“Amazing tour. As a solo traveler I booked the tour for comfort and I’m very glad I did. The check points were very clear and easy to find but we had enough freedom to explore at our own pace also, which was lovely. 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!”

“Plitvice Lakes National Park is the most magical place on earth. I feel so grateful to see it. One can be healed spiritually walking on top of waterfalls. Sasha, our passionate guide, was a civil engineer. He decided to change his career to be a guide and he absolutely adores the national park. There was so much pride in his storytelling I am convinced that he loves what he does. 6 of us had an amazing time, thank you, Sasha!”
