US State Department website ( www.travel.state.gov , search for your country in the “Learn
about your destination” box, then click on “Travel and Transportation”).
Fuel: Gas is expensive—often about $6 per gallon. Diesel cars are more common in
Europe than back home, so be sure you know what type of fuel your car takes before you
fill up. Fuel pumps are color-coded for unleaded gasoline or diesel.
Tolls: Croatia and Slovenia are crisscrossed by an impressive network of expressways
( autocesta in Croatian, avtocesta in Slovene). I don't call them “freeways” because they're
not—you'll pay to use them.
In Croatia, you'll pay about 0.38 kunas per kilometer—so a 100-kilometer trip (60
miles), which lasts about an hour, costs 38 kunas ($7.60). You'll take a toll-ticket when you
enter the expressway, then submit it when you get off (but don't lose your ticket, or you'll
pay the maximum).
