• 5Awesome tour

  We lucked out by getting Goran to show us the lovely Plitvice Lakes, he started with the lower lakes and headed to the upper. His knowledge about the ecosystem and creation of the park was outstanding. He explained what was happening that would change the park over the years to come and pointing out the little things that really show his passion on the subject at hand. We enjoyed the whole day. It was a lot of walking around, which we expected and didn't mind at all. For those who don't enjoy a hike, just know this is maybe not for you. But your missing amazing views and one of the most amazing parks I've ever been to!

  We had a wonderful experience with our guide Nicola. He is a life long resident of the area and shared great knowledge! He also had a great sense of humor and was very patient, we never felt rushed. Would highly recommend. Thank you!

  Our guide, Nicolo was the BEST! He knew every inch and detail of the National Park. We couldn't have asked for a better experience or guide! Do not look at any others tours here - honestly - he is the BEST and you will get more than your moneys worth!

About Plitvice Lakes National Park

Plitvice Lakes National Park, in central Croatia, is a forest of sixteen turquoise lakes joined by waterfalls and crossed by wooden boardwalks.

Plitvice Lakes lie in the hilly Lika region between Zagreb and the Adriatic coast, close to the border with Bosnia and Herzegovina. Sixteen named lakes step down a limestone valley, each held back by natural barriers of travertine that build up as the water deposits minerals on moss and plants. The lakes change from green to blue to grey with the light, and the park is on the UNESCO World Heritage list and is the oldest and largest in Croatia.
