Transport: Zagreb has a compact city centre with all the main sights and
places of interest for visitors in close proximity to the major
hotels. Walking is therefore a good option. Those who need to
travel further afield can make use of the highly efficient tram
system, which has frequent services throughout the city connecting
bus and train stations and the main square, Trg Bana Josipa
Jelacica. Four tram routes also operate throughout the night.
Tickets for tram rides must be bought at newspaper kiosks, singly
or in packs of 10. Each ticket gives you 90 minutes of travel,
starting from when you first climb aboard and validate the ticket
in a machine. The alternative public transport is public buses.
Particularly useful is the inexpensive bus connection to the
airport from the city centre. There is a plentiful supply of taxis
in Zagreb, particularly at major hotels and the airport. Fares are
negotiable.
