Taxis await passengers at the taxi stop out front of Riijeka Airport, for those who do not prefer buses and rental cars when traveling from the airport to the city. Although the buses to the city are not so expensive, the taxis are usually found to be affordable and the price is worked out by a taximeter system. The fact that the city center is not too far away prevents the taxi journey in Rijeka to be expensive, but it is not as affordable as buses. If you cannot find a taxi in front of the terminal after you have landed, you can ask the airport information desk to call a taxi for you. If you need to travel further afield outside the city in Rijeka you can try to make a bargain in order to reduce the taxi fare or you can complete your journey by offering the driver a deal at a fixed rate.

Passengers traveling to Rijeka city center or a nearby residential area can also benefit from the transfer vehicles of private companies. Transfer vehicle private companies have vehicles for different capacity from 1 person to 6-8 persons and can be considered very economical for passengers traveling with a group of several people. If you are traveling alone, you can travel with these vehicles to reach different places outside of Rijeka. However for those who only want to reach the city center, it may be a more convenient choice to travel by taxi instead of transfer vehicles. Before coming to Rijeka you can contact the transfer vehicle companies on the internet or by telephone to find out the fees and the type of vehicle you want to book and you find your vehicle ready at the terminal exit as soon as you arrive at the airport.
