Sports Team and Delegation Transport in Istria
Airport transfers, team convoys and equipment vehicles for tournaments, races and training camps across Istria and the Kvarner Riviera. One coordinator, the same cars and drivers from arrival to departure.
Moving Teams, Staff and Equipment
A squad arriving for a tournament or a training camp does not travel light. There are players and staff on a strict schedule, kit and equipment that has to arrive with them, and officials who expect to be met and moving within minutes of landing. We handle the whole party as one operation, with executive vans for the team, a separate vehicle for equipment, and a lead car for the coaching staff or delegation head.
We meet teams at Pula, Rijeka, Zagreb and the Italian and Slovenian airports, run multi-vehicle convoys between hotel, training ground and venue, and keep the same drivers and cars on the job for the length of the stay. That continuity matters across a multi-day event. The drivers learn the routine, the timings and the people, so nothing has to be explained twice.
For the wider group, from federation officials to media and support staff, we add vehicles to match the numbers. Arrivals are coordinated through our airport transfers so the whole delegation lands, clears and moves on a single plan.

Officials, Sponsors and Spectators
Around every fixture sits a second guest list: federation officials, sponsors and their guests, and supporters who want to reach the event without the parking and the traffic. We cover that side too, from a single executive car for a VIP to a fleet running sponsor hospitality across a race weekend.
Istria and Kvarner host a full sporting calendar, and we know the access and timing for each. The ATP tennis in Umag, the Croatia Rally that runs its stages between Rijeka, Opatija and the Istrian roads, Ironman in Poreč, and the cycling and trail races through the inland hills. Each one brings its own traffic, road closures and protocol, and we plan around them rather than getting caught in them, so your people reach the start, the stand or the finish on time.

Why Teams and Organisers Choose Bel'Istria
Sport runs on the clock, and so do we. Teams and organisers choose us because the cars are early, the convoy holds together, and the same drivers stay with the group from the first arrival to the last departure. We have moved officials at the level of the Croatian Olympic Committee, whose former president put his name to our service, and we bring that standard of punctuality and protocol to every delegation.
It helps that this is our region. Primorje-Gorski Kotar is European Region of Sport for 2026, and the events run across roads we drive every week, from Umag and Poreč to Opatija and the Rijeka stadiums. We know the closures, the back routes and the timing, so athletes, staff and guests arrive ready rather than rushed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you transport a full sports team and their equipment?
Yes. We run the whole party as one operation, with executive Mercedes vans for players and staff, a separate vehicle for kit and equipment, and a lead car for the coaching staff or delegation head. We confirm the exact convoy once we have your numbers and schedule.
Do you provide multi-vehicle convoys and airport transfers for delegations?
Yes. We meet delegations at Pula, Rijeka, Zagreb and the nearby Italian and Slovenian airports, and run multi-vehicle convoys between hotel, training ground and venue. The same drivers and cars stay with you for the length of the stay.
Can you handle VIP, official and sponsor transport at a sporting event?
Yes. Alongside team logistics we run executive cars for officials and sponsors and hospitality fleets for guests, planned around the road closures and protocol of events like the ATP tournament in Umag or the Croatia Rally.
How far in advance should we book transport for a sporting event?
For tournaments, races and training camps, book three to six months ahead, and earlier for major events when hotels and vehicles across the region fill quickly. We can confirm a full plan and convoy once dates, numbers and venues are set.
