Wonderful way to travel from Zagreb to Split

5.00This is a wonderful way to travel from Zagreb to Split. Many people take the bus from Zagreb to Split and Split to Zagreb, not realizing that they can do so with a 4 hour stop in the park.
Best experiences and great guides

5.00We were blessed with great weather and saw some amazing scenery that we had never seen before. It was a truly unforgettable day. I was worried about traveling alone, but everyone was very kind to me. Ella and Ivanka, the guides, and Miki, the driver. I was very happy that they wanted to entertain us. Ivanka, you have been so brave to hear how I feel about my anxiety and to give me powerful advice and tell me about my life experiences. Thank you so much.

4.00Good for fit people a little hard for seniors as the hiking/walking in the rain was a bit hazardous with the slippery woods. The national park was absolutely beautiful. Our guide was just ok.
Too large a group for one guide to manage. Could be better planned.

2.00This tour was not organized at all. There were two tour guides managing a large group. They said one of their guides didn’t show up. They did not provide much information about the park and the wait times were not well coordinated. Not enough time for lunch. Not enough time for the last big waterfall to get a good view.

5.00We had a very good trip from Zagreb to split ! Our guide was Daniela who tried her best to keep the group engaged and active . The trip till Plitvik lakes went very well. The lakes are beautiful and an absolute must do ! After the lakes we were transferred to another vehicle which was ok . Took us time to reach Split due to traffic . Overall a great day , long , lots of walking but whole lot of fun
Sanja and Mia are amazing tour guides !!!!!

5.00Mia and Sanja are absolutely amazing guides ! The whole experience was absolutely perfect ! We met Sonja in Zagreb and she let us know the itinerary for the day. On the bus to the lakes, she gave us great information on the area. We had a great stop for snacks/bathroom break and continued to the lakes. Once we got there, Mia's group that had come from Split met us. We had both tour guides to take us on an amazing walk through the numerous waterfalls. All along the way, they pointed us the best places for photos and gave us great information about the area ! They even taught us a few words in the language of Croatia ! After the great tour of the lakes, we went back on the transfer to Split. Mia was our tour guide back to Split and patiently gave us individual attention for questions on where to eat, what to see, etc ! They are two of the best tour guides we have ever had !!
Amazing

5.00Barisa is an excellent guide. His command of the English language is exemplary. He is a passionate environmentalist and highly intelligent especially with Croatian history and the environment. He also has excellent people skills. He was incredibly mindful of all participants. I recommend you everyone to experience the National park with Barisa. Many thanks Barisa. Also, our bus driver was wonderful too.
Best Trip Between Zagreb and Split

5.00This trip takes people from Zagreb to Split or Split to Zagreb (or one can return from whence they came) with a full tour of the famous Plitvice lakes and waterfalls (majestically beautiful). The tour has two brilliant guides who informed us about the various falls, best spots for photos, told us about the different water colors and rock formations, gave us reasonable breaks, and made the day one I will always treasure. I highly recommend this tour!!! Thank you to the amazing guides Mia and Sanja!!!
Very good
