Private Taxi Transfer: Zadar Airport to Makarska Riviera. The fastest route via A1 Highway and Sveti Ilija Tunnel (avoiding Omiš traffic). Door-to-door service for Brela, Baška Voda, Makarska, and Tučepi.
The "Tunnel Route": Zadar to Makarska Riviera
Traveling to the Makarska Riviera? You have chosen the most beautiful part of the Adriatic, but also one that requires smart route planning.
- From Zadar Airport: approx. 200 km (2 hours)
- Traffic Logic: The coastal road through Omiš is a bottleneck. We prioritize speed by using the A1 Highway to Zagvozd and cutting through the Sveti Ilija Tunnel. This bypasses traffic jams and drops you straight into the heart of the Riviera.

Why Private Transfer is Essential for Makarska
Whether you are landing at Zadar Airport or traveling from Zadar city, public transport to Makarska is logistically difficult.
We Solve the "Steep Hill" Problem
The Makarska Riviera terrain is unique: the main road (Magistrala) is high up on the mountain slope, while hotels and beaches are steep down below.
- The Problem: Buses drop you on the upper highway. Walking down to Brela, Baška Voda, or Tučepi with heavy suitcases is difficult—walking back up is impossible.
- Our Solution: Our vehicles navigate the narrow, steep access roads. We drive you directly to your hotel reception or apartment door at sea level.
Ferry Connection: Drvenik & Makarska
Many guests use the Riviera as a transit point to islands.
- To Hvar (Sućuraj): We drive you directly to the Drvenik Ferry Pier (South Riviera).
- To Brač (Sumartin): We drive you to the Makarska Ferry Pier.
