We thoroughly enjoyed the tour. What would have made it even better would have been some commentary as we were driving throughout the different area and towns as explaining things. The tour guide was awesome and drove us to many places throughout the day. He gave us enough time visiting each place as we wouldn't have seen as much as we did if we spent longer in each place. I would highly recommend this trip if you are thinking of doing it.

This trip gives you a nice taste of the Dolomites. The town of Cortina is just gorgeous and the stops along the way to our final destination were just breathtaking. My only complaint is I wish we could have stayed longer but I already knew going into the tour that wasn’t possible. Our guide Marco was amazing. Could tell he had a passion for the Dolomites!
