Tour with smiles…

We booked the tour from Zagreb to Plitvic National Park and from there to Split. First leg of the trip was with Sania and Mia on the second leg. During the visit to the park we benefitted from both Samoa and Mia insights. It was an amazing visit. In addition to the beauty of the water falls we learned a lot about the conservation efforts - all with great smiles…

Great tour with Mia and Sonya

The transfer trip from Zegrab to Split with stop by plitvice park was a great idea and plan. Especially our guides Mia and Sonya were friendly and easy going. Just wish we had more time in the park to relax and wonder around ourselves.
