Turn your travel day from Zagreb to Split into a scenic journey, breaking up the drive with time at the Plitvice Lakes along the way.

Getting started

Meet your English-speaking driver at your selected pick-up point in Zagreb, then settle into a private, air-conditioned vehicle and begin the journey south with complimentary bottled water provided.

Driving south through Croatia's inland landscapes

After leaving Zagreb, the drive moves through Croatia’s interior, passing forests, rivers, and open countryside. The scenery changes gradually over the course of the day, offering a quieter contrast to the coastal landscapes waiting in Split and making the long drive feel less repetitive.

A self-guided stop at Plitvice

The stop at Plitvice Lakes is designed as an independent time rather than a guided visit. Wooden walkways lead through lakes and waterfalls, allowing time to walk, take photos, or pause at viewpoints before returning to the vehicle. The visit breaks up the drive naturally without turning the day into a rushed park tour.

Arrival in Split

The journey wraps up in Split once the drive and time at Plitvice Lakes are complete, bringing travel and sightseeing together in a single day. The timing usually allows for an easy transition into the evening, whether that means checking in, heading out for dinner, or taking a first walk through the city without another long transfer ahead.

Booking FAQs

Choose sturdy, supportive walking shoes, as visiting Plitvice Lakes includes walking on wooden boardwalks and uneven ground. Wear clothing suited to the weather and consider bringing an extra layer, as temperatures in the park can be cooler than in urban areas. Bring a camera or phone to photograph waterfalls, lakes, and natural scenery during the stop. Pack sun protection such as sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat during warmer periods, particularly for outdoor paths. Have cash or a payment card available for park tickets, meals, or other personal purchases, which are not included.

Avoid bringing large luggage or oversized bags, as storage space in the vehicle is limited. Do not use drones or professional filming equipment inside Plitvice Lakes National Park without official permission. Swimming in lakes or waterfalls is strictly prohibited within the park. Do not leave marked trails or feed wildlife during your visit to the national park.

This experience is not wheelchair accessible due to vehicle limitations and park pathways. Travelers should be able to enter and exit the vehicle independently and walk for moderate periods.

This is a one-way, full-day journey from Zagreb to Split with a planned stop at Plitvice Lakes National Park.

If you’re traveling between June and September, you may encounter busier conditions at Plitvice Lakes, with more people on the walkways and occasional route adjustments. The day’s route, stop duration, or arrival time in Split may shift slightly to account for seasonal traffic from June to August, weather changes, or park access restrictions.
