Beautiful day in the Dolomites - This was a long day but well worth it. We went at the end of September and had beautiful weather which definitely made the trip. We paid extra for the cable car up to Passo Pordoi and had plenty of time to explore at the top. Our guide Frederick was very knowledgeable about the area and explained a lot of history on the journey. Coach driver was excellent not sure how he navigated the tight narrow bends.
Definitely recommend this trip.

Seeing and experiencing the Dolomites is imperative! - We left before daylight on this very long bus trip from Desenzano, del Garda. But, even before we boarded the bus we enjoyed gorgeous pre-sunrise views. The gentleman running the tour was very sweet natured, extremely informative regarding the history of all the areas we passed, and perhaps a bit verbose. We made a morning stop in a great little cafe with reasonably priced cappuccino and croissants. So delicious I went back for seconds on both. It’s a long trip, very long — some of the towns we stopped in were touristy end of little interest to me. But as we drew closer to the mountain peaks, the views became magnificent, there so many beautiful formations to see. The tram up to the top is a must. The ride was smooth and it was exciting looking out and seeing the changes as we went up higher. At the very top, there was snow and it was quite cold. Make sure you have a hat, gloves, scarf and a warm jacket ( the tour was at the end of September). The views are majestic in all directions. There were several paragliders that were fun to watch. At the top is a little restaurant where I warmed up with some hot chocolate. We had the most competent bus driver imaginable, as that we went around many hairpin turns on narrow roads during our journey. We left before 7am and returned after 7pm. We stopped briefly in a touristy town afterwards and enjoyed an interesting museum with fantastic wood sculptures — saw some amazing sights in a church. After we went to the top of the mountain, I would have chosen to head back since the day was a bit too long.

Dolomites - Unfortunately it was very cloudy when we went up the gondola to the top of the mountain so we did not get to see the beautiful view. HOWEVER, the bus ride up and back and the stops along the way were well worth it. Beautiful scenery.

Good to have a fantastic guide! - Thomas our guide is fantastic! Entertaining and friendly. The tour is good . I know Dolomite is hue, so many area we need to explore! My suggestion is you should expand more different area. Not just only the same area all the time. But we still love it. From Florida, USA.

Disappointed - We built our vacation around the trip to the Dolomites. Unfortunately, weather wasn’t in our favor. The four of us were very disappointed, we thought the trip should have been canceled. Two of us paid $35 CASH TO GO ON THE LIFT TO SEE NOTHING. That was an absolute ripoff. They stupidly paid and saw NOTHING.

Unfortunate event - We took this excursion, I had been planning for over a year. The ride was beautiful, however, the first snow had fallen and my husband took the cable car ride, with practically zero visibility. Very disappointing. I feel the tour director should have been forthcoming and said visibility is bad, but who wants to take the $30 ride are aware of this.
