Pass By: Dubrovnik, Dubrovnik, Dubrovnik-Neretva County, Dalmatia

Leave your Dubrovnik hotel by comfortable vehicle and relax on the 5-hour journey to Plitvice Lakes National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Stop At: Plitvice Lakes National Park, Plitvice Lakes National Park, Central Croatia

The largest and oldest national park in Croatia, Plitvice is an oasis of vibrant lakes, gushing waterfalls and lush forest. As you travel, talk with your driver about what you’d like to see and do — the beauty of a private tour is that the itinerary can be entirely tailored to suit your needs and interests.

On arrival, set off to explore the dense woodland that surrounds the lakes. Follow your guide (if the option is selected) along the trails at a steady pace and admire the wilderness around you. Spy wildflowers bordering the paths and gaze up at the towering beech, spruce and fir trees. Then, for the best vantage points, cross over the pretty wooden bridges for unparalleled views of the lakes.

Stop off at one of the park’s restaurants or cafes to refuel with some lunch (own expense), and then perhaps take an electric boat ride on one of the lower lakes (own expense). While the lakes may look a vivid turquoise from a distance, you’ll notice how crystalline they are from your boat.

Afterward, continue exploring the forest on foot with your guide. Alternatively, hop aboard the bus or electric train (own expense) to cover more ground and rest your feet. From the comfort of your seat, gaze out of the window and take in your final glimpses of the breathtaking scenery.

When the time comes, return to your comfortable vehicle and relax on the journey back to Dubrovnik, where your private tour concludes with a hotel drop-off.

If you don't have the time to spend a few nights up by Plitvice Lakes, and have no other option - that this is a good way to pack in this day trip. It's a long trip about 5 hours each way, and you'll spend about 4 hours hiking through the lakes totally worth it!. Our driver was nice, and efficient - and a bit speedy even got a speeding ticket on the way there. It's basically a driving service, he's not a tour guide, did not come into the park with us, nor had been there before!

The private transfer was a pleasant surprise as we weren't expecting such a personal service. We got on the car and as we were approaching the Park, it started raining really heavily. We asked the driver for advice and all he could say is that he doesn't recommend continue going, it was just a little disappointing as he also mentioned that he had a different car so all the usual equipment like umbrellas were not going to be provided like they normally would. The day went on fine as we explored the Park on our own, but I think this tour is just a chauffeur service instead...
