Anonymous Smooth ride. The bus came on time and arrived shortly after the predicted time. The instructions are unclear. The ticket and the map do not mention stopping at Plitvice Lakes entrance 1. I had to ask the operator by email to confirm that the bus stops there. On top of that I had to check with locals and Google reviews to be sure that I am waiting at the right place.

Anonymous Bus delay, incorrect bus stop location from email. Comfortable. Bus stop location from email is not correct, bus stop did not specify which direction it goes, bus did not come on time, I thought I missed the bus. People could buy ticket right on the bus, but clearly it is already over booked. Some travellers who booked ticket before the trip did not have a seat.
