Plitvice and Rastoke day trip from Zagreb - Marko was an AMAZING tour guide for this experience! He taught us so much about the area and showed us so many beautiful views along the way! He also has a great sense of humor and personality! 100/10 would recommend going on this tour to see the wonderful waterfalls and lakes and the peaceful town of Rastoke! Thank you again Marko!

Saša should be your tour guide! - You wont find a better guide than Saša. He is extremely knowledgeable about the history of Croatia and teaches it with passion. His other passions include world sports. Following him through the park is a treat. He knows all the secrets, stories, and how to navigate Plitvice successfully. On the way back to Zagreb Saša walked us through local cuisine. We're headed out now to sample some of the restaurants that were recommended.

It’s a wonderful trip,... - It’s a wonderful trip, but not a flat walk - quite a few steps & inclines. Beautiful lakes and waterfalls. Very nice being in a small group, and our guide Eva was excellent.

The park is a must see! - Our guide was more of a chaperone. He was really there to navigate us through the park. It was a 5 mile walk which would have been nice if this was mentioned in the description of the visit. The guide really did not talk much about the waterfalls. The van we were in was very small.

Plitvice National Park - The park is beautiful but if I had to do it again I would choose a private tour cause this felt rushed by our guide walking fast. I think would have been better to go down to the bottom in the am and come back around so everyone could have enjoyed the experience. Anyway it is a extraordinary place worth visiting
