Testimonials & reviews

Tripadvisor review Oct 2018.

We just got back from the trip to the Plitvice Lakes, a tour offered by Permansio Tours. It includes a stop at Rastoke, full lunch and tickets to the park, so you can skip standing in line to buy, you get the pre-purchased tickets and go in. There are a few company’s that offer the same trip or very similar, but here’s why I think Permansio is the best.

As mentioned, the owner of the company was our driver today, and he is a great guide! Very knowledgeable and friendly. We actually feel like we made a new friend here today. If you are into learning more of the culture and history of the area, and going to the Plitvice National Park, we highly recommend this company.

They pick up and drop off at your hotel. The relationship with this company and the restaurant is very good, and we felt like we were treated like family.

The customers who book with Permansio are their top priority.

We had a great time and we would use this company for any and all tours when we come back to Zagreb and surrounding area.
