- Jeri· October 10th, 2024The hiking trip to the Dolomites was fabulous. The itinerary for the week was well laid out. Our guide, Andy Hodges, was absolutely fantastic. The week before our group got there, there was significant snowfall in the areas we were to hike. Andy took the time and effort to make sure each of our hikes were safe and do-able. On our free day, he even hiked one of the routes to make sure we could do it and it was safe from avalanches. It was not, so from his experience and vast knowledge of the area, he was able to provide a better route foe the day. Andy's friendliness and energetic spirit was very contagious. I love the way he was able to provide easier alternatives to some of the longer hikes. The hike to Tre Time was incredible and was my absolute favorite of the week.Show moreTrip date: September 2024
- CSCary· September 19th, 2024It’s very nice to have the transportation arranged between Venice and Dobbiaco. Since the weather is unpredictable, the guide, Andy, made the daily schedule flexible to fit the weather. It’s great.Explore! commented on this reviewThank you for your review. I'm so pleased that you enjoyed your time with us in the Dolomites. Andy is passionate about the region and our local expert leaders are something we are very proud of at Explore.Trip date: September 2024
- Louise· September 6th, 2024We have been on approximately 8 group treks in past 12 years. The Dolomites trip ranks well up there. The accommodations were fine. We had a nice room and good breakfasts. Dinners were ok. Lunches were adequate. Missing condiments! Our group was extremely cohesive which really makes a good trip. Eduardo was clever about options for our group and picked the best hikes for the weather and skill levels. Only one scary hike when the thunder and lightning chased us off the strudel summit. Felt that was a bit delayed in descending. I think 15 is too many for one guide. We had a medical issue and Eduardo seemed not to take it seriously enough and rushed on ahead. He corrected himself and unloaded the hiker of his gear and slowed to his pace. We almost missed the gondola but in the end, it was ok. Other groups we have been with had a person (not necessarily guide) be a “caboose” for safety sake. Overall Eduardo did a fabulous job and certainly knows his Dolomiti! We will definitely choose another trip with Explore.Show moreExplore! commented on this reviewThank you for sharing your experience on the Dolomites trek!

- Reyna· July 21st, 2024My husband and I thought the tour was not what we expected. The hotel was a star 1-2 standard. The rooms were very antiquated. Beds very small you felt the bed almost on the floor. Bathrooms tiny not to mentioned the shower.Explore! commented on this reviewThank you for your feedback.

- CFCarol· June 28th, 2024The Dolomites hiking trip was a 10 out of 10. Our guide, Andy, was excellent and so knowledgeable about the area and hikes we were doing.
