Guidekin's take

A full day in the Dolomites in an eight seat minivan with a driver guide: Lake Misurina, viewpoints of the Tre Cime di Lavaredo, an easy nature walk and free time in Cortina.

Lunch is at your own expense, the Tre Cime foothills are reachable only in season and fair weather, and hotel pickup is not included. 4.65 from 1,564 reviews for 10h.

In our comparison: #9 of 10 in Day Trips from Venice, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
