We did a tour to Lago de Braies. It was truly an unforgettable experience. Ivan and Cristian were the best tour guides. They are very knowledgeable. They also answered my questions before the trip. My 3 yr old took the trip as well. They were very accommodating bringing her stroller and storing it since I needed it for the walk back to our airbnb. They made suggestions on where to hike the lake so it was safer since it was very icy. The drive is long. They do offer potty breaks and breaks for food. Bring a book or something to do on the ride. I suggest bringing your own snacks, water or meal to have on the lake. There is one restaurant at the lake if you don’t want to bring food. 10/10 I would tour with them again .

Our guide Tej was great. knowledgeable, courteous, patient and helpful. The tour enlightened us and educated on us with facts and stories about Lugano and Switzerland. we took the auto ferry from Bellagio then drove there in under an hour. roads are great and the town is welcoming and clean. such beauty on the lake and the mountains.

Monica was kind, sweet, willing, smiling and very helpful! Our tour guide in Verona, very knowledgeable, knowledgeable about the history of the city and a fan of it. Overall the trip was excellent!

I enjoyed finding things at my own pace and also being able to explore the incidental interests that I passed between points of interest without losing “my group” or holding them up.

Tiring but very good. Wonderful guides and the scenery exceeded expectations.
