Plitvice Lakes Tour with transfer - Loved, loved, LOVED Plitvice Lakes National Park! It was a great way to see the park and transfer from Split to Zagreb without back tracking. Our guide, Ivanka, was amazing. She truly loves what she does and loves sharing the splendor of Plitvice Lakes with us. I am so happy we did this tour. It was a lot of walking, but Ivanka broke it up well and had stories to tell about the park and made the day fun. She also made sure we knew where good pictures locations were! This same tour went back to Split, but we changed buses after the park and after lunch to the bus that started in Zagreb. Thanks Ivanka!

Amazing! - Absolutely fabulous day visiting this national park. The guide Ivanka was extremely enthusiastic about the park and shared so much knowledge about Croatia in general and the Park in particular. I chose the tour that then went on to Zagreb instead of returning to Split and it was a very good way to get between the two cities.

You must do this tour! - Wow!! This tour was so incredibly amazing! First of all, our guide Ivanka was so professional, guiding us on the comfortable bus ride and through the park, with great history, explanation, and infectious fun along the way! Her personality is 100% perfect for this job, caring for each person, in order that they have a beautiful experience. And the lakes, so amazingly filled with awesome beauty, the waterfalls, the walks through the green natural setting! The lunch was delicious at a local place, as we stopped to refresh our bodies. It was a trip that far exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it to anyone wishing to dive into the wonder it presents! (For completion of my review, I did transfer to Zagreb from our lunch stop)

Convenient way to get from split to zagreb - We were able to get from split to Zagreb in a convenient way with sightseeing along the way. It was summer so the park was very crowded, and that did take away from the beauty of the park. in hindsight I learned that longer walks are available to get deeper in the park and avoid crowds but for our timeline this was really all we could do. Regardless Ivanka was a great and knowledgeable guide so we were happy to take a trip with her

Breathtaking tour with experienced guide - Ivanka's excellent skill as a guide. She made everyone completely comfortable and confident. As a single senior traveler, I had a wonderful time and felt that Ivanka cared about all of us. I was traveling on to Zagreb alone and my phone was dying; she helped me get it charged during lunch.

Great tour guide but overall too expensive - The guided tour to Plitvice was very good and I even tipped the tour guide because she was professional, knowledgeable, and considerate. However is the package worth EUR 150 if lunch and entrance fee to the national park were not included? I have doubts. Next time I probably would book other means of transportation on my own. If you have a lot of money to splurge AND if you are too lazy to look up other tours, this is not a bad option.

Excellent guide, less than excellent booking experience - I wish I could give separate reviews for Viator, the tour operator, the tour itself, and the guide!
2 stars for Viator. I'm disappointed that I was charged the same as the reserved price even after the tour operator removed the entry fee to the park between my reservation and the charge. [The tour name on my reservation is "Split to Zagreb Group Transfer with Plitvice Lakes Tour (Included: Entry Ticket)".] I was asked to pay for the entry fee at the start of the tour, cash only, despite this not being mentioned in the updated tour description (which reads like you just buy tickets at the park). Viator is unwilling to refund me, meaning they are completely OK with an operator's bait-and-switch. If the tour amenities are reduced, its price should be reduced accordingly or the amenities of the reserved booking should be honored. Not even a courtesy *credit* was offered to me as a first-time guest.
In addition to the above, I offer feedback to the tour operator to include in the description that the group meets up with another coming from Zagreb. Those on a day tour from Split or Zagreb return to their starting point on the same bus, and those in transit change buses. This is a clever arrangement and also a bit confusing/disorienting when not explained until it's happening.
5 stars for Ivanka, who is a phenomenal guide. She visits the park and meets dozens of new people 5 days a week, and every day is fresh and exciting to her. Her enthusiasm for her job, for nature, and for life are contagious. She is an incredible spirit. And the park is beautiful, obvi.

Great Park Tour but the transfer needs to be better organised at the start - Make sure you are at the meeting point half an hour before and know that you have to pay in cash thirty five euro per person for the park entry. If you are even a few minutes late they will leave you behind. Have comfortable shoes for walking and if summer plenty of water to drink. Our Guide Ivanka is also a park ranger and this fact along with her obvious passion for nature makes the tour part of this trip exceptional. The pick up point and start of the trip is chaotic and as a consequence many people are left behind. Make sure you are there much earlier than start time to avoid what can be extremely stressful situation and exactly what holidays are not about!!
