5.00Stunning! Our day out with Stefania was like a fairytale. Coming from Western Australia where we do not have mountains or snow, seeing the beauty of the Dolomites up close blew us away. Lago de Braies was also dreamlike. The history and information Stefania shared made the entire trip interesting and we learnt so much in a short time. Both teenagers said it was the most beautiful place they had ever been. Perfect day trip. Highly recommend!!!

5.00Stefania was a fantastic guide - she was friendly and knowledgeable and passionate to share her love of the area. The tour was well paced and the scenery stunning. It was well worth the early start - a great day out! Stefania was a safe driver and made sure that everyone was included in the conversation whilst we were driving in her comfortable minibus and she was very happy to answer questions as we went along.

5.00Beauty of the Dolemites was breath taking. Stefania the tour leader was an excellent driver and tour guide giving many historical and current facts as we traveled. Each stop for pictures was filled with stunning beauty of the Dolemites as a backdrop to frozen lakes, snow filled forests and the Olympic village in Cortina. Lago di Braies was a special treat with the frozen lake in the middle of the Dolemites with lunch (separate price) of beef goolash at the small restaurant next to the lake. Best excursion trip on our 12 day tour of Italy! Stefania the tour guide made it a 10 out of 10!
