A bit underwhelming
Well organised trip but the description is a bit misleading. The extra cost for the entry ticket includes the boat and “train” ride. The guided walk was very rushed with no information shared about the park itself. Having a guide seemed a bit pointless.

Stunning national park
Lovely day although a little long and limited options for food. The national park is stunning and the truck and boat rides meant we were able to cover a lot of ground.

Great overall experience,...
Great overall experience, just a few tips that might be helpful for a few. First, comfortable, clean bus, nice quick stop on the way for refreshments, very friendly and knowledgeable guide. Full, fun day worth every penny and minute. Just note, the office of the touring company, one of two places you can use as the meeting destination, is conveniently located in Old Town, but you'll want GPS to find it. Once there, an employee will walk you and anyone else who booked the tour 15-20 minutes to where the bus is actually parked. Be prepared to wait a little longer for others to arrive to the bus before heading out. On our tour, we were told upon arrival by a guide that there would be options for two different sets of hikes, but then a new guide arrived and said we would all do the same hikes. This was fine by me, but if you don't want to hike as much, just keep this in mind. Lastly, be prepared to possibly wait in line to board the boat and again to board the tram. This is not the tour company's issue...it's just how it might be based on how many people are also visiting that day. Once you return, just be prepared to figure out your own way back from the bus. Again, it's about another 15-20 minute walk back to where the Old Town meeting spot.

Hiking the park
The guide had a lot of information about the park and kept us moving so we could see everything. We really enjoyed the experience!

A great experience
The Lakes Tour guide and the vehicle driver were very good.
What I did not like is that Zadar Adventure does not drop you off at the starting meeting point at the end of the excursion; they drop you off at another place further from the center.

Start at the end
Lots of small waterfalls. The water colour is spectacular. Going to the largest waterfall at the end would be sufficient

Lakes amazing, tour guide poor
Plitvice lakes are amazing. The guided tour was most disappointing and was done via WhatsApp with instructions where to go. There was no information on the site, the history or anything.
Amazing scenery but tour guide disappointing

A good Day at Plitvice National Park
We had a wonderful experience. The guided tour was moderately paced and everyone got enough time to take breathtaking photos. The pick up and drop-off was very punctual. Overall it was a really good trip.

Okay
Felt like the tour was rushed, guide didnt really guide, was forced to do certain routes to cut the day short. Compulsory forced stops which didnt need to happen, just sat waiting rather than exploring.

Thanks for your review!

Fantastic park, absolutely worth visiting, do not be afraid of not knowing the language..
Beautiful experience. Even though we were the only Italians and the guide in English, Mónica made us feel at ease by using the group WhatsApp and gestures. Thank you, Mónica
