Split and Šibenik are close enough to combine during a holiday in Dalmatia, but far enough apart that it is worth planning your transportation in advance, especially during the busy summer months.
If you are spending a few days in Split before continuing your holiday in Šibenik, a private taxi transfer is one of the easiest ways to travel between the two cities.
Instead of adjusting your plans to bus schedules and arranging additional transport from the bus station to your accommodation, a taxi can pick you up at an agreed location in Split and take you directly to your hotel, apartment, marina or another address in Šibenik.
How long does it take to travel from Split to Šibenik by taxi?
The road distance between Split and Šibenik is approximately 85 kilometres, depending on your exact pickup location and the route taken.
Under normal traffic conditions, the journey usually takes approximately 1 hour 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes.
During the peak tourist season, travel times can be longer. In July and August in particular, traffic leaving Split and along the Adriatic coast can significantly affect journey times.
If you need to arrive in Šibenik at a specific time, it is always advisable to allow some additional time for possible traffic delays.
Where can a taxi pick you up in Split?
With a pre-booked transfer, the pickup location can be arranged according to your needs.
This can include:
- your hotel or apartment
- Split Bus Station
- Split Ferry Port
- a marina
- a restaurant
- another agreed location in Split.
This is particularly convenient when travelling with several pieces of luggage, as there is no need to arrange additional transport to the bus station or look for another taxi after arriving in Šibenik.
Split and Split Airport are not the same pickup location
It is important to distinguish between a transfer from the city of Split and a transfer from Split Airport.
Split Airport is located outside the city, between Trogir and Kaštela. Therefore, the distance, route and travel time to Šibenik are different from a transfer starting in central Split.
When making a reservation, make sure to specify whether you are travelling from Split city centre or Split Airport.
If you are arriving by plane, providing your flight number is also useful when arranging your airport pickup.
Why book your Split to Šibenik taxi in advance?
Split is one of Croatia’s busiest tourist destinations during the summer. Large numbers of visitors, ferries, buses and cars can make traffic particularly busy during weekends and accommodation changeover days.
A pre-booked taxi transfer means you do not have to look for an available vehicle after arriving or organise several different stages of your journey.
You know where your driver will pick you up, where you are going and can arrange the important details before travelling.
For visitors coming to Croatia for the first time, this can be much easier than navigating local transportation with luggage.
Travelling with several suitcases?
When booking your transfer, we recommend providing the number of passengers and the amount of luggage you will be travelling with.
This is particularly important if you have large suitcases, a baby stroller or other bulky luggage.
Providing this information in advance helps ensure that the transport is properly arranged and that there is enough space for everyone and their luggage.
Travel directly to your hotel or apartment in Šibenik
One of the main advantages of a private transfer is door-to-door transportation.
After leaving Split, there is no need to change vehicles or find another taxi when you arrive in Šibenik. Your journey can end directly at your hotel, apartment or other agreed destination.
This is particularly convenient after a long day of travelling or when arriving in Šibenik later in the evening.
Continuing your journey beyond Šibenik?
Šibenik is often just one stop during a holiday along the central Dalmatian coast.
If your accommodation is outside the city, transportation can also be arranged to nearby tourist destinations and marinas.
Popular destinations include Vodice, Brodarica, Primošten, Solaris/Amadria Park, D-Marin Mandalina and other locations in the Šibenik area.
Simply provide your final destination when booking so that the entire journey can be organised as one transfer.
What information should you provide when booking?
To make arranging your transfer as simple as possible, provide a few basic details when making your reservation:
Date and preferred pickup time, pickup location in Split, final destination, number of passengers, number of suitcases or large bags and a contact number.
If your journey starts at the airport, also provide your flight number.
This allows the important details of your transfer to be arranged before you travel.
Card payments and transparent pricing
Before travelling, it is useful to know how much your transfer will cost and which payment methods are available.
When booking transportation in advance with Taxi ASADI Šibenik, you can confirm the transfer price before your journey, and card payment is available.
This can be particularly convenient for international visitors who do not want to look for an ATM or exchange cash immediately after arriving.
