From Venice: Day Tour to the Dolomites and Braies Lake

4.7 (146 verified reviews)

About This Experience

DFP Travels runs the comfortable version of the Venice–Braies day: hotel, airport or Piazzale Roma pickup, a Mercedes V-Class with at most eight passengers, water and an Italian breakfast on board. 146 guests have rated it 4.7 out of 5.

After Pieve di Cadore and the Auronzo lake the van continues to Braies, where the listing says a dedicated pass lets it drive close to the lake. You get about 45 minutes at the shore, two hours at Lake Misurina for lunch and a walk, and an hour in Cortina d'Ampezzo before the return.

Braies here is a shorter stop than on some routes; the trade is more time at Misurina and a more comfortable day overall.

The best trip I did in Italy. The views are just amazing and worth the long day. had the best experience on this tour, highly recommend. Even got engaged on this trip 💍

Nicolo was a very knowledgeable and polite guide. He was very engaged in conversations with us. He showed us all the the exciting and note worthy sites to see along the way. one of the passengers on our trip left her camera behind at 1 of the stops. So he found us a wonderful trail and location to drop us off to enjoy the beautiful day and the sights to walk while he went back for the camera.
