Where are the car rental desks situated at Dubrovnik Bus Station?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Most car rental suppliers serving Dubrovnik Bus Station operate through nearby offices, meet-and-greet services, or vehicle delivery arrangements rather than on-site rental desks inside the terminal. Here\u2019s a quick overview of choices:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Service Type<\/strong><\/td>How It Works<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
Meet & Greet<\/td>A representative meets you at or near the bus station with your vehicle.<\/td><\/tr>

Is Dubrovnik Bus Station the same as Dubrovnik Port for car rental purposes?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

While Dubrovnik Bus Station and Dubrovnik Port sit in the same Gru\u017e harbour zone, they do not have identical addresses. The bus terminal and ferry\/cruise terminal are a short walk apart. Sometimes they are listed interchangeably by car rental companies; therefore, confirm the exact pickup address before arrival.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

How far is Dubrovnik Old Town from the bus station?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n

Is it worth renting a car at Dubrovnik Bus Station if I am staying inside Dubrovnik Old Town?<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
