Dubrovnik airport to Cavtat transfer: what happens after landing

A Dubrovnik airport to Cavtat transfer is short enough that the terminal can take longer than the drive. If you arrive from outside the Schengen Area, passport control comes first, then baggage reclaim, the customs channel and the arrivals hall, where your driver is waiting. In peak season the passport queue is usually the slowest step.

From the plateau down to the harbour

The airport stands on the Čilipi plateau, and Cavtat lies on the coast directly below it. The road heads down from the plateau to the Adriatic highway and then on the short side road into town, with no motorway and no city traffic.

Good to know about Cavtat

The harbour front is narrow and busy in summer, so the driver stops at the closest point to your door.
Many hotels are on the Rat peninsula or the hillside above the bay; send the full address with your booking.
Cavtat is a good base for early departures, since the airport is so close.
The old town is reached by boat from Dubrovnik too, which many guests use for an evening in the city.

For the sea route into town, see the Dubrovnik to Cavtat boat transfer, and for an afternoon on the water around the bay there is the Cavtat private boat tour. Other arrival options are on the Dubrovnik airport transfers page. Quotes are itemised and sent by email or WhatsApp.

Questions about this transfer.

All FAQs

What if my flight is delayed?

We track your flight from departure, so the driver is in arrivals when you actually land, whatever the original schedule. Every airport pickup includes a free 60-minute wait after touchdown, more than enough for baggage and any queue.

What if my flight is early?

Same answer, the driver is at the airport before the plane lands. We add a 30-minute pre-landing buffer to every airport pickup.

How will I find the driver?

In arrivals, just past the customs door, holding a board with your name. You will also have the driver’s mobile number for any last-minute coordination.

How do I pay?

A deposit, paid by bank transfer or a secure payment link, confirms the booking.
