I´m planning a trip to Croacia by bus but so far I haven´t found any direct bus linking Split and Dubrovnic. The ones I found make several stops in the way and take quite a long travel time. Someone knows a company that runs direct buses(or even shared mini-buses or vans)? What are the timetables?

Buses are very frequent, see www.autobusni-kolodvor.com

When you say direct, do you mean one that doesn%26#39;t stop? Any bus that takes only 4 hours between Split and Dubronvik is a fast not stopping bus (except as the Bosnian border). That%26#39;s how long it takes; the roads aren%26#39;t fast. See www.ak-split.hr for timetables.

Many thanks, Jelsa and Jude. I had already checked the timetable at http://www.autobusni-kolodvor.com/en/. After the departure and arrival time, it appears a link to %26quot; stations%26quot; and by clicking it, a list of cities with arrival/departure times appeared. I guessed the bus would stop at all of them (up to 12!). Luckly, it will not stop at all.

There are definitely buses from Split to Dubrovnik, with possibly toilet stops. But at this time of year dont trust a 4hour trip - it will take more like 5-6hours. In this heat it could be nicer taking a ferry? We took a ferry from Dub to Split last Thursday, took 8 hours but we got a cabin in case we wanted to sleep, there was ample decking to sit outside in the beautiful weather, a restaurant and bar, and by far more comfortable than sitting on a bus. Gives you a good look around the islands too!
|||
Do you have any idea of the price of the ferry Dubrovnik/Split(individual cabin or deck ticket?0
|||
Price for a deck seat would be 17.5 kuna during high season and 14.5 for low. All information can be found on http://www.jadrolinija.hr/ Just look on prices on coastal lines.

Let me just say to you considering a bus drive...DO NOT if you like to live. We left today from Split with Promet Makarska d.o.o wich is supposed to be the best busagency. But the bus was PACKED with people standing in the middle of the bus, the bus driver was driving so fast. And getting out of Split and towards Makarska there are some damn steep roads with nothing separating the motorway from the cliff. The bus went in insane speed around the corners, people screamed and some ladies started crying - myself included. It was the worse experience ever, and after two times we tried to ask the busdriver to slow down we gave up. We went of in Makarska and found a private driver... I know it is a bit more expensive BUT I actually have never been so scared in my life. If I can recommend anything it would be to take the ferry or rent a car. MUCH safer..Just wish someone had told me:)
