Our guide Leopold - Leo was very nice, taking care of the group, adjusting a pace and always with useful advice on our security (where to stop for taking photos, where not to do it while walking as it could be risky). His stories about Plitvice park and some particular place there were intersting and always wraped in a good humor. Pleasurable tour that I highly recomend :) .”

We had meeting spots and locations where he gave us information. But in between we could go at our own pace and explore as we wanted to. Really good balance!”

My guide (Nike) set up a group chat for ease of communication which was a great idea for the group and showed care for customers. She was very approachable and full of knowledge about Croatia and especially the nationals Holliday to commemorate the war and attack on Croatia in the 1990’s. Overall a great tour , highly recommend of your in Croatia!”
