Business class transfers to Pula

Pula sits at the very tip of the Istrian peninsula, looking out across two seas at once — the Adriatic and the historical. Here, in the middle of a living city, stands a 1st-century Roman amphitheatre that once held twenty thousand spectators. Today concerts play inside it, cafés and tourists with phones surround it outside. The Arch of the Sergii, the Temple of Augustus, Byzantine mosaics in the Church of Mary Formosa — Pula is not a museum, it simply lives among its own history.

And alongside all of this — a fully equipped seaside resort. The beaches of the Premantura peninsula, the coves of Brijuni National Park in plain sight, fresh fish in the harbour restaurants. Pula Airport receives charters from across Europe, but connections through it are rare, and getting here from neighbouring countries without changing transport is not simple.

We bring you to Pula directly — from Venice, Treviso and Ljubljana airports, from Italian cities, from the Slovenian coast, from Istrian resorts.

English-speaking driver: from Italy to southern Istria without the language barrier

The route to Pula is one of the longest in the region. From Venice — nearly three and a half hours, from Ljubljana — around two and a half, from Trieste — an hour and a half. From Milan — six. Along the way: the Slovenian or Italian border, then Croatian customs, then the long spine of Istria with its switchbacks and small towns.

Our drivers speak English. You don’t explain at the border crossing where you’re going and why. You don’t search your phone for the right word when you need a stop. You don’t work out which entrance gets you closest to your hotel in Pula — a city of narrow streets, one-way systems and tourist zones with restricted access.

The driver knows the city. You simply give the address.

The right vehicle for a long drive along Istria

Pula is not an hour away. The journey needs to be comfortable — otherwise the first day of your holiday is spent recovering from the car rather than enjoying the destination.

Business class saloons. Quiet, spacious, uncompromising seats. Climate control for any weather — July heat or a cool April morning. For those travelling light who value personal space on the road.

Minivans. Family with children, suitcases, a pushchair, beach bags, children’s toys — everything fits. Five or six people together instead of two cars with different drivers arriving at different times.

Minibuses. Tourist groups, groups of friends, corporate trips to the Adriatic. One vehicle, one route, one price. Nobody gets lost at Croatian customs.

All vehicles are recent models, with air conditioning, Wi-Fi and a clean interior. The Istrian highway is scenic — you’ll want to look out of the window, not endure the heat.

Included at no extra charge

Child seats. Croatia enforces European child transport regulations strictly. Our seat is correctly fitted and waiting in the car — there’s no need to drag your own across several borders.

Sports and activity equipment. Pula is the starting point for diving in Brijuni, windsurfing in Medulin, cycling across southern Istria. People arrive with gear. We secure bikes on an external rack and load tanks and oversized equipment at no extra charge.

Stops along the route. Rovinj on the way — one of the most beautiful towns on the Adriatic. Lim Bay with its oyster farms. The truffle villages of inland Istria. The driver doesn’t rush — the drive to Pula can be a journey in its own right, if you want it to be.

Licensed carrier: everything in order at every border

Official licence, insurance, permits for international transfers through Italy, Slovenia and Croatia. Drivers know the border crossings on every approach to Pula, the peak congestion hours in summer and how to avoid the queues that build up at Croatian customs in July and August.

If your flight is delayed — the car waits at no extra charge. If plans change — we reschedule with no penalty. No unlicensed private drivers who disappear after the trip.

Better priced than a local taxi

We take the real taxi fare for your route on the day of travel and apply a 10% discount. The price is locked in at booking and won’t change — no border queue, no stop along the way, no child seat will increase it. No meter, no luggage surcharge, no surprises when you step out of the car.

Payment in euros, cash or bank transfer.

Who this is for

Families with children. Pula is a comfortable base for a family holiday: gently shelving bays, family beaches in Medulin, Brijuni National Park with excursions designed for children. Child seat, spacious minivan and a relaxed journey — all included.

History lovers. The amphitheatre, the Temple of Augustus, the Arch of the Sergii — Pula ranks among the world’s top cities for the preservation of Roman heritage. To arrive and not spend an evening in the open-air amphitheatre would be to miss the point entirely.

Divers and water travellers. Brijuni is one of Croatia’s finest dive sites. We’ll transport your gear at no extra charge.

Food and wine travellers. Pula’s fish market in the morning, oysters at Lim Bay on the way, truffles from Motovun — Istria feeds you well.

Groups and corporate trips. One minibus instead of the chaos of several cars — that’s order, saved time and a much calmer experience for whoever organised it.

How it works

You submit a request. We send you an exact price with no hidden conditions. The day before your trip you receive the car’s plate number and the driver’s contact. At the agreed time he is at your door, helps with luggage and drives you straight to Pula — across the borders, along Istria, to the right address.

The amphitheatre is lit up after sunset. Concerts start at nine in the evening. The fish market opens at six in the morning. Pula runs on its own schedule — it’s better to arrive already fitted into it.
