Our guide Marko was excellent in explaining the vast and diverse history of Croatia in general but also the Plitvice Lakes National Park, Rastoke Village etc! We had a good size group and did the activity within the given timeframe. Be prepared to spend the entire day outside with very little time for rest or sitting. We were moving and walking the entire time aside from the bus ride which was 3 hours each way. But I would still recommend it as it’s worth it! My husband and I had a great time although our legs got tired by halfway of the trip. It’s also very crowded during summer months but people are respectful and friendly so you can rest assured enjoy your time and have plenty of opportunities for pictures.

The islands were beautiful and the guides were really nice (Domina and Nano) and we had such a nice time swimming and snorkeling in the blue lagoon. Food in Hvar is banging! The discounts at the restaurants are helpful too and the guides are really informative.

Everything was wonderful. Our guide Tony was extremely friendly and very informative. He took us to some gorgeous locations and was incredible at getting a sense of the groups wants and needs. I especially loved the sea cave and the coastline of Dugi Otok

Max was a great guide! He was knowledgeable and professional. He knew all the back roads which was entertaining and interesting. I would highly recommend this tour! The small group was perfect. Even though it was a long trip, the time went by fast!

This activity was amazing. It was a lot of fun and the views were gorgeous. My friend and I were beginners and the guides were so helpful and patient with us. I’d definitely recommend
