Breakfasts are mediocre and the coffee reliably awful - much better to have an expresso or cappuccino in a nearby cafe. The cable car journey itself is spectacular, takes 25 minutes and brings you to the top at 1000 metres where there are restaurants and snack bars as well as walking trails, with downhill ski-ing in winter. Getting around In central Zagreb, the easiest way of getting around is by tram, although in the compact city centre most key points are within easy walking distance. A tram ticket may be bought from the driver or, more economically, a book of tickets can be purchased from the ZET shop in the alleyway next to the Dubrovnik hotel. Rates are given on boards at each stand and vary according to the day, the time of day, amount of luggage etc.

Zagreb has a very efficient system of radio cabs should you need one from a particular address. A few useful phrases are given below. Nice to meet you. Drago mi je. Please I'd like to call a taxi.
