Transportation to Airport from Rijeka City Center

Rijeka Airport

There are both budget-friendly and fast options for the passengers who want to come to Rijeka Airport from the center of Rijeka which is mentioned as one of the most beautiful cities of Croatia. One of the most important factors that determine the vehicle selections of the passengers coming from the center to the Rijeka Airport is the cost of the vehicles. In this sense, buses are more budget-friendly vehicles. However, airport buses can be partially challenging for passengers since they depart only from certain points. Taxis, which can be easily found in Rijeka city center without much difficulty, offer an easier and faster transportation compared to buses. Nevertheless, passengers who compare the prices of the taxis that provide a more convenient transportation with buses can find taxis expensive. The offices of the car rental companies located in the city center offer rental car alternatives that can be used both for transportation to the airport and for discovering the areas near Rijeka. Lastly, if you choose traveling to the airport as a more crowded group, you can use the vehicles of private transfer companies that you can easily find in the city.
