- Plitvice Lakes National Park - Plitvice are known as a natural phenomenon because they keep changing through sedimentation of calcium carbonate and create special kinds of algae and moss, tufa or travertine which has been deposited and is still deposited to form the natural dams that separate the lakes. Since the process is ongoing today, just as it always has, new travertine barriers, curtains, stalactites, channels, and cascades are built as the existing ones keep changing. So it doesn’t matter if you have visited the lakes before, they probably look different now, so you can visit them again and never be bored. Besides the lakes, there are some interesting caves in which remains of prehistoric settlements have been found.

An enjoyable day trip to the Plitvice Lakes National Park - Beautiful park, amazing waterfalls and the clearest water I’ve ever seen…really worth a visit!
Sanja was our lovely tour guide, very knowledgable and friendly, she shared some interesting stories and facts about the history of Split and the entire Dalmatian coast, as well as the park itself.
Sanja and our driver Marco have both made our trip a very pleasant experience.

Great trip to Plitvice - Our tour of Plitvice Lakes with Sanja and the driver Marco was absolutely unforgettable. From the moment we met, it was clear we were in great hands. She is knowledgeable, passionate, and truly enthusiastic about the park’s natural beauty and history. She also share with us about Split history.
The guide provided fascinating insights about the park’s unique ecosystem, waterfalls, and the history behind the terraced lakes. She also paced the tour perfectly, making it enjoyable for everyone in the group.
What stood out most was their genuine love for the park and commitment to preserving its beauty. Thanks to their expert guidance, we left with a deeper appreciation of this UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Highly recommended for anyone wanting a memorable and well-informed visit to Plitvice!

A must if you’re in Croatia! - This tour was so fun! Plitvice Lakes was so beautiful and felt like it wasn’t real! Lovro was an excellent tour guide, he was very kind and knowledgeable and made the long bus rides much more enjoyable!

Plitvice Lakes tour - What a beautiful setting! Stunning scenery and seeing the huge waterfall at the end was simply amazing.
Sanja was a superb guide, and I would say one of the best. Backed up of course with Marco driving the coach!

Gem of Croatia - You have to see it - Great experience I recommend to everyone. The place is simply amazing, so if you around the area, don’t hesitate it’s worth it and you thank me later. The whole trip is well organised, you are informed where exactly is the meeting point (and believe me it’s not so obvious sometimes), what to take (including be prepared to have cash for the tickets), how to prepare for the trip and what clothes to wear on. But main value of the trip are the people in particular the driver Marco and guide Sanja. She not only has a great knowledge about the Split, whole area and history but knows how to share it with tourists. Together with my wife Aneta we have been in many places in Croatia, but this trip was the best so far. Robert

Scenic Views with a Knowledgeable Guide - Sanja was a great guide! She provided great historical context on the bus ride to the park and while on the trail during her periodic stops. She was also flexible with requests and always made sure everyone was accounted for on the bus. The long bus ride from Split is well worth the hike in the park. The waterfalls, rivers, and scenic outlooks cannot be described with words alone. Highly recommend and if you have Sanja as a guide then you’re in for the best time possible.
