Transfers to and from the Split cruise terminal, planned around your ship's schedule. Pier pickups for the day ashore, and a driver waiting when you disembark, with a buffer built in so a slow gangway never becomes a missed sailing.
Cruise ships call at the operational port on the eastern side of the harbour, past the Jadrolinija ferry gates, not on the pretty Riva itself. It is a working quay, so on a busy summer morning you can share the road with island ferries loading and a queue of taxis fighting for the same lane. Diocletian's Palace and the Riva are roughly a ten minute walk from the gangway, and both are pedestrian, so we drop and collect at the nearest vehicle point and tell you exactly where to find the car on the way back. If you are only in port for the day, we build the return around your all-aboard time and watch the coast road, because the drive back from Krka or Trogir looks fine at 9am and clogs badly by mid-afternoon.
For a couple stepping off the ship who want a quiet, comfortable car for the day ashore.
1-3 guests
The usual pick for a family or two couples doing Krka or Trogir between ship calls.
4-8 guests
For a shore excursion group that would rather stay together than split across taxis.
9-20 guestsWhole-group tenders and full-ship excursions, staged so everyone is back before gangway-up.
20-55 guests

Planeside handling at SPU for guests joining or leaving the ship by air.
planeside coordinationWe track your arrival and wait at the terminal, so a delayed berthing or a slow customs line does not leave you paying for idle time or hunting for a cab.
Every day-ashore return is planned backward from your gangway-up time, with a cushion for summer traffic on the coast road and around the centre.
End-of-cruise runs from the berth to SPU at Kastela, about 30 minutes when the coast road is clear and longer when it is not. We leave early enough.
Krka waterfalls, Trogir, Salona or the Cetina valley near Omis, sized to the hours you actually have between calls, not a fixed tour timetable.
If your plan includes Hvar, Brac or Vis, we handle the leg to the Jadrolinija catamaran and back so the ferry, not the car, is the tight bit.
For larger parties we split arrivals and departures across vehicles so nobody is standing on the quay while a coach fills.
Cruise line, ship name, port date and your all-aboard time. That last one is what we plan around.
You get the pickup point, your driver's details and a return time worked back from gangway-up, with a traffic buffer.
The driver is at the Split berth with your name. When you head back, you know exactly where the car will be waiting.
“We only had seven hours in port and were nervous about Krka. The driver planned the whole thing backward from our all-aboard time and had us at the gangway with room to spare.”
“Ship berthed late and I expected chaos. He was already there with a sign, no fuss, and knew a way around the ferry traffic to get us into town.”
“End of the cruise, early flight out of SPU. They picked a departure time that felt too early and it turned out to be exactly right for the coast road.”
Send the cruise line, ship name, port date and the hour you have to be back on board. We will come back with a pier plan and a price. No card needed to ask.
We track the arrival and adjust. The driver waits at the terminal, so a delayed berthing or a slow disembarkation line does not cost you the pickup.
That is the whole point. We plan the return backward from your gangway-up time and add a buffer for coast road traffic, which gets heavy in summer afternoons.
At the cruise terminal on the eastern working quay, past the ferry gates. You get the driver's details and the pickup point in your confirmation.
Yes. Krka, Trogir, Salona, Omis or a longer run to Mostar, sized to the hours you have between calls. We keep an eye on the clock so you do not have to.
Yes, from the berth to Split Airport at Kastela, about 30 minutes clear. We set a departure time that leaves margin for traffic near the centre.
Price depends on the route, vehicle and your dates, and we quote it when you book. Send the ship and the run you want and we will come back with a figure.
