Itinerary

  • Plitvice Lakes National Park

    Plitvice Lakes National park, world’s natural heritage that is on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 1979!

    1 hour

  • The Upper Lakes

    Meet your local guide in the park and start with a pleasant train ride around the Upper Lakes. Your licensed guide is a professional with more than 10 years of experience. Together with our guide in the lead, we start with our tour by exploring the series of twelve interconnected lakes called the Upper Lakes (Gornja Jezera). The lakes also change color depending on the mineral composition of the water and the microorganisms living in them. This process ensures that the Plitvice Lakes are continually evolving. We’ll continue making our way through the fascinating landscape of the park until we reach the boat that will transport us to the Lower Lakes (Donja Jezera).

    1 hour

  • The Lower Lakes

    The Lower Plitvice Lakes system is formed in the canyon that is constructed of permeable limestone. The highest rocks in the canyon are about 40 meters. The travertine cascade formed between Kaluđerovac and Novakovica brod lake is visitors’ path leading down from the NP Entrance 1 towards the Veliki Slap waterfall and then further on around the Lower Lakes upstream in the direction of the Kozjak Lake. The climax of the Plitvice tour is undoubtedly the Great Waterfall (Veliki Slap), which is also known as the tallest waterfall in Croatia.

The trip to the Plitvice Lakes was amazing. The driver Ivan was excellent, we felt very safe with him driving. The local guide Mikala was extremely knowledgeable about the lakes. The waterfalls are some of the best I have ever seen. Such beautiful pristine scenery. A wonderful day trip from Split.

Plitvice (Under)water Adventure

Vinko made the best of a bad situation: torrential downpour almost the entire trip. He kept our spirits up and took us to a very pleasant cafe afterward. Although he took us a new route home that turned out to be torn up for construction, he got us home safely. Thanks for an adventure, Vinko!

Best private tour yet!

Went with Pave and had a fabulous time!! Got us to the park early and with ease, let us relax in the car, gave excellent recommendations of what to do while we were visiting Split, and even took us to an incredible spot for roasted Lamb!

Split to Plitvica Lakes

Published on Aug, 2024

Andrea was our driver and was very knowledgeable about history and geography of Croatia. Her vehicle was clean and very comfortable. At Plitvice park our private guide was Lazar. It was great to be with our own guide vs a large group. He was knowledgeable and knows how to find all of the places we wanted to see. The park is a very special place with the turquoise lakes and big waterfalls. Croatia tours was very responsive with questions and in touch quickly with trip details. I highly recommend using this company for your travels in Croatia.
