Review of the Plitvice Lakes day trip from Split, including transport, walking, boat and train rides, cost, guides, and practical tips.

“This was an amazing trip. Highly recommend. It was a full day trip. The guide Sanja was great. She was a wealth of information and provided stories and histories and local information along the way, but not so much that we could not also just rest and enjoy the trip. She was great and taking pictures, and provided additional tips and information throughout the walk thruogh the park. The park itself should be lakes and waterfalls as it was so beautiful. The day trip itself was extremely well coordinated and went smoothly throughout the drive and time at the park.”

Review of Plitvice Lakes National Park admission, with practical advice on entrances, trails, boats, crowds, price, and planning.

“This was absolutely worth it. Give yourself time to get there as it is far from most other locations. Also bring a jacket or some layers as it was very cold and we were there in June. Crowds are unreasonable so go early. There are only bathrooms at the beginning, middle and end. About 2/3 hours apart. There is food but I would bring a picnic lunch as it can be very crowded.”

He also explained with each guest the boat route to the Krka National Park. We loved the fresh mussel and bread lunch cooked on the ship and the national park is truly stunning to walk around. It was also a scenic boat trip past towns and a fortress. We really enjoyed the day and highly recommend.”

“Plitvice Park was spectacular; however, our guide, Karlo, made our day truly phenomenal. Karlo allowed us to take the day at our pace and he customized the activities and conversation to fit our interests and desires. He's personable, flexible, kind, and sincere in his interactions. He's someone you would want to share a meal with!”

“The Guides Sanja und Mia where super nice and they took there time to explain everything to you :) in my opinion the groups are to large. it takes ages to get somewhere and you have to wait for group members quite often. if that doesen’t bother you than i recommend the trip, if you want to see more of the park you should go by yourself.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 41 reviews · 12 hours · from $76

Review of the Plitvice Lakes day trip from Omiš, with route details, costs, walking advice, guide notes, and honest value tips.

“We gave 3 stars because the transfer was very well organized and efficient — everything ran smoothly and on time. However, the tour itself was quite stressful due to the guide, Mia. From the beginning, she walked far ahead without checking if anyone was keeping up, so we had no time to take pictures or enjoy the views. She said she would wait at key points, but didn’t stop even at important crossroads where signs showed other directions. As a result, some people who were slightly behind, including us, ended up taking a longer route around the lake by following the park signage. The park was crowded, with narrow paths…”
