The park is splendid. It is really worth the detour, but watch out for tourist traps. We talk when we run into each other!

The organizers take the liberty of changing the excursion at the last minute. So the planned boat is canceled, the little train is not electric at all, and they tell us you don't have to, but we stop in the evening at 4 PM at a partner restaurant to eat... We lose 1 hour on the schedule then we get stuck in traffic... The park is magnificent, grandiose, but it is better to go there another way because for the rest we really felt like basic tourists, who have to be made to pay. It's pathetic.

Awesome time in Plitvices

Excellent tour to experience the Plitvice lakes. Comfortable air condition and guides that took excellent care of our group. It's a long travel to Plitvices from Split but they stopped appropriately for bath room breaks, snacks, and a good lunch spot.

Stunning Plitvice Lakes

Excellent day trip to Plitvice Lakes. Stunning scenery and cooler walking under the shaded trees. Tin was an excellent guide. Well worth the 3.5 hour drive from Split.

One of the most beautiful places on earth

This place was magical, and the route Barry selected was perfect. We appreciated his humor, expertise, patience, and openness to questions. Eva safely navigated quite a route with many construction stops.

Must see in Split.

The waterfalls are a must see. It is amazing to see it in person and know that it is being protected. Barry and Ian were awesome. The guide was informative without being too much detail so you still get to enjoy nature. He also made very witty comments that kept the group awake and jovial despite the heat and the early meet up time. Highly recommend taking the tour from them.
