I will be in Opatija with a group of 18 people in April 2012 with a tour which does not plan to visit Plitvice Lake. We would like to arrange for a bus tour to Plitvice Lake ourselves. I have emailed many tour operators and no one responded. Do you have any recommendations on how we can arrange this?

I will be travelling on July 4th 2012 from Split to Zagreb via Plitvice National Park (hoping to stay 2 nights in Plitvice). I am trying to find out if it is possible to get a bus from Plitvice to Zagreb on July 6th as we fly out of Zagreb that evening. I have heard that the buses can be unreliable. Is there anyway of guaranteeing 2 seats on a bus that day as we don’t want to miss our flight that evening?
Would it be better to do a day trip from Zagreb to Plitvice? If so how expensive are they and are there any you would recommend?

Look forward to hearing from you

Mary

Thank you very much. As it will be December 24th, I would like to know what would be the best place to rent a car. Is there a car rental near to the train station? We will be hosted on a hotel nearby.

Simone, park will be open also in December.

You can get to Plitvice with bus from Zagreb, travel time is about 2-2.5 hours i would guess, but considering it is winter i might be better to rent a car with winter tires, in that case you are much more flexible.

Best, Morten

We will visit Zagreb on December. We are eager to visit Plitvice lakes, but we have only the 24th. As it is Christmas time, we are not sure wether the park will be open or not. In the website, it is writen that it is open all year round. Could you please confirm this information?
Could you please also suggests a way to get there? Can we go by our own, driving a rental car, even in the winter time? Would it be better to take a bus? We tried a daily tour, but as it is Christmas, it seems that there is no tour available.
We would like to go early and return to sleep in Zagred.
We will very much appreciate your help.
Regards,
Simone
