Got the train back from Zagreb to Venice in 2000 and it was the best part of 12 hours. Train from Venice to Ljubljana takes about 6 1/2 hours. Driving is just over 2 hours, although if someone is planning on driving then flying into Trieste would be a better option. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems it's only 2 hours from Ljubliana and there will be a lot more flights going there I would have thought. And Venice will be wet, just like Scotland! I've done it before, there's a how to guide on Seat 61. It's a great route if you're not in a rush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scot scotland scottish Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Amazed that anyone can summon the enthusiasm to get booked up for this at the minute! That said no doubt in a few weeks I'll be on Skyscanner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 Edinburgh - Vienna (Jet2), then train down to Graz for a night there (2.5 hours direct train and handy if the game is in Maribor, but two direct trains per day to Ljubljana). Train down to Zagreb day after the match (or direct bus from Maribor if there) with a 10pm Croatian Airlines flight to Sarajevo..... wind my way through Bosnia to get down to Dubrovnik, then got Dubrovnik-Stansted (Jet2) and Stansted-Glasgow (Ryanair) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcluk Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 (edited) Booked up for this one now - going for Zagreb too as looks like an easy journey from there to Ljubljana or Maribor when venue is confirmed. Fly out via Heathrow on the Saturday with British Airways and Croatia Airlines. Back on the Monday again with BA via Heathrow.

doonhameronthedon Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Taken the train from Venice (Mestre) and it was brand new but slow. At least 5 hours. We're booked Aberdeen-Zagreb via Schiphol on the way out Paris on the way back. Was £200 cheaper and better times than to Ljubljana. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potted Heid Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Booked Edi-Ven on the Friday. Build bike then train from Venice Mestre to Trieste. Hotel in Trieste on Friday night then cycle up to Ljublijana on Saturday. Slow cycle back through Slovenia and Friuli/Veneto for return flight from Venice the following Friday.

Tartan Queen Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 We are going to book Go Opti as well (3 of us in Vienna Saturday morning from Edinburgh (Easyjet flight) arriving at 10.25 am if anybody else on that flight), waiting to see where game will be played first before booking this as it's pay up front and non-returnable. Saves the hassle of the train and changing at Villach as I think we will miss the direct train. Prices are reasonable for the transfers at the moment. Flying back from Zagreb via Brussels to Edinburgh on the Wednesday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
