Croatia - moving around the country

In the absence of bicycle routes, it is also safe to move along motor roads, since Croats have great respect for bicycle riders. Please note that it is possible to travel by plane within the country. Airports can be reached by taxi, by shuttle bus or by bus. In this case, it is worth considering that not every airport terminal is run by city buses.
