  How to get here  
 

By airplane

Traveling by plane is a convinient and comfortable way to visit Dubrovnik. Many European companies have regular flights to Zagreb and from there the Croatian national carrier, Croatian Airlines, provides regular flights to Dubrovnik. The airport is called Čilipi airport and it is located about 17 km from the city center.
If you are arriving on a regular flight, there are regular buses departing from the airport to Dubrovnik. Travel time is around 20 minutes. For those preferring to take a taxi to Dubrovnik, there are taxi-cars waiting throughout the entire day (just outside the airport hall). You will probably be offered a price in advance, or you can demand that the price be determined by the taximeter.

When traveling from Dubrovnik, the departures of the regular buses from the main bus terminal are 90 minutes before the estimated takeoff time.

By car

Traveling by car is a great way to visit Dubrovnik, because it gives you the freedom to explore Dubrovnik Region as well. There are numerous places and towns to be seen and a variety of things to be done. If you plan to stay in a hotel, private accommodation or camp you might experience parking difficulties in Dubrovnik due to limited parking spaces available. If you are concerned about this issue, check with your accommodation provider, esspecialy if the accommodation unit is located in or around the Old Town of Dubrovnik.

If it happens that your car disappears from the place you remember leaving it, don’t panic at once. Dubrovnik has a car towing service (popularly called the “spider” ) which towes cars that are misplaced (wrongly parked) to a special location where you can pick them up after paying a fine.

Since parking, especially around the Old Town can be a real adventure during summer, we recommend that you use public transportation. Dubrovnik has a good public transportation system with busses regularly going to and from the Old Town.
