Dubrovnik airport transfers

Land in Dubrovnik and instantly relax as you’re whisked to your accommodation in a pre-booked airport transfer.

In this pretty walled city with beaches and great restaurants, you won’t want to waste any precious time on the task of getting from A to B. So book an airport transfer before you travel and know that you’ll be strolling around Dubrovnik’s Old Town in no time.

Dubrovnik Airport (DBV) is around a half-hour drive from the city centre and a transfer will make this picturesque journey simple. You’ll be able to choose between options including private transfers, cost-effective shuttles, make-a-statement limousines and minibuses. Whether you’ve got kids and lots of bags or simply want to make every part of your trip as stress-free as possible, you’ll appreciate strolling out of the airport into a vehicle that’s waiting for you.

Public buses run from the airport to Dubrovnik’s centre, and if you’re looking to keep costs down, they may seem tempting. But consider whether, after a tiring flight, it may be easier to get a pre-booked transfer straight to your hotel (or as close as possible if you’re staying in the pedestrianised Old Town). The time and energy you save may be worth the extra expense.

Shuttles can work out as a cheap option as you’ll share them with other passengers. But, unlike a bus, which has set stops, shuttles will take you as close to your hotel as possible. For slightly more, there are speedy shuttle services with a maximum of four stops.

If you’re travelling in a group, a minibus could be the best option for you as, the more people you share it with, the cheaper the price per head is likely to be. If you’re a couple and want to keep it as just the two of you, look at the options for private transfers.

Taxis may seem like a tempting option but consider a private transfer instead, where you can compare prices before you set off rather than haggling over rates. Alternatively, swap queuing with fellow tourists for a meet-and-greet welcome.

To see all of the transfer options in one place and to find the best deal for you, use the handy comparison service on TravelSupermarket. You can then budget for your transfers before your trip and know exactly how much you’ve got left to spend on the rest of your exciting adventure.
