Dubrovnik - Athens

Country forums / Eastern Europe & the Caucasus / Croatia

Hello,

Am interested on tips as to the best way to get from Dubrovnik to Athens. We have about a week to do the journey and are looking at several options, either direct from Dubrovnik to Athens or with a few stops along the way.

Any advise on bus, train or air would be appreciated.

Thanks
Belle

ATHINE - DUBROVNIK

It is very easy to go from Athens to Dubrovnik.
Take the bus from Athens to Patras (every 30 minutes), then a ferry to Bari in Italy (twice daily) and change there to a ferry to Dubrovnik in Croatia (daily in high season). That's all!
There are low cost flights from Athens to Bari too: www.myair.com

Timetables:
Patras - Bari: www.superfast.com, www.agoudimos-lines.com
Bari -Dubrovnik: www.jadrolinija.hr, www.azzurraline.com/ENG, www.dimaiolines

You may also take the daily Athens - Tirana bus. There you change the bus and go up to Shkoder, from there with a minibus to Ulcinj or Bar in Montenegro and catch there the direct bus to Dubrovnik.
