Latest airport reviews
Do not take a taxi from here. Cost me ~£70, almost triple what an Uber on the way back cost me.
Small cosy airport, nothing big and not many shops. Not too far from Zadar city centre.
Warning!! Do not use the taxis at the airport, if not preebooked and paid for. The airport has allowed a taxi mafia to run it's business there and they will rip you off. They will surround you outside the airport if you try to negotiate their extremely overpriced tour to Zadar city centre. They gang up on you, calling you stupid if you tell them you know they are ripping you off. I have complained, so have others, but the Croatian tourist service and the airport allows it and won't fix the problem.
My son was ripped off £160 by the mafia taxi drivers at the airport. Shocking. Why can't the authorities stop this?
