About Velebit Tours
Bus is a convenient way of travel no matter whether you need to get to a neighboring town a couple of hours away or venture further afield crossing the whole country. Whatever your budget, buses have you covered. Express buses offer the most affordable ticket price for travellers who have very little money to spend. VIP options are geared toward those who do not want to compromise on comfort. Before you jump on a bus, make sure you choose the type of service which suits you best. For a long-haul trip look for a VIP or first-class coach which provides non-stop service to your destination or just call a minor number of stations along the way. Express or local buses in many cases may prove an acceptable choice for shorter trips, but longer rides are often not the best buy. Study the timetable before going as many long-haul destinations are served by night buses, and some offer wider seats or sleeper berths for such travels. Make an online reservation for your bus ticket with Velebit Tours. Other travellers’ reviews will help you to choose the best ticket and coach class.

Velebit Tours Ticket Prices & Bus Classes
One of the best things about bus travel is that you can almost tailor-make your trip adjusting it to your requirements for privacy and comfort. Different classes and types of buses cater to the different needs of travellers. The cheapest trips are normally offered by standard-class buses. They may be called local, express or ordinary. These are a good choice for shorter trips. Sleepers or VIP coaches are good both for longer and overnight trips. They may offer berths or wide soft reclining seats, sometimes with built-in massage options, blankets, soft drinks, and snacks, or more substantial meals on board or during toilet or refuelling stops. Travelling by night buses allows you to save on a hotel room, but to ensure the most comfortable ride do choose the class of your bus wisely. Prices always depend on the distance you ride and the type of coach. For some, even shorter trips, it is worth investing some extra money and buying a seat on a VIP bus as it can save you twice as much time as you spend travelling by an ordinary bus.
Travel by Bus: Pros & Cons
Pros of Bus Travel
- Bus is the best choice to get to destinations that are not connected by rail or planes. The network of buses often covers almost the whole country, and their routes are well and long-established.
- Opposite to air travel and sometimes rail travel, taking a bus does not require arriving at the bus station much in advance. Check-in, even on international routes, does not take much time. Luggage allowances are usually very traveller-friendly, and the fee for extra luggage, if limits are set, is normally not very high.
- Bus tickets can be more affordable compared to air or fast train tickets. There is always a choice of ticket classes for all pockets. Cheaper standard options may be a bit slow and do not offer top comfort, but anyway acceptable and bring you to your destination. On longer routes, toilets or toilet stops as well as snacks, water, and sometimes toiletries and blankets are almost always included in the price.
- If you are ready to spend more, some VIP coaches offer seating comparable to business class on a plane with wide soft reclining seats, blankets, fewer passengers, and many other perks to make your trip a pleasant journey.
Cons of Bus Travel
- Newer intercity bus terminals are very often located out of the city close to bigger highways to allow buses to avoid city congestion. Unfortunately, it may create extra challenges for travellers, too. Getting to such a terminal may be a problem as in some destinations there are restrictions on vehicles allowed to enter the terminal, and you will have to use special carriers to get there. This results in higher costs as prices may be inflated. Also do calculate extra time if you are travelling during rush hours, especially if you are not familiar with the traffic situation at your starting point.
- Buses are probably the means of transport which runs out of schedule more often than trains or planes. They are heavily dependent on the road situation which sometimes can be unpredictable – accidents, road construction works, detours, etc. This is especially true for travels during weekends, high season, or national holidays. Do keep this in mind and do not plan tight connections.
- Travelling on certain routes or during the most popular periods may require advanced booking. Bear in mind that it is not always possible to show up at the bus station and hop on the next bus – tickets may well be all sold out, so organize your trip accordingly.

Good for what it is. It was very inexpensive and it got us where we wanted to go. No complaints there. It's not the most comfortable but it isn't totally uncomfortable either. What I didn't like about the trip was that they sold too many tickets and one or two people had to sit on the floor. They also said rows 5 to 14 or whatever are free with no reservation and then they get on the bus an start shuffling everyone around because there were reservations given for the seats that are not supposed to have any reservations. Overall, it got us to Zadar and that is what matters. It's just small things.

Fast, efficient ride. We got to our destination on time. The bus was small, but the seats were comfortable. There could have been more room for luggage as we were in a very small vehicle. Some of the music the driver was playing was too loud and the stated time for breaks was inaccurate on one of the stops.

There was a bit confusion with seat reservation - we payed tickets online but couldnt reserve any seats so we sit somewhere randomly. However other customers who bought tickets in hard store had seat reservation? This is something worth fixing. Otherwise ride was good with nice view.

I have had the tickets online and we didn't have seats specified in the tickets, so we realised that maybe we had to go stand up all the trip. finally we had luck and the driver gave us two seats but it was very violent situation with people in the bus.

Good driver, deserves a better bus! The trip was excellent..until the bus lost engine power when we were going over the mountains. The driver was able to manage carefully, and got us to Rijeka only 15 minutes late..but the company really needs to get a new engine for this bus! That the bus was not in good maintenance.

Le car etait très en retard pour le voyage Zagreb-Zadar. Le car était très en retard, personne n’est venu nous voir pour nous dire de combien de temps était ce retard. Quand nous nous sommes renseignées, le personnel était très impoli, le chauffeur aussi était désagréable. Avec plus de 2h de retard au total, personne ne s’est excusé. Par ailleurs, le car pour l’aller et le car pour le retour étaient sales. .
