Join us on a private tour from Zagreb to Plitvice Lakes, and explore the No. 1 UNESCO-listed National Park, also known as the 'Heaven Garden of Europe.' Experience the beauty of cascading waterfalls and lush surroundings, only 1.5 hours outside Zagreb.

The tour starts with a morning departure at your accommodation in Zagreb. Just a 1.5 hour drive is the first stop in idyllic watermill village of Rastoke. It has similar natural phenomena occurring as Plitvice Lakes and it is often called 'The Small Plitvice Lakes.'

You will see the unique structure of well-preserved wooden watermills on the waterfalls of river Slunjcica. The village found its place at the foot of the 19th century Napoleon’s army Magazine since the area of Rastoke was actually the Eastern border of Napoleon’s Empire. It has an important ecologic and ethnographic legacy.

After the short tour and coffee in Rastoke village, we will continue to the National Park Plitvice Lakes, only a 20-minute drive away. The tour of the National Park will take approximately 3 to 4 hours and will include hiking along both upper and lower lakes, a boat ride over the big lake, and a train ride through the park area at the end. You will be able to see 16 green and blue colored lakes arranged in cascades and connected to each other by a series of beautiful waterfalls, surrounded by captivating forests and vegetation.
