Zagreb에서 Opatija까지 Private car transfer

While Opatija is on the Istrian Peninsula, it’s not actually in Istria County. This means you get the perfect weather and seaside charms of western Croatia with fewer crowds and lower prices than places like Rovinj and Poreč.

The fastest and easiest way to travel from Zagreb Airport to Opatija is by booking a custom trip with Daytrip's private door-to-door service. Alternatively, you can take a bus from Zagreb Airport to downtown and switch to another bus from Zagreb Bus Station to Opatija Bus Station.

A bus, train, flight, and Daytrip's private door-to-door service are the four ways you can travel from Zagreb to the coast of Croatia. However, trains and flights are only available to a limited number of coastal cities. Buses and Daytrip have the most extensive network in Croatia.

There’s no direct train from Zagreb to Opatija. In fact, Opatija doesn’t have a train station! While it’s possible to take a train from Zagreb to Rijeka, you’d then need to take a bus to Opatija. This ends up being slower, less comfortable, and more expensive than just taking a direct bus in the first place.

A day trip is certainly possible since Daytrip can whisk you from Zagreb to Opatija in only 2 hours. Zagreb’s inland location means it has no beaches. Therefore, traveling to the Istrian peninsula allows you to soak up the nation's turquoise waters. It's also a tiny city. So you can see its highlights within one day.

The shortest road distance from Zagreb to Opatija is 107 miles, which can take as little as 2 hours with Daytrip's private door-to-door service. However, leaving during Zagreb's rush hour traffic from 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM and from 4 PM until 6 PM can increase the duration by 30 minutes.
