Too large of a group. The guide Franco kept it moving thankfully and had a sense of humour. The restaurant we stopped at had fantastic food. Although it would have been nice to know we were stopping for a meal when booking. Recommend splitting the group into smaller groups to make it easier to navigate the paths.
We had an amazing day, Frane was a great tour guide, we learnt a lot from the history of Split. Recommend it🤗
Overall, a very good and well-organised tour. Mia and Sania did a great job and were very helpful throughout the day. Just a couple of small points: the time at some spots felt a little short for taking pictures and videos, so it sometimes felt a bit rushed. I understand that time was provided, but having just a little extra time at certain places would be even better. Also, this is not really the tour company’s fault, but Plitvice national park is extremely busy, even in September, with large groups everywhere, which can make it difficult to fully enjoy some areas. Overall, I would definitely recommend visiting this beautiful national park—it’s absolutely worth seeing! heaven ♥️
Mia and Sanja were kind and wonderful tour guides that made the tour enjoyable and smooth. They knew their stuff and made it easy to understand. Would highly recommend this tour.
Ivan and Berry were perfect. Berry covered entire tour very professionally. Telling us all the details and covered entire Lake. Very happy.
Beautiful park and lakes. Barry was excellent guide, good pace, patient, knowledgeable. We highly recommend.
We went to Plitvice Lakes and it was an amazing experience. Barry was our guide and he explained everything so well during our visit and while we were on the bus. He made the trip entertaining, the day flew so fast. Thanks to our driver Drago as well!
Very beautiful landscapes, a simple comfortable trip (driver Drago) and a guide (Bary) who really spends the day with us, gives us a nice itinerary with not too much waiting for the boats on site. However, you have to walk a little during the visit so you must have a minimum of energy for this visit. You can also opt out of the tour and do your own tour if you prefer. In short, a beautiful day in a beautiful place with a nice guide!
Mia and Sanja, our guides were excellent and very knowledgeable. We are very glad to have taken this tour.
Beautiful scenery, perfect tempo, and guide was very informative. Long day but it was worth it. Water and scenery was a 10 out 10.
