Croatia, a country at the crossroads of Central and Southeast Europe, is bathed by the Adriatic Sea. It's known for its stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and historic cities.

Getting a direct coach from Northern Europe to Zagreb is not for the faint-hearted. It’s a gruelling 20 hours from Paris or just 19:45 from Aachen!
However, before rulling out coach travel all together, it’s worth remembering that while coaches may (usually) be slower than trains but they have some advantages…
they are (usually) cheaper
they go over hills, sometimes taking you through beautiful scenery (my favourite route in to Spain is by coach)
there are more roads than rails so you can reach the parts that trains can’t reach
they can be incredibly flexible - railway infrastructure is complex…
