Okay ride. It was an okay ride, comfy chairs. The bus did stop at normal busstops like it was a line bus. People got on and off at these stops and paid the driver for the ride.

Bus was 20 minutes late, it would have been nice if we would be able to see somewhere that there was a delay.

The driver was very good and helpful. He gave us suggestions about quickest way to reach airport. Driver was calm despite a long delay due to a serious accident.

No A/C? Bus arrived to Zagreb at the estimated time. Bus driver did not scan ticket code, did not believe I was on the correct bus despite the ticket being shown. No A/c on the bus at all, seats were worn down. Bus was 20 minutes late to pick us up.

It was sooo hot inside the bus. It departed and arrived on time. It was terribly hot inside the bus. I guess that the air con didn’t work. All of the passengers were very uncomfortable.

Smooth ride. The bus came on time and arrived shortly after the predicted time. The instructions are unclear. The ticket and the map do not mention stopping at Plitvice Lakes entrance 1. I had to ask the operator by email to confirm that the bus stops there. On top of that I had to check with locals and Google reviews to be sure that I am waiting at the right place.

Bus delay, incorrect bus stop location from email. Comfortable. Bus stop location from email is not correct, bus stop did not specify which direction it goes, bus did not come on time, I thought I missed the bus. People could buy ticket right on the bus, but clearly it is already over booked. Some travellers who booked ticket before the trip did not have a seat.
