Long waiting time at the border controlThe journey to Zagreb was very pleasant. It was a direct connection with no changes, although there were a few breaks (about every 2 hours). The border control with Croatia took some time, but this was factored into the planning so that the bus arrived on time despite the long stop at the border. The journey was organised by Flixbus (bus N1900a in the direction of Ljubljana). The journey was very reasonably priced. Seats could be booked in advance; every guest was assigned a seat. There was fast wifi. The bus was clean and modern. The journey time was 5 hours and took place from 11 pm (Belgrade) to 5 am (Zagreb). There was a time difference of one hour.
