Zagreb

Croatia can be visited visa-free for up to 90 days by citizens of most European countries, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia, Israel, UAE and most countries in America. If you are unsure whether or not you need to apply for a visa, we recommend contacting the embassy or consulate in your country. Citizens of EU countries can travel without a passport, but must have a valid ID with them during their stay. Other travelers need a passport that is valid for at least 3 months after the end of their intended trip in order to enter Croatia. Note that Croatia is not yet part of the Schengen zone, but allows visitors holding Schengen visas to enter the country without additional visa requirements.

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.

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.
