Visit it and feel the positive vibe of domestic culture on most popular Croatian island. Enjoy swimming and lunch on Pakleni Islands, also named Devils Islands, but the look more like heaven.

Our tour with Filip was great! He was really knowledgeable about every aspect of the tour, no question was too much and none was left unanswered. In a hour and a half we knew everything we could have wished about Split. Filip also gave us some suggestions about where to eat like a local and we had a lovely dinner afterwards.

Plitvice Lakes are a full day tour but be sure that they are the most beautiful thing in Croatia. We have 8 national parks and this is the only one protected by the UNESCO. I always like to point out that it is not a „picnic destination“ – we are not in a single spot, we are constantly walking (at least 6 km) and exploring many small and big waterfalls. After the tour we can make a stop in one of the local restaurants in the area. Contact us and let’s have a nice day together :)

Inclusions: Air-conditioned vehicle, professional and licenced guide/driver

Exclusions: Entrance ticket for Plitvice Lakes National park, optional lunch

Such a great day we had with Tiho our guide. We started with going around the lake and waterfalls in the national park. Its a very enjoyable walk with breathtaking scenery. After a long walk we take a boat ride around the lake which is very chill and lovely. One of the best national park we visited in Europe! Our guide Tiho is so great he is very informative and entertaining, we laugh the whole day. Cant recommend this enough.

My boyfriend and I had a lovely time on the sunset cruise with Damjan and Marin. Damjan and Marin were wonderful hosts, telling us all about the area and providing us with as much wine and water as we could want! The boat leaves from the northern end of Split and at the end docks in a nearby marina, where you are driven back to the original departure area. Highly recommend this activity!
