Unfortunately, the bus journey from Vienna to Zagreb was not as we had hoped. The ticket was a real bargain, but there were a few complications. The journey was generally pleasant, as you don't have to concentrate like you do when travelling by car. However, the air conditioning didn't work and it was extremely hot at times. Then the bus arrived 10 minutes late and we arrived at our destination 20 minutes late in total. Furthermore, the bus driver couldn't answer any questions and was very unfriendly. The journey took about 4 hours.

The FlixBus journey from Vienna to Zagreb was a really pleasant experience. The bus was on time, the staff were friendly and the seats were comfortable enough for the longer journey. The toilet was also clean and the view en route was beautiful. The only thing that didn't work quite as well was the wifi, but that hardly spoilt the overall relaxed journey. Everything was right in terms of value for money. Easy booking.

The journey from Vienna to Zagreb was very relaxed overall. The bus was on time, clean and well maintained. During the journey I was able to enjoy the beautiful scenery, which made the time pass quickly. The seats were comfortable so I could rest well. The driver drove safely and was friendly. The air conditioning ensured a pleasant temperature, which was especially nice in the weather outside. There was no catering on board, but that was perfectly fine for the route.

My coach journey from Vienna to Zagreb was a pleasant experience. The tickets were cheap and the online booking process went smoothly. The bus departed on time and offered enough space to sit comfortably. The seats were well-padded and the air conditioning ensured a pleasant temperature. The journey was quiet, with beautiful views of the countryside. The bus was clean and the toilet was checked regularly. The driver was friendly and gave clear information about stops. There were no snacks or drinks on board, which would have been an advantage given the length of the journey. Overall a reliable and comfortable journey!
