5.00My daughter and I have been traveling in Italy now for 2 weeks. This was the most relaxing and enjoyable day of the trip. Dolomites were beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our time at lake Misurina and had a delicious lunch at the restaurant by the lake. Our guide Christiano was great! The day was so good that my teenage daughter even had interest in going for a walk around Venice in the evening and attending a Vivaldi music concert!
Wonderful experience

5.00Had the best time traveling from Venice to the Dolomites with our small group and Marco. The weather was a bit rainy and cloudy, however, Marco did his absolute best to make sure we had the best experience and even stopped on our route multiple times to catch a glimpse and photos of the mountain ranges when they would peak out from the clouds. Such a great switch up from Venice, would highly recommend!
Marco is the best!

5.00Diego was an excellent guide who shared lots of interesting information about the region, Italian culture, and our stops. There were lots of photo stops along the way and he planned the stops around the inclement weather, which allowed us to maximize our experience.
Spectacular views
