  • Take a few moments to get used to your rental. Adjust your seat and mirrors, find the lights and blinkers, and get used to how it handles before you set off. And remember to stay on the right side of the road in Croatia.

  • Keep within the local speed limits. Most of the time that's around 45kph in built-up areas and 125kph or so on highways, unless signed otherwise.

  • Around 8am is one of the busiest times for traffic in this destination. Try to avoid peak travel times generally for a more relaxed drive.

  • The euro (EUR) is the currency you'll be using for everyday expenses and outings. Pay by card when you can, and keep some cash handy when electronic payments aren't accepted.

  • Croatian is the language spoken in most parts of the country.
