Hi!

We're going to Pula and afterwards we want to go Florence. Do we have to go back to Zagreb to find a good connection (like the nighttrain to Venice) or is there any good ones starting in Pula?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi!

There is only one train from Pula in direction of Slovenia:

Pula 1815 - Divaca 2111 - Ljubljana 2241
In Ljubljana you can wait for the night train to Venezia: :arr: [u]https://rail.cc/en/ljubljana-venice-night-train/f1388[/u]
Ljubljana 0228 - Venezia SL 0716

Or you stay overnight and then go to Venezia via Nova Gorica as described here: :arr: [u]https://rail.cc/en/ljubljana-venice-train/f3663[/u]

Other option via Rijeka - Zagreb:

Pula 1427 - 1609 Lupoglav
Lupoglav 1615 - 1655 Rijeka :arr: by bus, included in InterRail
Rijeka 1710 - 2106 Zagreb
Zagreb 2350 - 0716 :arr: with the above mentioned night train

Attention, there are reports that the night train ceases running in the next few weeks; however I have no confirmation about that. If the night train is not running I would stay one day overnight in Ljubljana and then go during the day via Nova Gorica as described in the link

Thank you very much for your answer!

We are currently in Pula, leaving tomorrow for Ljubljana. According to the website of the Croatian railways the night train is operating which means we could catch it in the middle of the night in Ljubljana. Is this a reliable source?

Furthermore, we can't book seats in it from Pula since the staff at the railway here dont speak english at all (haha). Can we solve this somehow? Im thinking it should be hard to do when arriving in Ljubljana since it's in the middle of the night..

Really appreciate your help :)
