Private - Split to Zagreb with Plitvice lakes tour

We begin our journey in the morning, at previously agreed time and pick you up at the place of your accommodation. We recommend you to start as early as possible to make the most of your time in the National Park. An English speaking driver will take care of you during the journey and make sure you do not miss any of the highlights on the way. After a two and a half hour drive you arrive at the Plitvice Lakes National Park, the world’s natural heritage. The Park is one of the greatest natural wonders in Europe. It was proclaimed a National Park in 1949 and internationally recognized and listed at the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1979. It is no wonder that Plitvice is an indispensable destination for tourists from all over the world.

Once there, you will be provided with all the important information and maps. In four hours of free time to explore the park at your own pace, our English speaking driver will be at your disposal at all times. Inside the Park you can explore sixteen beautiful lakes of crystal blue-green water and hypnotic cascades, tour seven different routes, hike four different hiking trails or just lounge in the shade. The Plitvice lakes are widely 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 has been deposited to form the natural dams that separate the lakes. Since the process is still going on today, just as before, new travertine barriers, curtains, stalactites, channels and cascades are being built and the existing ones are changing. So, it doesn’t matter if you have visited the lakes before, they probably look a bit different now, so you can visit all over again and never be bored. Besides the lakes, there are some interesting caves in which remains of prehistoric settlements have been found. After touring you can also catch a boat or a train ride. Once you have done exploring, we are waiting for you ready to take you to Zagreb. In the end, we suggest using the opportunity to taste the typical local dishes from this area in a local tavern (optional).

The arrival to Zagreb can be expected at around 7 pm.
