Wonderful way to Explore Dolomites

5.00Today my husband & I took the Best of Dolomites in one day tour with Alessandro as our guide. We had perfect weather & a perfect day. Alessandro was timely, organized and extremely pleasant to be with. We were picked up at 8am and began with a stop at Lago Carrezza. Our next stop was to ride the cable car to the top to see the lovely view of the area. The remainder of our day was splendid sightseeing in the Dolomites which is spectacular. If you have a day to spend in the Dolomites, we would highly recommend this tour with Alessandro. He is from Bolzano so extremely knowledgeable of the history and the area. Thank you Alessandro for such a lovely dayđ©·â€ïž

5.00Alex is amazing! He got in touch with me immediately after making the reservation and stayed in communication until our tour. Alex is first rate number 1. He knows the Dolomites and will adjust your schedule accordingly should the weather conditions change and you still wonât miss out because there is so much to see. Alex is fun and engaging and allows just enough time at each spot. This was probably one of our favorite tours and thatâs a big thanks to Alex.
A Memorable Day Trip in the Dolomites

5.00If you are thinking of visiting the Dolomites from Bolzano and in need of a perfect companion, tour guide and advisor with you then go for Alex (ItalyDolomites) without any doubt. He knows the area very well and has wonderful recommendations. He is punctual & professional yet very friendly and even would customise your itinerary based on your preferences. But even if you customise, take his advice as his suggestions will definitely make the trip easy and pleasurable. Of course the locations are breathtaking, from Lago di Braies, Val de Funes, Alpe di Siusi, Ortisei and Lago di Carezza but the stories from Alex and his knowledge made our day trip memorable.

5.00Alex was incredible. We could have driven to all of the same sites and never had the experience we had with Alex. Deeply knowledgeable, an amazing conversationalist, safe, prepared for all weather. If I could have taken Alex to every stop in our Italy trip, I would have.

5.00It can definitely be affected by the weather, but no matter it was worth it. !!!! Be prepared for it to get cold. Our guide, Alessandro, was incredible. He made adjustments for the weather and we had great views and picture opportunities. He absolutely made the experience. His knowledge of the area, history, and driving skills and patience were beyond expectations. A truly once in a lifetime experience.
Like getting a tour from a friend!

5.00I booked this tour not knowing what to expect. When we arrived in the Dolomites, we were worried about the height and weather in the mountains as we are from Chicago and are not used to such elevations! Alex made us feel very comfortable and assured us of the weather and but also let us know the tour was flexible should we not want to go to such high elevations. We ended up braving it and we were so glad we did. Being from Bolzano, he knows so much about the areas history and could probably drive the mountains with his eyes closed! We felt so safe and learned so much- even though the weather the day we toured wasnât great we had an amazing time and still saw so much. I canât recommend this tour enough.
Excellent tour guide in an amazing part of the world

5.00The most amazing tour! Allessandro was an excellent tour guide. Instantly likable, professional and a wonderful, safe driver on challenging roads. The perfect blend of historical, cultural and geographical insights, all done with humour and interesting anecdotes. Worth every penny. You will not regret doing this tour.
You will not be disappointed, excellent day trip, well worth the money

5.00Four of us had a fabulous day seeing the sights of the Dolomites with Alex. Alex is very professional, an excellent driver (I had my doubts beforehand about the hairpin bends as I'm a nervous passenger but I had no cause for concern with Alex's driving) and his car is extremely comfortable. Alex is knowledgeable about his home region and the information he shared was interesting. This tour was a little pricey for us given our current exchange rate, but we could not fault it, and it was definitely worth the money to get such a great overview of the Dolomites in just a day. Very highly recommended, you will not be disappointed.

5.00Allesandro couldnât have shown us a better tour. The first day, he researched our family home in Cloz and took us to see the sites and to buy some copper made in the area for more than a hundred years. The second day, he took s on a Grand Tour of the Dolomites. He is obviously in live with this area. We had a great day! He watched the weather and arranged our days so the weather would be the best in the Dolomites. Memories for a lifetime!!!
