Here you will find all operators and timetables for a
Bus from Zagreb to Istanbul
What are the most popular stations in Zagreb and Istanbul?
In Zagreb, you will usually depart from Train Station, Central Bus Station or Zapadni Kolodvor, while in Istanbul you will be arriving at Otogar Coach Station, Esenler Coach Station or Sultanahmet Square Bus Stop, but there are many more stops to explore in both locations.
How do I decide? Some tips and tricks from our experience
Are you having trouble deciding on how to get to Istanbul from Zagreb? With 8 connections between 1 Flight and Bus operators, it can be difficult to find the one ride that will make you happy. But we have some tips that can help you make the best informed decision. First of all, the best trip is always the one that meets all your needs, so make a list of all the things that you want from this journey and look for something that will satisfy all of them. Here we will go through some of the factors mostly commonly taken into consideration.
Look for the lowest price
Ticket price is usually the main concern: even if you can afford to pay more, why do it if there are cheaper options? Saving on the trip means that you can spend more on the vacation itself! Between Zagreb and Istanbul, you can pay as low as £52 with a Flight from Pegasus Group LTD.Travel duration
Time is also an important factor. An earlier departure may allow you to see a beautiful sunset or relax before an important event. And remember, time is money, so paying more for a shorter trip may be well worth it. For longer distances, flights are without doubt the best options, but be mindful of airport times and possible delays: a high-speed train may end up cheaper and faster! Here the quicker option is definitely the Flight from Pegasus Group LTD: you will get to Istanbul in just 2h 5m.Comfort makes all the difference
You should always take into account what your personal travelling preferences are. Is one hand luggage enough, or are you trasporting more? Would you like to have a snack during the journey? Can you relax in a busy compartment, or do you need space for yourself? Even among the same mode of transportation, different companies will offer you varying levels of comfort and amenities. The main operators connecting Zagreb and Istanbul are Croatia Airlines, Air Serbia and Lufthansa, but be sure to check what they have to offer!Save money with deals, and always compare
One last tip? Even if you live in Zagreb and Istanbul is your only destination, it may be wise to check the offers from and to nearby cities or, if you are flyng, nearby airports. Check the trips from Buzin or to Üsküdar, and look at flights from Zagreb Airport, and landing at Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen Airport.
