Description for private tour from Split to Plitvice Lakes

Visiting Plitvice Lakes

If you’re planning a trip to Croatia, a private tour of Plitvice Lakes should definitely be on your list of things to do. This is because there are several benefits to booking our Plitvice Lakes day trip from Split. The park was declared a National Park in 1949, making it one of the oldest parks in Europe. Our Plitvice Lakes tour starts in the morning from Split to ensure we make the most of our time and get you to the park as soon as possible. The national park has 16 lakes, which are arranged in a stepwise manner and descend into one another. The two largest lakes are Proscansko jezero and Kozjak. At the end of the tour, we’ll take an electric boat. This tour can be booked throughout the year. The roads to the Plitvice Lakes are passable from March until the first snow of November. However, winter also has its own charm when the Plitvice Lakes are covered in deep ice and snow.

The Upper Lakes (Gornja Jezera)

Meet your licensed guide at the park and begin with a delightful train ride around the Upper Lakes. Your guide is a professional with over a decade of experience. With them leading the way, we’ll start our tour by exploring the twelve interconnected lakes known as the Upper Lakes (Gornja Jezera). The color of the lakes varies depending on the water’s mineral composition and the microorganisms residing in them, resulting in the Plitvice Lakes frequently changing. We’ll continue exploring the park’s captivating landscape until we arrive at the boat that will take us to the Lower Lakes (Donja Jezera).

Lower Lakes (Donja Jezera)

The Lower Plitvice Lakes system is situated in a canyon made of porous limestone, with the highest rocks in the canyon reaching around 40 meters. The visitors’ path leading to the Veliki Slap waterfall and further upstream in the direction of the Kozjak Lake is formed by the travertine cascade between Kaluđerovac and Novakovica brod lake. The highlight of the Plitvice tour is the Great Waterfall (Veliki Slap), which is also the tallest waterfall in Croatia.

Veliki Slap, The Great Waterfall

Finally, the highest waterfall in the Plitvice National Park is Veliki Slap – the Great Waterfall. Witness the magnificence of the 78 meters situated at the very end of the National Park. The place where the river Plitvice thunders, in a single drop in the river Korana. The waterfall gets completely frozen in the winter, forming a lovely giant ice sculpture – a must-see!
