Questions to help you choose your trip
Should I choose Plitvice Lakes or Krka from Zadar?
Choose according to the programme you want: Plitvice focuses on a lake and waterfall landscape with walking trails, while the Krka offer combines Skradinski buk with free time in Skradin. Compare walking requirements, the full day including transport and the available departure rather than choosing only by the ticket price.
Are national-park tickets included in the tour price?
The Krka entrance ticket is included in our tour price. The Plitvice entrance ticket is also included in our tour price.
Can I swim at the Krka waterfalls?
Swimming at Skradinski buk is not allowed. Treat this as a sightseeing and walking excursion rather than a waterfall swimming trip. If swimming in the sea is your priority, compare the boat tours with swimming stops instead; they offer a different kind of day from these inland park visits.
Does the Krka trip include every attraction in the park?
Our programme focuses on Skradinski buk and Skradin. Roški slap, Visovac and Krka Monastery are separate attractions and should not be assumed to be included. Check the itinerary, meeting point and return time on the tour page before combining the excursion with another activity.
