Fantastic tour - We had a really great tour. It was well paced and we had time to do our own thing with meet up points along the way. Filip was a great guide- engaging and funny. Plitvice lakes and waterfalls are absolutely spectacular. Don’t miss out on going here! Make sure to wear warm clothes and bring lots of layers as it is quite cool especially in the shade.

Sunny day in Plitvice - We had a best day in Plitvice. Gude Filip helped us choosing easier paths and we had our own time with no rush. Autumn colors added extra beauty.

It seemed the perfect time to visit! 🌞🍁 - A superb, well organised trip from begining to end. Our guide Bojan, was brilliant, he spoke excellent English, was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about his country. In parts of the park the footpaths are quite narrow, so the group walked independently, but reconvened frequently for informative pit stops. Bojan was also happy to chat and answer any questions along the way. The route was well thought out, starting at entry point 2 to avoid crowds, yes it was still quite busy in places - even in October! We were lucky with the weather, blue skies and sunshine which reflected on and enhanced the amazing colour of the water, which then contrasted magnificently against the Autumnal colours of the surroundings forests. We were warned that it could feel cold in the park, I therefore wore a fleece and a packable down jacket which at times I was grateful for. However, my husband wore shorts and a T-shirt, and never put his jacket on! I guess warm clothing is about what you're used to. Despite the 2 hour minibus journey, the trip is 100% worthwhile. The National Park is picture perfect. Photographs may look filtered, but theyre not! Thank you to Bojan, our driver, and Zadar in and Out for a throughly enjoyable excursion.

Stunningly beautiful place - This place had been on my bucket list for some time and it was a truly magical and stunning place with the train ride and boat transfer included. A large group but it all worked out well and our guide Paula was very knowledgeable for her younger years. Communication on the day was via WhatsApp which I don't use but I didn't get lost so was alright in the end. Nice unexpected touch at the end with the free souvenir gift too.
