Plitvice private tour with Pelican
We loved every minute of this trip. Our driver Henry was also a licensed guide, very funny and set us up for the local walking tour with the national park guide. The 3 hour ride felt more like 20 minutes with him. The minivan was a very comfortable Mercedes. Perfect trip for a small family!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the fantastic review, Keith! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that your family loved every minute of the private tour to Plitvice Lakes! Henry will be delighted to read your kind words. He takes great pride in making that 3-hour journey feel like a quick, entertaining breeze with his humor and insights, and it's wonderful to hear he set you up perfectly for your walking tour. We're also glad you enjoyed the comfort of the Mercedes minivan—we always want our families to travel in style and absolute comfort. Thank you for choosing Pelican Tours for your family day out, and we hope to welcome you all back to Croatia again in the future! 😊🚗🌊

Awesome tour!
Great tour organized by Pelican tours. We had a local guide and even our driver Henry was a guide. He made those hours spent in the van flew by in a second. Highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the high recommendation! I’m thrilled to hear that you had such a great experience on our private Plitvice tour. Henry is a fantastic part of our team, and I’ll be sure to tell him that his stories made the drive feel so much shorter—that is exactly the kind of service we aim for! We believe the journey should be just as enjoyable as the destination. For more private experiences and our best offers, feel free to visit our official website. We hope to see you again! Best regards, Maria CEO

Beautiful Lakes - not to Miss!
This National Park is so worth seeing in all its beauty and splendor. We had a guide, but one is not essential as you can meander around yourself.

Great day with amazing guides!
Our driver Hrvoje was great, he set us up very well for our local guide to take over and she was such a knowledgable and kind person. on the way back we made a stop at a local restaurant to avoid eating in the park. I recommend this tour!

Why this scores 58
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full-Day Private Plitvice Lakes National Park Tour from Split: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Split.
How much does Full-Day Private Plitvice Lakes National Park Tour from Split cost?
+
Prices start at $790 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Split usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Full-Day Private Plitvice Lakes National Park Tour from Split take?
+
Plan for about 10 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Split is not rushed.
Is Full-Day Private Plitvice Lakes National Park Tour from Split worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 17 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Split, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full-Day Private Plitvice Lakes National Park Tour from Split?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Full-Day Private Plitvice Lakes National Park Tour from Split suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Full-Day Private Plitvice Lakes National Park Tour from Split?
+
Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Split can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Split and add a light layer if any part of the 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full-Day Private Plitvice Lakes National Park Tour from Split start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Split within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Split?
+
On Outty we rank every Split experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Split Small-Group Walking Tour with a Magister of History, Split Walking Tour with Professor of History, From Split: Krka Waterfalls, Food & Wine Tasting Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Split?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Split?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
