Luggage Considerations**:
If flying, be mindful of airline baggage policies to avoid extra fees. For trains and buses, pack light for easier mobility, especially in crowded stations.
Border Crossings**:
Traveling from Croatia to Italy requires a passport or valid ID. Ensure you have your documents ready for inspection at the border when driving or taking a bus/train.
