Excellent! All Thanks to Rose!

A big thumbs up and thank you to Rose our driver and guide for a perfect tour. Booked tour for small group with max of 8 and 7 travelers were in the tour. Rose was on time from pickup to drop off at our hotel and had taken us through a great path around the lake with minimal crowds. Rise took a measured walking pace that suited to everyone in the group and provided the relevant commentary both as we traveled in van and when we walked. We had other friends who couldn’t join the same tour as ours was full, but Petros answered chat from within TripAdvisor promptly and helped them register a larger group tour. Highly recommended!

Operator response

Thank you very much for taking the time to share such a detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful day at Plitvice Lakes and that Rose made the experience so enjoyable. It’s great to know you appreciated the relaxed pace, scenic route, and informative commentary throughout the tour. We’re also happy that we were able to assist your friends with their booking. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to see you again!

Plitivice is beautiful, but...

Plitvice is beautiful, but prepare for long uphill and downhill walks. Our guide Chiara was fantastic

Operator response

Super worthwhile tour!

This tour was really a good decision. The tour started on time and was led by a consistently charming, friendly young lady. The information from her was very interesting and initially provided insight into the history of the country, as well as the city of Zagreb. Everything else followed on the tour. The first stop was in Rastoke. We had enough time individually to explore the small town for photos and also to enjoy a coffee, and a short walk in the group brought us back to the bus. Only 30 minutes later we arrived at the park. We received our entrance tickets to the Plitvice Lakes and saw all the essential spots for good photos extensively. There was always enough time to follow the group, because our guide was walking ahead at a slow pace. We were all connected to her via an audio network, through which we heard her explain essential points from time to time. In perfect English. Twice we went on a ferry and traveled to another spot. On the return trip shortly before Zagreb, we received more useful information about museums and restaurants. All in all, a successful excursion! Justifiable in terms of price. Because the admission fee of 35 euros is included. Traveling to and from Zagreb on your own with a lot of stress would cost about the same. So, sit back, relax, and enjoy this tour! I greet the nice tour guide, Marc

Small group Plitvice lakes tour

Rose was an excellent driver and guide. She was so full of information about Plitvice lakes and Croatia in general. She was open to all our questions. She went out of her way to find special views and exciting natural elements. It was a truly beautiful day. Would definitely recommend the small group tour as it allowed us to move around quickly and customize it for everyone.

Amazing outdoors day exploring of nature!

If you happen to have Martina as your tour guide and Richard as your driver, know that you will have fun, learn many very interesting stories about Croatia and be back on time if you happen to have dinner plans, or as it was in our case, a wedding rehearsal dinner! Definitely will recommend to my friends that visit Croatia and Zagreb in particular!

Operator response

It’s wonderful to know that you enjoyed the stories, learned more about Croatia, and that we even managed to get you back in time for your wedding rehearsal dinner! Your recommendation truly means a lot to us. We hope you’ll carry some great Croatian memories with you and that we’ll have the pleasure of welcoming you, or your friends, back to Zagreb someday. Warm regards!

Memorable day

A visit to a unique and wonderful place would be, in itself, memorable. However, every day was memorable and much was due to the guide we had: Martina. With great knowledge about the places we passed through, but also with great general knowledge about the country and the world and a refined and timely sense of humor. We put together the images and the stories he told us at each step, always with patriotic pride. We loved and recommended it.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful and heartfelt review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such a remarkable day and that Martina made your experience even more special with her knowledge, stories, humor, and passion for our country. It means a great deal to us that you enjoyed not only the places you visited, but also the stories and moments along the way. Thank you for your kind recommendation. We truly hope to welcome you back again for another memorable experience!
