The highlight of our trip!
It was a fabulous experience and a great memory. The Dolomites were spectacular and our guide was informative, organized and helpful, accommodating all our needs. I highly recommend this excursion!

Dolomites were amazing !!
Paola was our guide into the Dolomites, and our family enjoyed her personality and knowledge. She was so easy to spend the day around, and she knows of the best pastry shops, restaurants, and mountain top lifts. We enjoyed some time in Cortina before heading to the lift. The Dolomites were amazing and so rugged. Paola obtained reservations for us to eat a wonderful lunch at the top of the lift. It was definitely worth visiting the Dolomites. We visited Rome, Amalfi Coast and Venice on our vacation to Italy. The Dolomites and Amalfi Coast were equally beautiful. Cortina will soon host the Winter Olympics, and the world will then know of the beautiful Dolomites.

Dolomiti experienced
Breathtaking views for sure. Having spent the time searching for a group of 6, this tour was exactly what we needed- private tour guide and driver. The stops, walking tour were fantastic- not all riding. Got to smell the fresh mountain air, ride up a gondola to mountain chateau, short hike and a breathtaking luncheon. Wonderful experience!!!!

Unforgettable Day amidst the Legendary Dolomites organised by the Incomparable Top Venice
Until our dying day we will remember this extraordinary Tour planned expertly by Giordana Losi of Top Venice. We were collected in the morning from our Venice Hotel by Marco, our knowledgable, experienced and very affable photographer-guide and driven directly to the Giau Pass via the beautiful town of Cortina d'Ampezzo. Before taking the Alverau chairlift, we stopped at many view points to take photographs. As we rose up in our open chairlifts, we saw the littered remains of the Dolomites. As Marco explained, the Dolomites have not always been mountains but have in fact emerged from an ancient sea. This became clear to us once the chairlift deposited us off and we walked down towards the breath taking formations of the Cinque Torri. Tectonic activity has broken up the Dolomite region into many sectors, raising or lowering them and creating unusual shapes like peaks, towers, needles, pinnacles- seeing the Cinque Torri rise up like the teeth of some ancient beast, clearly evidenced this fact. Whilst we walked amongst the majestic Dolomites with Marco by our side, capturing us on his camera and turning our every step into memories, we were aware that we were in fact treading on a living landscape which breathes, moves and changes all the time. Whilst in the Cinque Torri area we were fortunate to dine at two uber restaurants- Rifugio Averau Hutte (as you exit the Alverau chair lift) and Rifugio Scoiattoli (with a glorious view of the Cinque Torri). At the former restaurant we had exclusive locally sourced appetizers with wine, very kindly orgainsed by Giordana as a surprise for our famiily, at the latter we had a delicious lunch made with local produce. The Dolomites area is home to the Ladin people, who speak a unique language and have a blend of Italian and Austrian culture. Many of them work at the chair lifts and restaurants and it's fascinating to interact with them. It is little wonder then that we were very reluctant to board the final chairlift and descend into the Falzarego Pass where our driver was waiting to whisk us back to our Venice Hotel. Top Venice offers many different and exciting itineraries for the Dolomites depending on individual interests. Our brief to Giordana was that we wanted an entirely immersive experience. We wanted to spend the day amongst them, surrounded by them, completely away from civilization. Giordana ensured we got exactly what we asked for. Save the local Ladin people and serious hikers and climbers, we were the only tourists in the area who had just come to enjoy and soak in the scenery of this World Heritage Site. Being photographed by the very talented Marco amidst and with these ancient wonders as a backdrop, having him capture us with the living Dolomites for all eternity, well, that was the icing on the cake! ~Felicia Variava Albert, Managing Director, Blaze Tours & Travels Pvt.

Why this scores 47
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Dolomites Day Trip from Venice by Mercedes Van: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.
How much does Private Dolomites Day Trip from Venice by Mercedes Van cost?
+
Prices start at $1900 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Dolomites Day Trip from Venice by Mercedes Van take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.
Is Private Dolomites Day Trip from Venice by Mercedes Van worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 47 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Dolomites Day Trip from Venice by Mercedes Van?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Dolomites Day Trip from Venice by Mercedes Van suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Dolomites Day Trip from Venice by Mercedes Van?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Dolomites Day Trip from Venice by Mercedes Van start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Venice?
+
On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pasta and Tiramisu Cooking Class with Wine in Venice, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Venice Bacaro Food Tour: Eat and Drink like a Venetian. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Venice?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Venice?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
