Wien / Vienna to Zagreb by train

The Austrian and Croatian capitals were linked by a daily direct train, but this train now commences its journey in Graz, so a connection is now required there when travelling from Wien/Vienna

Alternative slower routings are available with connections in Villach, but the morning departure from Wien/Vienna gives an opportunity to enjoy more than 8 hours of stunning scenery year round.
So if time is on your side, it is highly recommended!

Despite the need to now make connections by day, travelling overnight isn't feasible on this route.
