ANITA MESIC is a local tour guide in Zagreb, Croatia offering private tours and excursions

Spend a day at the breathtaking Plitvice Lake National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site, on a private day trip from Zagreb! The Croatian stunner is home to some of the country’s clearest lakes as well as scenic forest trails and crashing cascades of water. Enjoy a walk of the area with a private guide plus an electric boat ride on the lower lakes and a relaxing sightseeing tour by bus. The walk is steep and covers a distance of roughly 1.5 miles (2.4km), but the dramatic lakeside vistas make the effort worthwhile.
