Dubrovnik Jardrolinija port question

We are leaving for Croatia in 19 days! We're staying in old town and I'm wondering what would be the cheapest way to get to the Jardrolinija Ferry port? Also, how do you pronounce that? I'm pretty sure it's not what I think it is!

Thank you!

Simply walk right out the Pile Gate and you'll find all the public buses. Bus 1A will take you to the Ferry Port. The bus drivers are very friendly and if you ask, they'll even let you know which stop it is. It's not hard, you'll see the boats! If you buy the tickets from the kiosk right there, or at the bus ticket window (if it's open) they are cheaper than buying them from the driver.

Have a wonderful time!

pronounced Yardroleena (not too much emphasis on the first 'r'). Thats the way we heard it. .. very easy on the 1A bus, as Images2 said. Have a great time!

It's Jadrolinija, not "Jardrolinija", derived from "Jadranska" which means Adriatic. The Croatian "j" is pronounced like an English "y".

Thanks everyone! I was wondering if I spelled that wrong. It looked more difficult than it is.
