Mandatory stop. Worth. - A great excursion! Very well organized and guided. I highlight the kindness of Jure, the organizer, and Claudia, the guide who accompanied us, they were especially kind and helpful.
The excursion began in Split to Krka, once there, we visited the waterfalls and part of the natural park environment. Then a ferry took us to the village of Skradin, to then return to Split.
If you go to Croatia, it is very worth taking this excursion and visiting the Krka waterfalls and the village of Skradin, you will have a great time.

Private tour to Krka with a small group - We had a very well organised day trip with Jurica, who knows the history of the region well. He also happily answered all our questions on Croatia of today. We learnt a lot on a large variety of subjects. Jurica was very flexible on the schedule so that we could spend the day to our liking. Highly appreciated. We recommend this agency !

family trip to Krka - I went with my family on this trip. We knew about the krka waterfalls and river in general. Under the big waterfall there is a nice picnic area, so all that wine and cheese tasting in that atmosphere went really well. Krka isnt all that big so its more of a relax type of trip and not walking/exploring one. Luckly we had great weather, not to hot on a pretty cleary day. We went in april so we missed big crowds that can form in the busiest months. Jurica is a funny guy all around and the trip was in general really good.

Incredible - My friend and I arrange a transfer from Split Airport to Split city through MySplitTours. The driver suggested that we see the Krka Waterfalls, so we do so by booking a tour through his company.
After speaking with Jure, the tour guide at this agency, we initially simply reserved Krka Waterfalls, but we later added a wine tasting.
About this experience, only I could write: Incredible.
We had the impression that we were locals thanks to the agency's staff members' personal touch.
I appreciate everything, Jure, and I suggested this company.

Amazing tour - We reserved a day trip to Np Krka through the travel service MySplitTours, and one of our options was wine tasting, which was amazing.
Jure, the tour guide, was quite knowledgeable about the history of Split and Croatia.
I enjoyed the dessert wine the most, but everything was delicious. The wine tasting at the small winery near Krka Waterfalls was unique; they showed us how they make wine and food on the farm.

Wonderful Authentic Day Out - We could not be happier with My Split Tours on our 1st visit to Croatia for our honeymoon. Jure was great company and a wonderful guide on our trip for two. We had met him on our smooth airport transfer already. He talked about the history of Split & Croatia , Politics, Sports and what we were to see at the National Park & he answered all our questions. Jure took us to Kirka with its amazingly stunning walk & waterfall - a must see. We travelled by the river boat and Jure met us at Skradin for Coffee , then off to a fantastic Vineyard visit at an authentic small family Vineyard. Idyllic experience & very relaxing The local cheese platter was out of this world. Not to mention the Wine! We finished in Split with the BEST gelato. The private trip has so much more going for it than a big group as it was bespoke. We had comfortable & air conditioned transport all the way. Thankyou so much for helping to make our honeymoon so very special. We will recommend to everyone.
