Great day with amazing guides! - Our driver Hrvoje was great, he set us up very well for our local guide to take over and she was such a knowledgable and kind person. on the way back we made a stop at a local restaurant to avoid eating in the park. I recommend this tour!

Amazing day trip - Bit of a long drive from split but 100% worth it. Our drivers were lovely and the tour guide was excellent. All very friendly and helpful. Was a very hot day and long walk but the views were stunning. I would definitely do this trip again and recommend it

Pelican Tours Split was a good tourist guide - The expedition to Krka National Park and Skradin city was a real delight. The sublime landscapes and majestic waterfalls left us speechless. An unforgettable experience!

Amazing national park, a must see! - We booked a private Plitvice National Park tour from Split from Pelican Tour. The booking process was easy, you pick the tour, the date, and you pay right there on the website with credit card. There can be a maximum of 8 people in your group for private tour in one car, and the price is very reasonable and even comparable to if you joined group tours, depending on how many people you have.
The driver, Bojan, contacted us the day before to confirm pickup location and time. On the day of the tour he showed up on time and he was friendly and professional. It took less than 4 hours to arrive Plitvice and the car ride was clean and comfortable. Make sure you break for restroom before getting out of the freeway, when there are still resting areas. It was difficult finding one near the park, and there’s long lines for restrooms at the park.
We met our guide at park entrance, where we also purchased tickets. To our pleasant surprise we could pay by credit card for the tickets; the website said cash only. Our tour guide Nikolai (sorry if I misspelled) accompanied us for the tour and he was very friendly and knowledgeable, also great at taking pictures. He discussed with us on the route we will be taking and if we are interested to do certain trails. It worked out well and of course the park was magnificent especially with fall colors. The park is a must see if you are in Croatia. We also had a little time for lunch right inside the park before continuing on. The walk is not difficult and at our own pace. It was relaxing and we didn’t feel rushed.
Make sure to let your guide know if there are certain place you want to see early on so he can plan it. There was this signature view you see on many postcards we wanted to see but it wasn’t on the route we were on, and it was too late when we realized it. The route he took us on was still amazing and he felt it was a better way to see the park. After four hours we were taken back to our driver; there were quite a bit of stairs going up in this last walk to exit. We arrived our hotel round 6pm. The park was so beautiful and ideally we would want to spend more time, but we feel four hours walk is just the right amount of time for people like us who are not especially sporty. Overall a great company and great tour if you have to visit Plitvice from Split.

Beautiful piece of Nature - The tour itself was very well run with a great guide who was both personable and informative. The long day was worth the trip, the lakes and National park are truly beautiful. Many many tourists though and a bit disappointing that so may people are filling the paths with you as you walk around as this takes away some of the calm peaceful feeling this place could have.

Beautiful lakes - Comfortable trip in a private minivan for 2 families.
Met by a guide who was informative and funny- leisurely pace, did not feel like we were bombarded with information. We had 6 children with us, mostly teenagers- not bored!

Nice park but crowdy - We have taken the round trip option from Split on the same day. Driver was good but the van could have been more confortable for a more than 6 hours drive. The guide in the park was good. The Plitvice park is a nice park but too crowdy during summer with long queues just for a photo or food. Best is to come very early or late in the afternoon.

OK day - Overall a good day, though a few little hiccups. I know the company has no control over the weather, but the rain did colour our day a bit unfortunately. Krka is much closer, and both my friend and I thought it might even have been better! The group was split into two mini vans, with the guide in the other one. Some of the others said he explained some things on the way which we missed. We stopped at a servo for over half an hour on the way. I believe the guide was also quite new, and it showed. He didn't really have much to tell us. His guiding was more to keep us together and see the best bits in the limited time. But with the crowds and the group being quite large, we moved so slowly that I feel we could have seen a lot more of allowed to explore freely. In summary, good to have shuttle to get there, but guiding wasn't really necessary. And be aware it's 3-4hrs in the bus each way from split. Perhaps check out krka instead /as well
