Easyjet, Croatian Airlines and BA fly from Gatwick to Zagreb in just over 2 hours. Drive time from airport is 75 minutes

RyanAir flies into Graz, Austria from Stansted. Graz is a UNESCO World Heritage site so if the flight arrives early enough why not spend the day there before driving on to Varazdin (2 hrs drive)

Pleae call me for a list of local car-hire companies based at Zagreb Airport. Hertz and Budget also operate from Zagreb airport

Buses to Varazdin from Zagreb main station run every hour and take 90 minutes.
