Airport Transfers
Private airport transportation from Dubrovnik Airport (DBV) to the Old Town, Lapad, Babin Kuk, the Gruž port, Cavtat and the rest of Konavle.
Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.
After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.
Airport transportation in Dubrovnik takes you from Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport to hotels and apartments near the Old Town, in Lapad and Babin Kuk, to the Gruž ferry and cruise port, and to Cavtat and the villages of Konavle.
Our Dubrovnik airport transfers start in the Terminal B arrivals hall, where your driver waits just after baggage reclaim and customs with a sign showing your name. All arriving passengers come out through Terminal B, and we track your flight so the pickup follows your real landing time, even when several summer flights land close together.
Choose a vehicle sized for your party, from a sedan for two to a van for a family or group, and each Dubrovnik airport transfer goes to your hotel, apartment or villa, or to the nearest drop-off point for the car-free Old Town. For the Pelješac peninsula or Montenegro's Bay of Kotor, enter the address in the booking form: when a vehicle is available for that route, the price shows before you pay; if it does not, contact us before you fly.
Our Dubrovnik airport shuttle is a private van for your party only: it leaves as soon as you have your bags and goes straight to your address, with no stops for other passengers. There is room for suitcases and strollers, so it suits families, wedding groups and friends sharing a villa in Cavtat or Konavle.
From private sedans to group vans. One fixed price per vehicle, whatever your party size.

Dubrovnik Ruđer Bošković Airport (DBV) is near the village of Čilipi in the Konavle area, southeast of Dubrovnik and inland from Cavtat. Passengers use one combined building: Terminal B handles all arrivals, and Terminal C handles check-in, security and departure gates.
Croatia is in the Schengen Area, so flights from other Schengen countries arrive without passport control, while passengers from the UK and other non-Schengen airports pass through border checks. Baggage reclaim and the arrivals hall are in Terminal B. The hall is compact, and on busy summer afternoons expect queues at passport control.
Dubrovnik is on Central European Time (UTC+1) and switches to summer time (UTC+2) from late March to late October.
Schengen entry. Croatia is in the Schengen Area. Non-EU travelers are registered in the EU Entry/Exit System (EES), fully operational since 10 April 2026; the planned ETIAS travel authorization is not yet in operation. Check the visa rules for your nationality before you fly.
Car-free Old Town. Vehicles cannot enter Dubrovnik's pedestrian Old Town, so your driver stops at the nearest drop-off point and you walk the last stretch to the gates. Give us your full address so we choose the right side of the walls.
Euro currency. Croatia has used the euro since January 2023, so there is no separate local currency to exchange.
Seasonal flights. Most flights to Dubrovnik run between spring and autumn, and the arrivals hall is busiest in summer, so keep your phone on when you land.
