“A wonderful day out, meeting point was really easy to locate and as per map point. Booked 10am trip. Coach journey was a delayed due to latecomers (frustrating for everyone waiting) and also traffic. Tour guide collected cash for Krka tickets whilst en route on the bus and distributed tickets before entrance, 1hr45mins free at the park and VERY clear instructions of the meeting point plus recommendations of park walking routes to best utilise the time following the yellow line/wooden bridge route. 2 hours in Skradin was more than enough for a small but beautiful place. Beach at Skradin is a pebble beach but very pleasant and super clear waters.…”
