Rijeka to Split Destination Reviews

Bus was late and I missed my ship to Vis. Driver was staying on random stops for no reason.

Travel on a scenic route. Good timekeeping, staff spoke English, regular short breaks, excellent scenery along the dalmatian coast. The seat allocation seemed a bit haphazard. I booked in advance and was given an aisle seat next to a lady who also travelled to Split, but there would have been free window seats elsewhere on the bus. The "bus station" at Rijeka definitely doesn't deserve the name, but that's not the fault of the bus company.
