Transfers from Split Airport to Split

Split Airport to Split: Transfers and Taxi

This is the second-largest city after Zagreb and is no longer thought of as an industrial backwater. It has successfully reinvented itself as a city where urban life and antiquity fully come together.

Its historic centre is inside a Roman palace—and it’s more than just pretty decoration. This palace is a full-functional high street that is home to its leading commercial outlets, and the city’s restaurants and nightlife scenes.

There is also the beach, the coffee culture, and the option to go island hopping. When we say coffee culture, this isn’t about grabbing a coffee and then leaving. This is a city that takes coffee drinking very seriously, and you can enjoy an experience of what it is to properly enjoy coffee.

Transfers from Split Airport to Split

From Split Airport to Split, the transfer journey takes around half an hour and costs $32USD. We also offer affordable options for larger groups, or couples with lots of luggage.

The cost of a transfer service includes your driver meeting you upon arrival, helping with your luggage and taking you directly to your accommodation, so you don’t have to wait.

There is also a cancellation service available in case anything goes awry with your travel plans. And your driver will wait up to an hour after your flight is scheduled to land. On the website, you can also find other additional services and see how much they cost.

Taxi from Split Airport to Split

A trade will cost $40USD and takes 30 minutes. This price is if you pre-book your car. If you queue up at the air hub, the cabs will charge you based on the metre: make sure you agree on a price before you get in the car.

If you are going to pay more for a taxi, you will want to do choose a reputable company. For example, Croatia’s two largest companies, EkoTaxi and Cammeo have apps you can download and make your booking from.

An Uber for the same journey will cost roughly the same as a taxi. Although, if you arrive on a quiet day it may be $5 or $6USD cheaper.

Public Transport

There is no train from the air hub to the city centre.

You may want to take bus 37 or 38. The bus costs $3USD and takes forty minutes. The bus leaves every 20 minutes and goes to the city bus terminal Sukoisan. This bus terminal is around 1km from the city centre.

Some hotels and resorts offer a shuttle service from the air hub to the city. Typically, this is included in the price of your accommodation, and you will receive a shuttle ticket. The journey only takes 22 minutes.

When it comes to paying buses and cabs, you are technically supposed to use the official currency of Croatia which is the Kuna. However, buses and cabs may accept Euros, although any change you receive will be in Kunas and you can’t expect the exchange rate to be all that great.

The easiest thing to do is to hire in advance a transfer, it’s cheaper than a cab or Uber, and more convenient than public transport.

About the Route

The trip from the airport to the city centre only takes half an hour with light traffic. However, it can take up to 45-50 minutes with heavy traffic. Most of this journey goes through towns and suburbia. For all that though, you will be treated to some scenic views of the ocean as you drive along.

Depending on where your accommodation is, you may get to drive past the amazing former-Roman palace and get an understanding of the beauty and the rich history of this city.
