Things to do in Zagreb

On February 20, 2026, I joined a small group tour from Zagreb to Plitvice Lakes National Park. The driver and guide picked us up promptly at our Sheraton hotel in the morning. Since it wasn't peak season, our small group consisted only of my son and me, along with another father and son from Thailand. The guide was very friendly and responsible, providing detailed explanations while also giving us time and space to explore the beautiful Plitvice Lakes at our own pace. It suddenly started snowing today at Plitvice Lakes ❄️, which added a unique charm 🥰. I highly recommend this Klook tour and the enthusiastic guide (please see photos). This tour offers great value for money. I decided to purchase it at the last minute the night before, as I found it wasn't much more expensive than taking the bus round trip, but it was incredibly worthwhile! It was almost like a private car tour, and it included park admission and boat tickets. I genuinely recommend it! 👍

such a fun and lovely tour! very efficient and we had alot of free time to take all the pics we want. very nice guide as well!

The "Rastoke & Plitvice Lakes National Park Day Tour" I took was truly highly recommended! Our guide was incredibly humorous and engaging throughout the trip, sharing many local stories and keeping the atmosphere lively, so the long bus ride never felt boring. You could really feel his passion for his job; he didn't just take us to the sights, but also genuinely looked after every member of the group, making for a very comfortable overall experience. The scenery at Plitvice Lakes National Park was postcard-perfect, with incredibly dreamy lake colors, and the walking paths and waterfalls along the way were truly impressive. While Rastoke is a lesser-known attraction, the watermill village has a unique charm and is great for photos. The entire itinerary was well-planned and smoothly executed, with good time management, making it a day trip that leaves you with wonderful memories. If you're traveling to Croatia, I highly recommend this tour!

decided to take the tour last minute rather than driving on our own, and it turned out to be a great decision. it saved money and time, and more importantly with our guide Bojan, we were able to understand the culture a bit more rather than just wandering the city. He even adjusted the itinerary so that there’s a better chance of nicer weather at Lake Bled, which happened. I would totally join another tour with Bojan!

The trip first took us from the meteorological garden in Zagreb old town to Ljubljana. it was a small group tour. However, the other members of the group cancelled their tour and we were left to be the only ones on the trip. We were glad that the company didn’t canceled us and we were able to go. We did the old town walk at Ljubljana with the guide, she recommended Slovenia food to try and chocolates to buy. We took the plena boat ride to the island at Lake bled. it was a beautiful and relaxing day with beautiful weather. We also had cream cake at Park Hotel as recommended by the guide. The guide said she will send me the recipe for making the cream cake and I am looking forward to it.

Zrinka was really the best guide we have ever had. She was friendly, enthusiastic and very informative. A great tour. I can't recommend enough.
