Enjoy the masterpiece created by nature and protected by UNESCO - the Plitvice Lakes National Park is one of the most popular destinations for tourists in Croatia. 16 wonderful lakes and 92 waterfalls located in the mountainous area of Croatia, far from the noise of the big cities. The full day trip designed for small groups, up to 8 people, by car or van, starts in Zagreb and crosses the incredible mountainous region of Lika. Before arriving to the national park, you can make a short break in the small village of Rastoke, a true open-air museum, with water mills and traditional houses, to experience how life used to be before all the modern technology. Inside the national park you can visit the Upper or the Lower lakes, depending on your preferences, take a ride with an electric boat through the biggest lake, Kozjak, and take a panoramic train to see the lakes from above.

Our driver/guide kept us well informed for our pickup and throughout the trip. He guided us along the trails at Plitvice Lakes. It's a great place for anyone who like waterfalls. Being a private tour, it gave us the ability to prioritize what we wanted to see and the schedule. The large van was very comfortable for the trip. Our guide, Flip, was excellent. I highly recommend this tour.

Our private trip to Plitvice Lakes from Zagreb was an unforgettable experience. The lakes and waterfalls are truly a sight to behold - Mother Nature at her finest! Our guide DAVO was knowledgeable and nice. Be prepared for a good amount of walking - we spent about 4 hours exploring the park. While it can be tiring, the stunning views at every turn make it absolutely worth it. The wooden pathways winding through the turquoise lakes and lush forests create a magical atmosphere. This trip is perfect for nature lovers and photography enthusiasts. Just remember to wear comfortable shoes and bring water. The physical effort is rewarded tenfold by the park's ethereal beauty. Overall, it's an excellent way to experience one of Croatia's most spectacular natural wonders. Highly recommended for those looking to immerse themselves in the serene beauty of Plitvice Lakes!

This was a wonderful private tour with Ana Marie! Plitvice is a must-do and is a beautiful water wonderland. Everything from beginning to end was excellent. Ana Marie was informative and gave us history and explanations along the way. This is a rugged tour with lots of steps and walking in order to see everything. We stopped for a late lunch of fresh trout- delicious. Thanks for a great experience!!
