Excellent servive from Avax and, in particular, Duje for our hire car in Omiš (31 kolovoz - 3 rujan) . Great communication throughout and really convenient that they offer the meet-and-greet option. Nice car, too. Hvala lijepa !

Very easy to get in touch with and book a car. Excellent service as we had the car delivered to the exact location we were at when we were supposed to pick it up. In our case outside the restaurant where we were sitting and eating. Perfect service, nice car, affordable.

Professional rental company, everything went smoothly. The car was exactly as ordered, with low mileage. The people who delivered and picked up the car were very friendly. Highly recommend

Easy and neat car rental. Reserved the car online and paid upon pickup. No scams here. Recommended. They are also a bit cheaper than the international car rental companies.

All went good. Meet & Greet meeting was great. Avax boys were very friendly and trustable. We had the best insurance for the car. There was no hidden cost. The car was clean and just like we wanted the car to be. I really recommended the Avax car rental company.😁👍

Very friendly and helpful staff, excellent value for money, the car was clean, and we communicated via mobile phone regarding the pick-up time; everything went smoothly. One star deducted because they forgot the return time and only set off after a phone call and inquiry, as it was apparently very busy in Split that day and the system didn't display the appointments in Omiš correctly, which meant we had to wait about an hour. Otherwise, super uncomplicated and courteous.

Omiš (Omish) is one of the most dramatically situated towns in Dalmatia, built at the very mouth of the Cetina River where the gorge meets the Adriatic Sea. For much of the medieval period, Omiš was a feared pirate stronghold — the Kačić clan controlled the Cetina canyon from their fortress above and raided Venetian and Byzantine shipping throughout the Adriatic. Today the town's adventure spirit lives on in a different form: Omiš is Croatia's undisputed capital of action and outdoor sports.
Our Avax meet-and-greet service in Omiš delivers your vehicle directly to your accommodation or a convenient central meeting point. This is ideal for guests staying at one of the numerous holiday houses and small hotels along the Omiš Riviera — a 15 km stretch of beautiful pebble beaches between Omiš and Duće, backed by the Mosor mountain range.
From Omiš, Split is just 30 km north along the D8 coastal road (or 20 minutes via the inland D70 road), while Makarska and its famous Riviera are 45 km south. The Cetina River canyon, beginning immediately behind the town, offers some of the most spectacular scenery in Croatia — whether you explore it by raft, zip-line, or simply by driving the canyon road inland to the Radmanove Mlinice mill and restaurant.
White-water rafting on the Cetina River through the dramatic canyon gorge is the most popular adventure activity in the area. Dozens of agencies offer half-day guided rafting trips departing from Omiš. Suitable for beginners from age 8.
A medieval pirate fortress perched on the rocky ridge directly above Omiš town. The short but steep climb (20 minutes) rewards you with extraordinary views over the river mouth, the town, and the Adriatic.
A 15 km string of beautiful pebble beaches between Omiš and Duće, including the beaches of Nemira, Ruskamen, and Duće — less crowded than Split's beaches and backed by dramatic mountain scenery.
A spectacular series of waterfalls where the Cetina River plunges 50 metres through a narrow canyon. Drive the scenic canyon road 22 km inland from Omiš — the road itself through the gorge is one of Croatia's most dramatic drives.
Omiš is easily reached from Split via the D8 coastal road (30 km, 35 minutes) or the faster inland D70 road via Dugopolje (20 minutes from the A1 motorway). The canyon road south of Omiš towards Zadvarje is narrow, winding, and not suitable for large vehicles or caravans. The D8 coastal road south of Omiš towards Makarska follows the cliffside and is spectacular but has no barriers in some sections — drive carefully at night. Paid parking in Omiš town centre is available near the beach.
Yes — and it's easier than you think. Cross-border permits, border crossings, driving tips, and what to see in Montenegro and Bosnia from Croatia.
