Fun Day at Plitvice

Ana was an awesome host, in spite of the wet weather. The tour was very educational and enjoyable. Of course, Lake Plitvice is so beautiful and worth the trip. Would highly recommend this tour and spending time with Ana.

Great with kids and very knowledgeable

Our tour guide, Ana, was punctual, knowledgable, and conducted our tour according to our kids’ interests as well as park availability. She was able to make changes to plans quickly based on long lines keeping us entertained and still seeing everything we wanted to see. I highly recommend Ana for any tours-she does a great job and is very personable.

Plitvice Lakes is a Must See

Our driver/guide kept us well informed for our pickup and throughout the trip. He guided us along the trails at Plitvice Lakes. It's a great place for anyone who like waterfalls. Being a private tour, it gave us the ability to prioritize what we wanted to see and the schedule. The large van was very comfortable for the trip. Our guide, Flip, was excellent. I highly recommend this tour.

A breathtaking journey through nature's masterpiece!

Our private trip to Plitvice Lakes from Zagreb was an unforgettable experience. The lakes and waterfalls are truly a sight to behold - Mother Nature at her finest! Our guide DAVO was knowledgeable and nice. Be prepared for a good amount of walking - we spent about 4 hours exploring the park. While it can be tiring, the stunning views at every turn make it absolutely worth it. The wooden pathways winding through the turquoise lakes and lush forests create a magical atmosphere. This trip is perfect for nature lovers and photography enthusiasts. Just remember to wear comfortable shoes and bring water. The physical effort is rewarded tenfold by the park's ethereal beauty. Overall, it's an excellent way to experience one of Croatia's most spectacular natural wonders. Highly recommended for those looking to immerse themselves in the serene beauty of Plitvice Lakes!

This was a wonderful...

This was a wonderful private tour with Ana Marie! Plitvice is a must-do and is a beautiful water wonderland. Everything from beginning to end was excellent. Ana Marie was informative and gave us history and explanations along the way. This is a rugged tour with lots of steps and walking in order to see everything. We stopped for a late lunch of fresh trout- delicious. Thanks for a great experience!!
