A fair comparison
Going to the Slovenian coast with light luggage and a timetable that works? Public or shared transport may be worth checking.
Going to Ljubljana, Postojna, Bled, Bohinj or a spa resort? The number of connections increases quickly.
Travelling with children, several suitcases or arriving in the evening? A direct transfer can be much easier.
During summer, traffic around Krk, Rijeka and coastal roads can significantly affect travel time.
Rijeka Airport arrivals and departures
Check your flight before travelling, especially when onward transport into Slovenia has already been arranged.
Why do we ask for a deposit for some pickups at Rijeka Airport?
Rijeka Airport is not a local pickup for Taxi Legende.
When we accept your reservation, a driver reserves several hours for the transfer and needs to travel into Croatia before your scheduled pickup.
And yes — we have had this happen before:
“Oh, sorry, we don't need the transfer anymore.”
The problem is that sometimes the driver was already on the way.
For that reason, some Rijeka Airport pickups require a partial advance payment or deposit to confirm the reservation.
It is not because we do not trust our passengers. It simply confirms that the vehicle and the driver's time are genuinely reserved for your journey.
If advance payment does not work for you, that is completely fine.
We only prefer to make this clear early, before we spend a long time discussing flight details, destination, passengers, luggage and price, only to discover at the final step that the booking cannot be confirmed. 😎
For some longer transfers, the deposit may be around 50% of the agreed price. The exact amount is confirmed together with the offer.

Flight? Booked.
Hotel in Slovenia? Booked.
Suitcases? Packed.
Transfer? Five minutes before landing...
“Hi, we're landing at Rijeka Airport. Can you pick us up?”
Maybe. But our driver is probably not sitting on Krk waiting for the phone to ring. 😎
Taxi Legende works by advance booking.
When arranged beforehand, we know your flight, destination, vehicle, price and when the driver needs to leave for Croatia.
Flight monitored.
Driver scheduled.
Price agreed.
No Krk last-minute lottery.
If you need immediate transport after landing and have no reservation, a local taxi, shared shuttle, rental car or public transport may be the better option.
