GREAT experience with Croatia Private Tours!
I used Croatia Private Tours to book several private transfers and tours including this one. We also did the private transfer from Dubrovnik to Split via Mostar, the private boat tour from Split to several islands and a day trip from Split to Brac. All of our experiences were superb! Hrvoje from Croatia Private Tours was amazing and his communication was top notch. He always reached out a couple of days before the tour to confirm the details and give us the direct number for the driver in case we needed to contact them. The driver also usually contacted us directly the day before the transfer to reconfirm the details. All of the drivers and guides he booked for us were friendly, professional, and prompt. We never had to wait or worry if they were going to show up which allowed us to really enjoy our vacation. The cars were nice and well-maintained and our guides in Mostar and Plitvice Lakes were very knowledgeable and engaging. Our private boat tour was one of the highlights of our trip and the boat was gorgeous (we upgraded to the "luxury" boat) and the crew was very friendly. This company is very honest and reliable and I would definitely use them again.

Great ride, great driver
My wife and I took a day trip from Split to Zagreb, with a pit-stop at a national park. The vehicle was new and very comfortable. Our driver, Ivan, was also great. He was very professional, and took really good care of us. He made us feel very comfortable and safe. He was a skilled driver and a thoughtful host. I really enjoyed how knowledgeable he was about Croatia, and we learned a lot from him as we drove. In the middle of our trip we realized my wife and I made a potentially costly mistake in our travel plans, and Ivan went above and beyond to smooth it out and make sure we were all good. He took the best care of us and I highly recommend him.

Beautiful, memorable and fun experience
We very much enjoyed our trip from Split to Zagreb with a stop at Plitvice Lakes National Park. Croatia Private Tours is a highly professional company, from booking through to completion of journey. Our driver Drazen was fantastic — he is incredibly knowledgeable about the region past and present, has excellent people skills and a great sense of humour. He provides a truly “value-added” experience. We were also very happy with our local guide Michael at Plitvice Lakes. He made sure we saw all key areas of this beautiful park and provided lots of interesting information along the way. We highly recommend this experience!

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Split to Zagreb via Plitvice Lakes (3 hours stop is included): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Split.
How much does Split to Zagreb via Plitvice Lakes (3 hours stop is included) cost?
+
Prices start at $132 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 Split to Zagreb via Plitvice Lakes (3 hours stop is included) take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Split to Zagreb via Plitvice Lakes (3 hours stop is included) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 24 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Split, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Split to Zagreb via Plitvice Lakes (3 hours stop is included)?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Split to Zagreb via Plitvice Lakes (3 hours stop is included) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Split to Zagreb via Plitvice Lakes (3 hours stop is included)?
+
Around 8 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Split to Zagreb via Plitvice Lakes (3 hours stop is included) 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.
