Holidays from Leeds Bradford to Croatia

Our Leeds Bradford departures lead into Croatia's main coastal gateways, and the destination you choose determines how far your onward transfer will be.

• Dubrovnik: Dubrovnik is the gateway for travellers who want to start their trip on the southern coast. The airport transfer into the old town is handled by shuttle bus or taxi, and the walled town is a short ride away, which makes it an easy first stop after landing. We recommend a base near the old town if you want to walk the walls and dine in the evenings without relying on a car. Dubrovnik holidays suit guests who want a clear arrival plan. Because the old town is pedestrian only, staying just outside the walls keeps your luggage journey simpler.
• Split: Split is a practical arrival point because its airport is linked to the city centre by shuttle bus and taxi, and it works well as a base for island trips. From the city you can take ferries onward, so you can combine a city stay with a day or two on an island. Our team checks ferry timing against your transfer to ensure the first day is not rushed. Split suits travellers who want a lively working city with easy access to the sea.
• Zagreb: Zagreb is the capital and largest city, and it is served by a direct airport bus into the centre, which makes it the simplest transfer on this list. Combined with a coastal stay, Zagreb can be an inland first night before you head to the Adriatic by road or rail, the same kind of planning our Cheap Croatia Holidays deals are built around. Inland Croatia can see snow in winter, so Zagreb is also a sensible base when you want a city break outside the summer season. Confirm your onward connection with our team before departure so the inland and coastal legs line up.
• Hvar: Hvar is reached by ferry from the mainland port rather than directly from the airport, so the arrival plan has one extra step. Once on the island, the harbour town is compact and easy to explore on foot, and the waterfront is lined with bars and restaurants. Because the approach is by sea, we advise building in buffer time on your arrival day so ferry connections do not put pressure on the start of your holiday. Hvar holidays work well for couples and for guests who want sunshine and a lively harbour.
• Korcula: Korcula is reached by ferry from the southern mainland port of Orebic, which places it on the southern route and suits a trip that starts at the southern airport gateway. The walled island town is calmer than the big coastal cities, and its harbour restaurants are well suited to an evening out. Ferry timetables change with the season, so the team confirms your connection before you travel, the same careful planning our Croatia All Inclusive Holidays deals are built around. Korcula is a strong choice when you want quiet streets and a slower pace on arrival.
