Itinerary
Krka is the seventh national park in Croatia known for its large number of waterfalls. It is named after the river Krka which is part of the park. The National Park is located in central Dalmatia, just a few kilometers northeast of the town of Šibenik. The River Krka has seven travertine waterfalls and its beauty is a natural karst phenomenon, which is recommended to be visited in spring and summer, as you can experience its full splendor during those periods.
A beautiful small town with amazing views. Use your free time to take a walk through the little town, climb the fortress and enjoy panoramic views, grab a cocktail or lunch in one of the many bars and restaurants, or take a swim at a beach nearby, where the Krka River meets the sea.

Krka National Park is a must see while visiting Split. Our tour guide, Lovro, was fantastic and very funny too. The ride is a little over an hour on a comfortable bus. We first stopped in Skradin for swimming and grabbed lunch at Tabono (get the burrata salad). We then took a boat ride to the waterfalls which was scenic and peaceful. The hike inside the park was about 30 minutes and not strenuous (you can do it in flip flops) with gorgeous views all throughout. At the end of the hike there are restrooms and shops to buy drinks or a snack for the ride back to Split.
We had an amazing day on the Krka Waterfalls and wine tasting tour. Our guide, Gabby, was absolutely brilliant. She was so friendly, charismatic and knowledgeable, sharing lots of interesting facts throughout the day while also giving us plenty of free time to explore at our own pace. Everything was incredibly well organised. There was no waiting around for the bus, everything ran exactly on time and the whole day felt relaxed and stress free. A big thank you as well to our driver, Ant. The coach journey was so smooth and comfortable that we could just sit back and enjoy the scenery. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Croatia. Gabby and Ant made it a fantastic experience!
Gaby and Ant were wonderful. Gaby was funny and informative, but wasn’t overbearing. Gave us a lot of time to do our own thing. If you’re looking for an excursions highly recommend.
Had a great time with Sanja at Krka and Skradin.
Booked this trip last minute, not knowing what to expect. Turned out fantastic. An unforgettable day at Krka Waterfalls! The scenery was stunning, and the boat ride to Skradin was beautiful and relaxing. We loved the beach and swimming stop, and had an amazing lunch at Konoba Dalmatino—the risotto and mussels were the best we’ve ever had. Antonia was a fantastic guide: friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience truly special. Highly recommend!
I had an amazing experience visiting Krka national park with our guide Antonia. Everything was well organised and Antonia was knowledgeable and friendly.
We had a wonderful day. Antonia is a very cheerful guide. She knew a lot about the history of Split, gave interesting information and the whole day went very smooth. We enjoyed our day!
I had a great time today, just a little excpensive but wonderful.
Antonia was super optimistic and fun! She gave the tone to the visit and was perfectly clear on all the instructions. I don’t think I would have enjoyed it that much if it wasn’t for her optimism.
Lovely visit around the national park to see waterfalls. Impressive to see how clear the water was. The swimming was very refreshing and a great way to end an exceptionally hot day! Surprised to see swan family swimming too! We were very lucky to have Antonia as our guide. She was easy to listen to, was knowledgeable and had a positive attitude! She was funny and provided some invaluable information. Thank you !
