Very comfortable journey and tour guide very nice and made the journey very interesting with lots of information en route. Scenery outstanding and cable car trip well worth going.

Time in Nature away from the crowded cities! - This is a long tour (11 hours) but well worth it! Our Tour Guide Dieuwke was fantastic - sharing great information and and some humor while speaking in English and German. The bus driver Sebastian navigated the twisting roads with great finesse. I highly recommend it!

Long day but so worth it - Excellent taster trip to see the Dolomites. Very early morning start from south Lake Garda but tour was managed exceptionally well and to time. Guide was very knowledgeable. Set off in heavy rain but very lucky that a lot of clouds cleared so that we could see the scenery by the time we arrived. Awesome even with some peaks in cloud. Would definitely like to go back and spend more time.

Some Issues But Dolomites Gorgeous - The tour was good and the guide knowledgeable. We selected pickup on Viator from Riva del Garda and the pickup location was the bus station. We were staying on the other side of Riva and it was a 45minute walk there. We saw another couple doing this too. The bus came exactly on time at the bus station and we set off only to drive past and pick up several groups in Riva...including right outside our hotel. Us and the other couple were annoyed by this. We had no option on Viator for any other pickup location! The bus seats were unbelievably small
I'm short enough and slim and it was wildy uncomfortable for 10hours. The dolomites are of course gorgeous and worth seeing.

Not good I’m afraid! - This trip did not permit enough time for anything at all!
The morning coffee stop was at a roadside fuel station that was so busy there was not enough time to get a take-away coffee.
The guide told us that at lake saroga she would check the weather condition and then see how many wanted to go up the cable car at Pardoi Pass. We paid €48 cash for two of us to go up to see nothing but white cloud. The restaurant at the top was so busy there were no seats so we descended to go to the Maria Restaurant recommended by our guide. There was no time remaining to eat so we grabbed a coffee and a toastie which we attempted to consume as the bus driver hurtled around the corners. Our coach left pardoi pass at 1.45pm. This is certainly not enough time to take in any sights / go up in cable car and enjoy a lunch.
When we went over sella pass there were views of the peaks however we couldn’t take photos as we were still being hurtled round corners. Such a shame - even a five minute stop would’ve been appreciated by most of the passengers!
We arrived at Ortosei early and left at 4pm.
We were both very fed up and disappointed. My recommendation to anyone who wants to breathe some mountain air and see the dolomites is not to do this trip. We felt hurried, rushed and herded like sheep.
