Private Transfer Split to Dubrovnik: 2-Hour Stop Included

Your driver knows the back roads and the local stories. You get to choose where to stop.

A private transfer from Split to Dubrovnik covers the 140-kilometer route in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle with hotel pickup and drop-off included. You choose one of five stops (Arboretum Trsteno, Ston, Rizman Winery, Makarska, or Klis Fortress), and spend 2 hours there while your English-speaking driver waits. The vehicle size adjusts to your group: sedan for up to 3 passengers, MPV for 4, or van for larger parties.

The experience

You're picked up at your hotel or accommodation in Split at the time you choose. Your driver is a qualified local who speaks English and knows the region well enough to point out what matters, not a tour guide reading from a script, but someone who can explain what you're seeing and answer questions about how people actually live here. The route to Dubrovnik takes roughly five to six hours with the stop included, so the timing works whether you're arriving mid-morning or early afternoon.

The five sightseeing options let you shape the drive around what you want. Arboretum Trsteno is a 15th-century garden with stone terraces and old cypress trees. Ston is a walled medieval town famous for salt ponds and seafood. Rizman Winery sits inland and offers tastings if you book ahead. Makarska is a coastal town with a pebble beach and a promenade. Klis Fortress overlooks the coast from a ridge and appears in Game of Thrones. You tell the operator which one when you book, and your driver takes you there and waits the full 2 hours. You're not rushed, and you're not managing a separate ticket or finding your own way back to the car.

The vehicle comes stocked with bottled water. Luggage space depends on group size: a sedan holds up to 3 suitcases plus cabin bags, a van holds up to 7. If you're traveling with children, infants can sit on a lap or in a pram, and the vehicle is wheelchair accessible. The price is fixed before you ride, and customer care is available 24/7 if anything changes.

Top questions

Can I choose which sightseeing stop I want to make on the way from Split to Dubrovnik?

Yes. You choose one stop from five options when you book: Arboretum Trsteno, Ston, Rizman Winery, Makarska, or Klis Fortress. Your driver takes you there and waits for the full 2 hours, so you set the pace.

What's included in the private transfer price?

The transfer includes hotel or accommodation pickup and drop-off in both Split and Dubrovnik, the vehicle, your English-speaking driver, bottled water on board, and all fees and taxes. Tickets to the sightseeing stop are not included: buy them on arrival or check availability online beforehand.

How long does the drive from Split to Dubrovnik take with the sightseeing stop?

The total journey is five to six hours, including the 2-hour stop. The actual driving time between Split and Dubrovnik is roughly three to four hours depending on traffic and which stop you choose.

What size vehicle will I have, and how much luggage can I bring?

Vehicle size depends on your group: a sedan fits up to 3 passengers with 3 suitcases plus cabin luggage; an MPV fits 4 passengers with 4 suitcases; a van fits 5–7 passengers with 7 suitcases. If you need more space, you can select a larger group size in the booking form to upgrade the vehicle.

Is the driver a tour guide, or just a driver?

The driver is a professional local driver, not a tour guide. He speaks English and knows the area well, so he can share insights about local life and culture and answer questions, but he won't narrate a formal tour.

What if I'm arriving late or my flight is delayed?

You choose your pickup time when you book, so you can set it for whenever you land. Customer care is available 24/7 if your arrival changes. Contact them and they'll adjust the driver's schedule.
