Croatia - moving around the country
Taxi in Croatia is also popular, although it is relatively not expensive. Average boarding fee will cost about two and a half dollars, and at least 1 dollar for every next kilometer. Please note that this excludes the luggage fee. Almost every car has a meter, so you can monitor and calculate the cost of travel. However, prices in cities at the peak of the tourist seasons can rise by two or three times the usual amount. At night (from 10 pm to 5 am), the taxi fare rises by 20%. The same rule applies to movement on holidays and weekends. Please note that hitchhiking in Croatia is not advisable, since locals very rarely express a desire to offer a lift on the road to tourists.

Traditions and mentality of Korcula Island
In general, the locals are very patriotic.
