Flights to Zagreb will take you to a thriving city that’s an ideal vacation destination for any season.
Peak Season
Zagreb flights fill up fast for the summer months (May – September), when hordes of visitors flock to the Croatian capital to see the sights in comfortable, sunny conditions. Many festivities take place during the summer months in Zagreb such as The Day of The City of Zagreb on 31st May. This particular event is an extremely important time for Zagreb locals as is it a celebration of their hometown. Throughout the day many free attractions and events are organised throughout the city such as tours, processions and live music.
Off-peak Season
Cheap flights to Zagreb are easier to find after influx in tourism brought on by the winter and summer holidays. Try looking for flights to Zagreb in early autumn (September – November). Days are still long and sunny, and fall weather is agreeable seeing as the impending cold brought on by winter winds won’t set in until late November.
In late October, events such as Zagrebfest will take locals and visitors minds off the cooler temperatures. The festival has been running since 1953 and is dedicated to entertaining spectators with a music style and genre known as ‘Schlager’, which is similar to artists such as Tom Jones and Barry Manilow.
Find a cheap flight to Zagreb and see one of the youngest capital cities in Europe (it was named Croatia’s capital in 1991) but the city’s history is centuries old. Travellers to Zagreb usually stay in the city long enough to catch a connecting flight to other places in Croatia, but those who have stayed there awhile can attest to the city’s charm.
What you’ll see and do in Zagreb mainly depends on the weather, but those lucky enough to land there on a sunny day will find the city alive with energy. Weekdays are aflutter with commuters heading to and from work, lunching on park benches and sipping coffee from sidewalk cafes. The evening comes to life with jazz clubs and candlelit restaurants lining the cobblestone streets. The flight to Zagreb may just be a stopping point for further travel, but the city’s small town charm will capture the hearts of visitors.
In nearby Scitarjevo you’ll find the remains of Andautonia, an ancient Roman town. The excavations of this once-prominent town are a fascinating sight and are still in progress. You can view a nearly 27,000-square-foot area of the Roman city which was an important economic, political, cultural and religious centre 400 years ago. Ruins visible include the main street, city baths, colonnades and side streets. The present-day village of Scitarjevo is worth a visit too. It represents a typical rural farm area with wooden houses.
Zagreb experiences four distinct seasons: Summers are warm and dry, winters are quite cold and snowy with an average temperature of 1 degrees Celsius, and a slew of rainstorms hit northern Croatia in the fall. The hardest time of year to find cheap flights to Zagreb is after May, when thermometers in Zagreb hit their highest point at 30 degrees Celsius.
When your flight to Zagreb lands, you can hop on a bus to the city’s centre. Buses leave every half hour and the trip lasts around 25 minutes. Once in the city, you won’t have trouble getting around between the trams and buses that run throughout the city. Buy your tickets ahead of time at a Duhan or Tisak kiosk for a cheaper rate. Don’t worry if you forget though, you can still get regular-priced tickets once you’re on board.
