Fabulous - book it! - My 10yo son had one request for our holiday - to see snow. We booked this tour after another provider on Viator cancelled our existing booking with not much notice (although still offered “private tours” for six times the price…) This activity was fabulous!!! An excellent day trip with our fabulous guide Marco who shared his deep knowledge (and love) of the area. It is so incredibly scenic! Just breathtaking. Easy pick up at Piazzale Roma with clear instructions, a very comfortable air conditioned van, several stops on the way for sightseeing and leg stretching, a LOT of walking to see everything there was to see (although I assume you could opt to stay at a cafe instead of walking - but the views more than made up for it!!). A nice lunch at your own expense at a hotel restaurant just past Lake Misurina. Best thing we have done in our trip so far. Grazie Marco!!

Delightful Dolomites - Wow! The Dolomites are spectacular. Marco was our driver/guide and shared his passion for the Dolomites with us. In the winter be prepared for the cold temperatures and walking on snow and ice. It was a memorable day!

The Dolomites are... - The Dolomites are breathtaking. The ride up itself went quickly and we learned a lot about the region from our guide, Simone, on the way. There were plenty of stops for photos and some lovely short walks. The day felt unhurried and was thoroughly enjoyable. Simone was easygoing, friendly, interesting and knowledgeable. And, an added bonus, a great driver! I never felt unsafe going up the switchbacks. Absolutely gorgeous area!

We had a wonderful day with Christian !! - All stops as expected and beautiful- though cold day in January. Stunning mountain and lake views. Even a special extra stop to chase a lead on a relation at Christian’s insistence. Bonus stop for gelato as well. Stops for coffee, restrooms and a lovely lunch (potato gnocchi and goulash). The van was comfortable seating 8 guests and he was kind enough to allow us to bring along our luggage. Christian - was very personable, engaging and pleasant - highly recommend.

Dolomites imperdible - Our experience exceeded all expectations. We were lucky to have Marco as our guide. A sensational professional, which we recommend for those who want to know the Dolomites. Going to Venice and not doing this tour undoubtedly loses a lot, as the tour is amazing and super recommend. It was a wonderful day and full of discoveries. I repeat the guide made all the difference. Very good.

Best day trip from Venice - The trip began on a crisp morning with a wonderful group of fellow travellers. Our guide, Mr. Carlo, was truly exceptional. A real gem. He not only guided us but also kept the entire journey lively and engaging. He was kind, cheerful, and incredibly knowledgeable. Every stop along the way was absolutely worth it. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Everything went perfectly from start to finish.
