A must-see! It's such a amazing place and the tour guide, Marko, was very knowledgeable and friendly
Amazing scenery. Our guide Lucas was exceptional: well informed about the park and all things related to Zagreb including restaurants and city architecture. Pathfinders Tours is fortunate to have guides like Lucas. We highly recommend a day touring with them. Ours was a small group tour. I am confident the other members of our tour would agree with this review and give Lucas five stars.
The trip was very good and the guide was quite prepared. I just don't recommend this trip to whoever get tired hiking have a scarse sense or orientation.
Very comfortable and beautiful trip. The guide was fantastic- very good at giving information , funny and had many interesting facts about the spots we went to.
Was very good value for money, was able to learn about the local areas and the environment. Mainly for us, given how much it would cost for getting the entrance and travel, the tour comes to a similar price but give great structure and ease to the day.
Amazing experience. Views of the lakes were the best I have ever seen. Tour guide Marko was exceptional.
