The beginning of the tour started out bumpy because after we left, the guide realized that 2 people had gotten on the wrong bus. This could have been avoided with a head count but instead we had to go back and we lost time. The rest of the day became one of my favorite parts of my Italy trip. The guide in Verona, Francesco, was absolutely fantastic!

5 out of 5 stars

Great excursion- very knowledgeable guide and our bus driver was incredible! The bus was just very warm and you spend many hours on the bus. My advice would be to dress in layers, bring snacks and euros. Only 3 stops on this trip with the longest being 2 hours. Would still recommend to see the Dolomites!
