Beautiful experience - Having a guide made the experience much more enjoyable. You only had to focus on the beauty and we were directed along the path. Frequent stops for explanations about the park and the history.

This was a great trip... - This was a great trip covering all the falls and lakes about 6 hours total. Lots of walking 8 kilometres or more. Our guide Leopold awesome, very knowledgeable and also gave us great advice on things to do in the area.

Do not miss while in Croatia - Leopold was the best guide! Did we look like tourists with our big camera, hats, and backpack?? Leo picked us right out of the crowd as we entered the gate. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and fun. I really liked how he guided us through the park, yet gave us “space” to see things at our own speed. The waterfalls are amazing and the walkways through the park will blow your mind. Highly recommend spending 4-6 hours exploring this beautiful oasis. And ask for Leo - he was terrific!

The tour guide was really... - The tour guide was really accommodating. A lot of us struggled to get entry tickets because of the massive crowds, but the company sorted it out for us. The walk was at a good pace and we got to see both upper and lower lakes. The lakes themselves were stunning.

Beautifull lakes with a good guide - Plitvice Lakes National Park Is absolutely gorgeous! The tour guide was a bit on the quiet side. Unlike other tour guides, he didn't start with an introduction or get to know you. Neither did he introduce the national park or the route we were going to take. Nevertheless, he did a good job guiding us on the easiest route to the most beautiful sites in the National Park. He was also happy to take questions and take photos for us along the way. At the end of the tour he recommended an optional hiking trail that has fantastic views. I took his recommendation and was rewarded with beautiful views of the Lakes.

Not much info shared by the guide. - The guide Leo was there on time and we started off well. But after the first waterfall, there wasn't much that he told us about. It became more of a follow the leader, where we rushed to keep up with him. In hindsight, we could have done a better job by covering the park on our own at our own pace. It felt rushed and there wasn't any information shared over the bare-minimum. Even on asking, we got brief answers. I would not recommend this tour.
