea Organ, Roman Forum, St Donatus) is car-free, but everywhere outside the historic core is reached by road. The bus station is a 15-minute walk from the peninsula; the ferry terminal at Gaženica is 4 km south.
For day trips to Plitvice (132 km, ~2h), Krka (1 h), the Pag bridge or Šibenik, a private transfer arrives at the gates when they open and leaves when you say so — not on a tour-bus schedule. For onward travel down the coast (Split, Dubrovnik) or across the Velebit mountains to Zagreb, transfers skip the bus-station overhead.
Zadar Airport (ZAD) is 9 km from the centre — one of Croatia’s fastest airport-to-city hops. We also handle ZAD pickups bound for Plitvice, Šibenik or further afield, with flight tracking and 60 minutes’ free waiting included.
