Marco had made this tour so much more enjoyable with his bubbly personality and all the information he provided. If you book this tour you’ll be SO lucky to have Marco as your tour guide. Moreover, the sights were stunning especially with the autumn colored landscapes. We were so lucky to enjoy a sunny day in the mountains 😍”

The little town we went to didn't have the best vegetarian options for lunch, but there were enough to make do. We had enough time to eat and still walk around the stunning lake. I highly recommend this experience!”

Also we saw waterfalls and a huge rainbow from our windows. And then we tried our very first gelatos. The other people in our group were also very nice, my daughter chatted with them crazily when we were going back. Thank you for giving us such a great memory! 💞”

My advice for those choosing to take the tour this time of year is to dress very warmly even if Venice does not warrant it. Despite the pouring rain the next day, the aqua alta with the…”
