Best Time to Visit
The best months to visit Zagreb are probably the shoulder months of May and September, when temperatures are warm, days are long enough, and the city is busy, but not too much. June, July and August are the hottest and busiest months of the year. Winters are quite cold and wet but still more pleasant than in other parts of the world.

    Passport & Visa

    Passport & Visa

    Citizens of European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA) countries do not need a visa to enter Croatia, only a valid ID. Many other countries, including the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, United Arab Emirates, Australia, and New Zealand, benefit from visa-free entry for short stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period. Visitors from visa-exempt countries must hold a valid passport and, starting in late 2025, will need to apply for an ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorisation System) authorisation online before travelling. For those requiring a visa, such as travellers from some Middle-East, African or Asian nations, a Schengen visa must be obtained prior to arrival. All travellers should ensure their passport is valid for at least three months beyond their intended stay.

    Public transport

    Public transport

    The local transport in Zagreb is shared between an efficient system of buses and trams that are run by ZET, the municipal authorities. Trams and buses operate following a daily scheme from 4am until midnight, then the night service starts to operate, which is reduced compared to the day service. The network is divided into 3 zones, but the trams operate only in zone 1, so you only need a ticket for more than one zone if you are planning a suburban expedition. Tickets for buses and trams can be bought from the newspaper stands.
