About Omis to Plitvice Lakes Day Trip

Join a full-day tour from Omis to Plitvice Lakes. Travel in a comfortable air-conditioned bus to Croatia’s oldest national park. Explore the UNESCO World Heritage site with 16 cascading lakes and crystal-clear water. Follow your expert guide along wooden paths and untouched nature. Enjoy a boat ride across Kozjak Lake and see Veliki Slap - the tallest waterfall in Croatia!

PRO TIP

There’s a timing mismatch between boat arrivals and restaurants near Kozjak. Right after a boat unloads, food spots and toilets get packed for about 15 to 20 minutes, then suddenly empty again. If you eat about 10 minutes before a boat arrives instead of after, you’ll usually avoid the queues entirely.

Highly recommended!

This was an incredible experience! So pleased that we have decided to include this trip in our holiday plans in Croatia. The park is magnificent, and words can not describe nature's beauty. We had a comfortable trip from Omis. Our guide was super knowledgeable. It was great to hear so many interesting stories about the lakes. Could not wish for a better day tour than this one. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Croatia!

Unforgettable day at Plitvice Lakes!

Absolutely stunning day at Plitvice Lakes! Guide Matej was fantastic! He knows the park very well, so he made sure we saw all the best spots without rushing. The highlight for me was definitely the Big Waterfall. Standing before it was unreal... incredible! I’m so glad we had a guide to explain the history and help us to find the best spots. We took some amazing photos. Unforgettable! Worth every Euro!

DESCRIPTION

Plitvice Lakes Tour from Omis

ARRIVING AT PLITVICE LAKES

Your day begins early with a comfortable ride through beautiful Croatian landscapes. When you arrive at Plitvice National Park, your guide will handle everything. You just relax and focus on the experience.

GUIDED EXPLORATION THROUGH NATURE

The tour starts with a walk on wooden paths through green forests and along clear lakes in the Upper Lakes. There are 16 interconnected lakes and over 90 waterfalls in the park. Your guide will help you find the best views, share fun facts and local stories, and show you hidden spots. The lakes shine in beautiful shades of blue, green, and grey, and they’re all connected by waterfalls. You will see Veliki Slap (Great Waterfall), the tallest in Croatia at 78 meters! You might even spot some wildlife like birds, fish, or deer along the way.

A SCENIC LAKE CRUISE

One of the highlights of your tour is the boat ride on Lake Kozjak, the largest lake in Plitvice. Lake Kozjak is part of the park’s natural water system. It connects to other lakes through cascading waterfalls. The lake, with its clear, turquoise water, is surrounded by forests and dramatic cliffs. The boat ride offers a panoramic view of the park. It’s a peaceful and beautiful experience.

NATURE'S EVER-CHANGING MASTERPIECE

As you walk through the park, you’ll notice that the lakes and waterfalls are constantly changing. That’s because these natural barriers, called travertine, are still growing. Sometimes, old waterfalls disappear, and new ones form; that’s all part of nature’s work here. You’ll learn many interesting things about the park. For example, the color of the water changes based on mineral content, sunlight, and microorganisms. Or how travertine helps keep the water clear. As the walk continues, your guide will share the story of the park’s rare plants and animals. You’ll learn about the brown bears, wolves, and lynxes that live here.

PRO TIP

During your boat ride across Lake Kozjak, look into the water on the sunny side of the boat. About 400 years ago, Kozjak was actually two separate lakes, divided by a travertine barrier that slowly became submerged, merging the two lakes into one. On sunny days, the sunken barrier is still visible beneath the surface.

GOOD TO KNOW BEFORE YOU GO

  • This tour involves walking on wooden paths. We recommend wearing comfortable walking shoes.
  • It is wise to check the weather before your tour and dress accordingly. Be ready for changing weather, so it's best to dress in layers. The temperature in the park is usually cooler than in the surrounding areas.
  • You will be walking through both shaded and sunny areas. Pack sunglasses and sunscreen if you visit in the summer.
  • It’s also a good idea to bring a bottle of water and snacks with you to keep your energy up.
  • Remember to pack your ID or passport with you.
  • If you want to explore the national park in detail and make the most of your time with an expert guide dedicated only to you, consider adding a Private Guided Tour of Plitvice to your visit.

Meeting Point

The tour meeting point is at the address: Poljički trg 8A, Omis. However, hotel pick-up and drop-off in selected areas of Omis and Podstrana is available on request.

PRO TIP

Many first-time visitors focus only on the waterfalls, but some of the most impressive sights are the underwater details. Stop occasionally and look straight down from the boardwalks. You’ll see fish, submerged tree trunks, and travertine formations beneath the surface that you wouldn’t notice otherwise.
