Very good, highly recommend. - This tour was so good and I recommend you commit a full day to do it when you visit Croatia. Our tour guide, Maja, was so knowledgeable and shared information from the time we started to the end of the tour. The hike through the park was nicely planned with a balance of rigor and relaxation. We walked, took a boat ride, walked, and took a tram, and finished with a short walk to the van.
The van was clean, the driving was safe, and stops were good. Rastoke was a great village to see and learn about.
I highly recommend this tour and I hope to do it again with my family.

An enchanting day in Plitvice National Park - An enchanting day in Plitvice National Park
During our visit to the breathtaking Plitvice National Park in Croatia, we were overwhelmed by the natural beauty of the lakes and waterfalls. The park offers several hiking trails, each with its own charm:
• Route A: A short but impressive walk of about 3 km along the lower lakes and the majestic Veliki Slap waterfall. Perfect for a quick introduction to the park.
• Route B: This route extends route A with a serene boat ride on Lake Kozjak and a ride on the panoramic train. A nice way to see a little more of the park without too much effort.
• Route C: For those who want to experience the full park, route C is the absolute must. This 8 km trip combines the highlights of routes A and B and adds the enchanting upper lakes. After the boat trip on Lake Kozjak you will walk past crystal clear lakes and impressive waterfalls such as Veliki Prštavac. The route ends with a relaxing train ride back to the starting point.
We chose route C and were deeply impressed by the diversity and beauty of the landscape. The combination of tranquil lakes, lush forests and powerful waterfalls made this hike an unforgettable experience. For anyone who wants to make the most of a visit to Plitvice, route C is without a doubt the best choice.

An adventure walking among the falls - Martina was our guide and driver to the Plitvice Falls and went above and beyond our expectations. She let us experience the falls like we were her friends and showed us everything we wanted to see and where to get the best pictures along with all the others we took. The pace was great and we came away feeling wonderful about our experience in nature.
