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!
