I just finished my phenomenal experience experience in Plitvice Lakes National Park and Rastoke with Karlo from Bespoke Croatia. It was a cold day in January with snow on the ground, however, this was not a problem at all. In fact, the winter weather added to the natural beauty of these amazing locations. During the car ride, Karlo told me about the history of Croatia, from the very beginning up until the present. This was a very interesting conversation and I learned so much. Our first stop was in the small town of Rastoke which was very enjoyable and worth seeing, given the unique waterfalls and charming architecture. Next, we arrived at Plitvice Lakes which was absolutely stunning in the winter season. This is one of those places that is worth visiting in all seasons. Karlo and I spent several hours hiking around the lakes. There were so many breathtaking vistas. We also took a boat across the lake which was a great experience because it allowed us to experience the lakes from a different vantage point. The scenery was breathtaking. Karlo came prepared with a delicious picnic lunch that featured local food that he and his family had prepared for us. This was very special and I am so thankful for this. I am so glad that I took this tour with Karlo. It was such a memorable experience, and it was a very important part of my weeklong trip to Zagreb. I highly recommend this tour - you will not be disappointed!
