We went to Italy for 3 weeks in October and this day trip was our favourite day of the whole trip! The Dolomites are stunning and shouldn't be missed. A wonderful way to experience them without the stress or expense of staying and driving in the mountains

Marco was very informative, punctual and creative. My wife and I had a great time seeing Cortina and Tres Cime and conversing with the other passengers.

Carlo was our driver, older gentleman... plenty of kind Nonno/Grandpa vibes. This excursion was a highlight of our trip, added much needed variety to our time in Venice. We love the mountains, and boy, were these gorgeous! Some incredible views, especially in the second half of the day. I've never seen more light blue colored water. We had a delicious lunch at a hotel restaurant by lake Misurina. Very much comfort food. Cortina was a very neat and picturesce town. This was a wonderful time, if you love the mountains, this is great!
