No fuss access - perfect

Ticked off the bucket list. Frank was local, funny and kept the group controlled. Not easy!! Simple, no fuss, coordinated access to the park. Highly recommend

Plitvice lake tour

Our trip was absolutely wonderful! The highlight of the entire experience was our incredible guide, Mia, who was deeply knowledgeable and supportive every step of the way. I highly recommend booking the Plitvice Lakes tour with Gray Line. Be sure to request Mia as your guide, you will absolutely love it!

Beautiful natural park

The park is very beautiful. The visit was easy, little effort to know everything. The guide Mia was friendly and helpful. Only problem is that the park is really far from Split. It took 4 hours to get to the park, 4 hours to visit and another 4 hours to return. I still recommend it.
