Such an incredible day trip. Alessandro is one of the best tour guides I’ve ever experienced. Great communication, knowledgeable, and really cared that we had a good day. We have been recommending him to all our friends and family.

Alessandro was very easy to deal with. He called me on whats app several times to discuss our trip. His driver was waiting for us at the Venice airport to pick us up and take us to our hotel. He also dropped us at the Bolzano airport when we left. Even if you have your own car I do not think you would want to drive yourself. He have us a comprehensive tour of the eastern and western Dolomites. We were with him for 2 full days on 2 different tours We had a very good time and felt as if we saw a lot. The only 2 negatives were as follows. He does not take credit cards and only takes euros in cash. However his fees were the most reasonable for the time of any agencies I contacted. Unlike other guides we had he does not give continued commentary but rather did better when we asked frequent questions. I would recommend him.

We had the best experience visiting the Dolomites! Alex knows so much and his love for the mountains shines through in his tour. It is worth every penny!

We spent 6 fantastic hours with Alesandro driving around and visiting the dolomites. This was our fist excursion to the south Tyrol area and we loved it! It was overcast and snowing on our tour but that did not bother us (we are used to the snow and cold). We stopped at some key spots to view the lakes and mountains as well as some of the mountain towns. Alessandro's knowledge of the area is amazing and we could not have asked for a better guide! We highly recommend this tour.

The changeable weather in May brought snow to the high area we were meant to see. Guide Alessandro gave us the option to cancel or do a low country tour which we did. A thoroughly enjoyable day.

Alessandro is a lovely person who took four of us on kms of switchback roads, through the passes talking about this beloved area he calls home. We met him at a local hotel by the train station and his timing was impeccable. The weather was not in our favour and we didn't see much of the dolomites but we managed to see glimpses of them. This is an expensive tour and to that end it would be of benefit if you did this tour on a clear day (you can cancel up to a certain point), but we had a timeline and wanted to see what we could see. Alessandro shared lots of information along the way and added lots to the trip.

Breathtaking views, wonderful tour guide. Just a wonderful day. I would highly recommend this tour everyone!

Alessandro Scacchetti (Alex) really knows the Dolomites. We thought of renting a car and trying to see them ourselves, but paying him was worth every euro and more! He LOVES these mountains, and knows where to go to see them, explain the history and geography, and get fantastic photos. If you look at personalized or private tours on Viator, or ToursbyLocals and read the reviews, you are likely to see it is Alex that did the tours. ItalyDolomites is his personal website so go there to make arrangements and contact him. My wife and I went when there were covid restrictions in Italy and we were concerned about spending the day with strangers. He gave us a private tour, let us choose where to go and how long to spend, knowing that I wanted the chance to take some great photos. He did not disappoint. We took great lake pictures, took the cable car (funivia) at Sass Pordoi to get spectacular views of the mountains and the valleys, ate lunch and toured the gorgeous town of Ortisei in Val Gardena, and ended with the Val di Funes for a must have photo. His English is excellent, and he is outgoing and a delight to be with. We spent the day with him and the time passed quickly as every back road we took had beautiful views. He has spent his life with these mountains and knows exactly where to go and how to get there. He is a fantastic guide. Seeing the mountains is one thing; sharing his passion for them made it exceptional.

Alex was a wonderful guide in this stunning part of Italy. He knew the best places to take us to maximize our time and was extremely knowledgeable about the history and facts of the region. We were fortunate to have picked the perfect day for our tour with out a cloud in the sky. I cannot recommend him enough. He made my wife and I feel like family and took great care of us. You need to plan ahead if coming to Bolzano and get him booked!!

My wife and I had Alessandro arrange three tours, one on the Dolomites Western Road with him, a transfer from Bolzano to Lake Misurina and a transfer from Lake Misurina to Venice. The best was a tour with him. He has great energy and happily shared his expertise and the surroundings were beautiful “topped off” by a cable car trip from 7,000 to 10,000 ft where we could spend more than an hour in 360 degree breathtaking beauty. In the other trips necessary transfers became comfortable sightseeing opportunities. Couldn’t be better. If you are going to the Dolomites go with Alessandro. Jan and Jerry

Alex was so informative and accommodating. Really he lets the day be yours - spending the time at beautiful places at your own rate of enjoyment. He never rushed us through any portion of our day. We truly felt he gave us the best day possible of the Dolomites. He even went beyond and gave us suggestions for day trips on our own. We would highly recommend this tour.

We loved every minute of this tour led by Alessandro! He picked us up at the Park Laurin Hotel (Bolzano) in a very nice black Mercedes and off we went. He easily meandered around bicyclist and motorcycles- so glad we weren’t driving! Along the route, he pointed out facts and history about the communities and villages, the effects from a devastating tornado in 2018 and numerous other points of interest. There were plenty of stops to get out and walk around and take pictures; he encouraged us to take as much times as needed. As we drove through the mountains, he explained geological details of the formation, the changes in the weather patterns and answered all of our questions. Once we reached the cable car, he led us up to the entry point and was waiting for us on our return. This tour was so much more than we expected and he was the perfect tour guide! We highly recommend it !

Our driver, Alessandro was delightful. He gave us so much information about the Dolomites and the surrounding area. He even provided us jackets. The weather is very cold at the summit and we welcomed them…

This tour was the most memorable part of our trip and absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Bolzano. Alex is so knowledgeable and really went above and beyond as a tour guide!

Angelo was so informative and engaging. I learned so much about the Dolomites and the surrounding areas. He brought us to many places all with beautiful views. I couldn’t recommend this more!

Excellent trip. Wonderful informed and accommodating driver. Alex, highly recommend him. He was always trying to make sure our trip was a superb and memorable experience

Fantastic tour! Angelo was a great guide (he filled in for Alessandro as he had a medical issue). He was very knowledgeable on the geology, history, and geography of the region. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and thoroughly recommend it - well worth the money.

A jaw dropping kind of day with the beauty of this trip! Matteo, our tour guide, was just incredible and took us to unique places based on our interests. Absolutely would do this trip again!!

Everyone, beloved, Our guide was great; it was a site we wanted to visit, and he assisted in that realization; we will definitely return in the summer to repeat this experience. Thank you very much.

I have been leading natural history tours in Oregon and internationally for over five decades. I know full well what it takes to put together a great tour. Alex is a true professional. He provided us with detailed information about geology and history of the region and provided a wealth of information about the Dolomites which we had expressed specific interest in learning more about. He was very personable, listened to our questions and responded with specific information that we requested. His driving was excellent, which considering the route through the Dolomites is very important! I would highly recommend Alex as a guide to anyone who may be seeking information on familial ties to the region, landscape photography, or general information about the Dolomites, for which he has great passion.
