Great time in Plitvice - Ivan was a terrific guide from beginning to end. I felt like I learned a lot about Croatian history during the drive to and from Plitvice. A worthwhile adventure and one I would definitely do again.

A full day of travel experience from Split - Leaving from Split means a 2 1/2 to 3 hr hour ride to and from Split. It is important to leave Split very early to get in front of the crowds since you will be walking on boardwalks and moving by ferries to go between the lower and upper falls. The lines can be long. Plan on lots of steps and walking. We walked 20,000 steps. A better plan would to fly into the capitol of Croatia and drive down to Split, stopping at the Lakes on the way.

Wonderful experience - What a beautiful area to explore. Good exercise too! Andrea was a wonderful driver and guide. We had just the right amount of time with him and then the last portion of the hike we were on our own and met him to drive back Great conversations in the car about Croatia customs and life.

Plitvice Lakes National Park day tour - We had the great pleasure of being guided by Andrej on a Plitvice Lakes National Park day tour. We had an amazing day in this oasis. Andrej was very knowledgeable, interesting and a real treat to share the day with. My mum recently had a hip replacement, and Andrej helped manage the day so that she would not be uncomfortable. It ended up raining in the afternoon, but this didn’t dampen the experience. Thanks to Andrej for making it a great day out!

Plitvice Lakes Private tour - Amazing experience at the Plitvice Lakes, incredible views, the color of the water, peaceful place. My private tour with Tiho was very knowledgeable, he was very kind, respectful and fun. I will recommend to do a private tour because there was crowded so if you like conform and wants to save time and know more the park it’s a better option. Thanks

Driver/Guide struggled with both. - Driver/guide was a very poor driver. He seemed tired and veered out of lane many times. We felt uncomfortable the whole drive. Once we got to park, he struggled to come up with a plan that matched our schedule and fitness level. The park was amazing though.
