The bus ride was great, very scenic. But I was supposed to reach split at 14.20. I reached closer to 15.30. The bus was stopping to pick up passengers at various bus stops

The journey was effortless from pick up to drop off. The bus was comfortable & the air conditioning helped. We stopped off once to allow passengers to stretch our legs or quick toilet stop before continuing. Highly recommend.

Bus was on time , our journey was 1.5 hours longer than advertised as we had to change buses. No explanation given . The 2nd bus was not as comfortable and stopped a lot along the way. 1st bus really modern & comfortable.

The trip was pleasant, the driver from Dubrovnik was professional, very nice and attentive. The drivers partner appeared to be angry and irritated…had a negative attitude.

Surprisingly pleasant. The bus arrived pretty much on time, the seats were rather comfortable, it had air conditioning (which made the bus somewhat cold, so bring a sweater). The scenery of the road between Dubrovnik and Split is stunning, and makes the trip really worthwhile. The toilet on the bus was not functioning. There was two 5 min breaks where you could use the rest room at the station, but it wasn’t the most pleasant experience (although not the worst either). And 5 min isn’t long. There was no usb port to charge a cellphone.

Relaxing bus ride. Relax and sightsee at the same time. No toilet on bus.

Toilet was not working, not enough breaks, took more people than seats in the bus. Everything was bad. took 5 hours to reach from Dubrovnik to Split,instead of 4.2. Asked 2 euros extra for each bag.

The route was awful and the bus was late which made me late for my catamaran. Also it was packed and people were standing in the bus.
