Arriva Split Zadar recent customer reviews
The seating is cramped, very little legroom. We were in seats 5 and 6. Half the window was covered with the Arriva logo stripes and we couldn't see out the window. We had to pay to check our luggage which was unexpected. The bus left on time which was appreciated.
