Split Port to Makarska Town Centre transfer: the easiest way to get there
Getting from Split Port to Makarska Town Centre should be the easy part of the journey. With a private transfer it is: you tell us your flight number and your hotel, we confirm the price of the Split Port to Makarska Town Centre transfer on WhatsApp, and on the day a driver meets you at the arrivals hall and takes you straight to the door. No taxi rank, no ticket machines, no changing between buses with suitcases.
This page covers everything travellers ask about the Split Port to Makarska Town Centre route: how far it is and how long it takes, whether an airport taxi, public transport or a private transfer is the better choice, what Makarska Town Centre in Makarska is like, where to stay and eat, when to travel, where you meet your driver at Split Port, which vehicles we use and how the booking works.
Arriving at Split Port
Split Port, the ferry and cruise harbour beside the old town of Split, has ferries from Ancona in Italy and from the central Dalmatian islands; Omis is about 26 km away, around 35 minutes by car, and Makarska about 65 km, around 1 hour 15 minutes.
A little knowledge of Split Port makes the arrival calmer. Note which terminal or hall your flight uses, keep your phone charged for the WhatsApp thread, and expect the driver to be exactly where the confirmation said - by the arrivals exit with a name board, or at the airport's designated meeting point. From there it is a short walk to the car and the Split Port to Makarska Town Centre drive begins.

Taxi or private transfer from Split Port to Makarska Town Centre?
Travellers searching for "Split Port to Makarska Town Centre taxi cost" usually find a range rather than a number, because taxi fares depend on the meter, the hour and the route. Our private transfer gives you a single fixed price for the whole vehicle, agreed on WhatsApp in advance, so the cost of getting from Split Port to Makarska Town Centre is known before you land.
For one traveller with a small bag, a taxi or public transport can be a fair choice. For two or more people, a family with children, or anyone with real luggage, a private transfer is normally the cheapest way to get from Split Port to Makarska Town Centre per person - and by far the easiest. Public transport to Makarska Town Centre involves changes, tickets and stairs; a private car goes to the hotel door.
There is also the question of trust. Our drivers know the hotels of Makarska Town Centre, work on a fixed price, and never take a detour or add a "special fare" at the end. Your booking is confirmed by a real person on a WhatsApp desk that works in Arabic and English, and that same desk is reachable throughout your trip.
Public transport from Split Port to Makarska Town Centre: is there a bus, train or metro?
There is no railway on this coast; buses run along the coastal road to Split and Dubrovnik, and car ferries cross from Makarska to Sumartin on Brac. A private car is the easiest choice with luggage, for late flights, or to avoid changing buses in Split.
If you are weighing the Split Port to Makarska Town Centre options, think about the last kilometre. Trains and buses stop at stations; hotels are somewhere else. With a private transfer the driver takes the route that ends at your door in Makarska, helps with the bags, and the price agreed on WhatsApp does not change if the trains are on strike or the road is slow.
About Makarska Town Centre
Makarska is the lively heart of the Makarska Riviera, a harbour town set in a horseshoe-shaped bay beneath the grey limestone wall of Biokovo mountain. Its palm-lined promenade, the Riva, curves around the harbour past cafes and stone houses to the old town squares and a Franciscan monastery with a well-known seashell collection. A long pebble beach shaded by pines runs south-east from the centre, and a wooded peninsula with a lighthouse closes the bay to the west. Boat trips leave daily in summer for the islands of Brac and Hvar, and Biokovo Nature Park rises right behind the town.
Makarska Town Centre in Makarska is part of a city that visitors know by its neighbourhoods: Baska Voda and Brela to the north, The Riva and old town, The town beach under the pines and The wooded peninsula and lighthouse. Whichever of them you are staying in, the Split Port to Makarska Town Centre transfer is priced for the whole vehicle, door to door.
Things to do in Makarska Town Centre
The reasons most visitors come to Makarska Town Centre: Palm-lined Riva promenade, Long pebble beach under pines, Biokovo mountain backdrop, Seashell museum in the Franciscan monastery and Boat trips to Brac and Hvar. Arriving by private transfer means you start on them rested, with the luggage already at the hotel.
Where to stay in Makarska Town Centre
Where visitors stay in Makarska Town Centre: The Riva and old town, Beachfront hotels along the pine promenade, Quiet hillside apartments above the centre and Hotels toward Tucepi. Our Split Port to Makarska Town Centre transfer goes to any hotel, apartment or private address there - send the hotel name and, if you have it, a map pin on WhatsApp, and the driver goes straight to the right door.
The old town and the Riva are largely closed to cars in summer, so drop-off may be at the nearest open street; traffic on the coastal road is heavy on Saturdays in July and August.
Eating well after the Split Port to Makarska Town Centre drive
Food is part of the arrival. Around Makarska Town Centre you will find grilled fresh fish with chard and potatoes, black squid-ink risotto, soparnik, a thin chard pie and figs, almonds and local olive oil, and most of our drivers can tell you where they eat themselves. If you would rather go straight from Split Port to a table than to the hotel, mention it when you book and the driver drops you close by.
Best time to travel to Makarska Town Centre
June to September is beach season, with sea temperatures above 22 degrees and the busiest weeks in July and August; May and October are warm and quieter, while the bura wind can bring cool, clear days in winter.
None of this changes the price of your Split Port to Makarska Town Centre transfer - it is fixed for the vehicle whatever the season, the hour or the traffic - but it does change the timing, and that is what your driver plans for. Tell us the flight number and we allow for the real conditions on the day.
Meeting your driver at Split Port
Every airport is laid out differently, and Split Port is no exception: some airports have a fixed meeting point inside the terminal, some have a specific exit where drivers may wait, and at others the driver stands just beyond customs with a sign. Because of that we do not print one rule here. When we confirm your Makarska Town Centre transfer on WhatsApp, we tell you exactly where your driver will be, with the driver's name and a phone number you can message the moment you land.
Up to 60 minutes of waiting is included (90 minutes at some airports), and if you are delayed at baggage or passport control a quick WhatsApp message keeps your driver informed. On the way back, the driver collects you from the hotel at an agreed time with enough margin for your flight from Split Port.
Our vehicles for the Makarska Town Centre transfer
For this route we offer Sedan (1–3 passengers), Minivan (1–7 passengers) and Sprinter (8–13 passengers). The vans are Mercedes, Volkswagen, Ford Transit and Peugeot Traveller models, all recent, air-conditioned and cleaned between journeys, with proper luggage space rather than a crowded boot. Choose the vehicle by how many of you are travelling and how much luggage you bring; the desk will tell you if a larger vehicle would be more comfortable.
Child seats and booster seats are available on request - say the ages of the children when you book and we bring the right ones. Extra-large luggage, sports equipment and wheelchairs are all fine; just mention them so the right vehicle is sent.
The vehicle is chosen before the confirmation, not at the kerb, so there is no surprise at the door of Split Port: what we agreed on WhatsApp is what is waiting, and if your luggage looks like it needs a bigger vehicle we say so before you pay.
Who books the Makarska Town Centre transfer
Families are our most frequent guests on this route: a private car means the children are strapped into proper seats, the pushchair goes in the back, and nobody is counting change for tickets. Groups of friends and extended families take the Sprinter or a minivan so the whole party travels together to Makarska Town Centre on one fixed price. Older travellers book it for the door-to-door help with the bags, and couples for a calm start to the trip instead of a taxi queue.
If your trip continues beyond Makarska Town Centre - a day trip, a second city, a port or a return to Split Port - the same desk arranges it in the same WhatsApp conversation, with the same fixed-price approach.
How to book your Makarska Town Centre transfer
Booking is simple: fill in the form on this page or message us on WhatsApp with your flight number, the date, the number of passengers and your hotel in Makarska Town Centre. A member of our team replies within minutes to confirm the price and the meeting point. Payment is arranged on WhatsApp as well, in whichever way suits you, and your confirmation is written down so nothing is left to memory.
Changes and cancellations are handled through the same WhatsApp conversation. Because the terms depend on conditions such as how close to the pickup time the request is made, our team will explain exactly what applies to your booking when you ask - always before any payment, never as a surprise afterwards.
Good to know before you land at Split Port
Send us your flight number and accommodation address; summer Saturdays bring heavy traffic on the coast road, so allow extra time before a departing flight.
Keep your phone charged and roaming or Wi-Fi on for the WhatsApp thread; the driver's number is in your confirmation and a message on landing at Split Port is the quickest way to say you are through.
Tell us in advance about anything that affects the vehicle - child seats and ages, a wheelchair, skis, golf bags, a pushchair, extra suitcases - so the right car or van is sent to Split Port.
Makarska Town Centre to Split Port: the return transfer
The same service runs the other way. For a Makarska Town Centre to Split Port transfer we collect you from your hotel at an agreed time, with a comfortable margin for check-in and security at Split Port, and the driver helps with the luggage at both ends. Book both directions together and the desk keeps them on one confirmation.
Many guests book both directions together for a single confirmation with two times on it; if the return flight changes during the stay, one message moves the pickup to the new time.
Why travellers choose Haqqi Tours for Makarska Town Centre transfers
We run airport transfers in dozens of cities, and the Makarska Town Centre route follows the same simple promise as every other: one fixed price for the whole vehicle, agreed in writing; a driver who tracks your flight and meets you at arrivals; a vehicle matched to your group and your luggage; and a desk that answers. It is the way we would want to arrive ourselves.
Pickup options and waiting time
When you book on WhatsApp, you choose one of two pickup options for your arrival:
- Flight tracking: your driver is at arrivals the minute your flight lands and waits for up to 60 minutes. If your flight lands at 2:00 pm, the driver is there at 2:00 pm.
- Fixed time (no tracking): your driver arrives at a time you choose and waits for up to 60 minutes from that time. Send us your flight number and we check its real landing times over the past 10 days to recommend the best pickup time.
At most airports the included waiting time is 60 minutes; at some it is 90 minutes. We confirm the exact waiting time for your airport when you book with us on WhatsApp. After that, the driver cannot wait longer: the fixed price is based on one hour of airport parking and the driver's time, and with more than 30 transfers a day, every booking is scheduled back to back.
With flight tracking, normal delays are covered. If your flight is delayed by more than 5 hours, we cannot guarantee a new pickup at the last minute, because the new arrival time is uncertain and other transfers are already scheduled. Message us as soon as the delay is announced: we always do our best to rearrange, but it depends on the number of bookings that day. With a fixed-time pickup, the time slot is reserved for you and cannot be changed on the day, even if your flight is delayed or something unexpected happens.
Two hours before your flight lands, we send you your driver's name and phone number on WhatsApp. If you are still in the air, the message will be waiting for you as soon as you switch on your phone. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
