Leave Venice for the Day, the Dolomites Await

Great, full day drive up to the Dolomites from Venice in a comfortable van. Our tour guide/driver Cristiano was very accommodating and gave us the best mix of information, while allowed us the time to explore several areas at our own pace and interest. Highly recommended for anyone looking to get out of the bustle of Venice and get a good primer to a beautiful area in Northern Italy. Grazie mille!

A beautiful area to visit, wish it was more comfortable.

We had 8 persons in a small van, each seat filled with adults in three rows . Very crowded for a long day of touring. We were given a lot of photo opportunities and information about the mountains and area. The driver offered to take our pictures which we appreciate.

Dolomites & Coftina from Venice

Marco Z was an amazing driver and guide!He knows the Dolomites like the back of his hand! The 2 hour drive was gorgeous and passed quickly. If coming from Venice, pre -arrange your transportation to the meeting spot, we (8) went to and from our hotel in a water taxi .The tour guide or Vistor, etc can do this for you, Highly recommend Marco Z and this tour!

So glad we booked this! Perfection!

What fantastic day trip from Venice! Marcos was excellent, the booking details and meet-up instructions were plain and easy to understand, and the transport van was clean, comfortable, and in good repair. Despite being cloudy, the scenery was majestic and Marcos took us to individualized places to maximize visibility. He even gave us personalized instructions for which Vaporetto to take for our next destination. I'm so happy with this tour!
