Small Groups – Big Experiences

We believe the Dolomites are best experienced in good company, not in crowds. That’s why our tours are deliberately kept small. With us, you’re not just another face in a large group – you’re part of a close-knit circle of like-minded travelers.

Smaller groups mean more flexibility, more personal attention, and more meaningful moments. It also means that you won’t feel rushed or overlooked. This isn’t mass tourism – it’s an intimate adventure crafted just for you.

Experience the Dolomites with Local Guides

Our guides know these mountains better than anyone because they spend their lives in them. Some were born here, others chose the Dolomites as their home – but we all share the same passion for this extraordinary landscape.

They love sharing their knowledge of the mountains, from the natural environment to the character of the valleys, and the history that defines the Dolomites. With them, every day on the trail feels less like following a schedule and more like discovering the Dolomites alongside someone who truly cares about the place.

We promise, you won’t just follow a route – you’ll experience the mountains through the eyes of people who truly care about them.

Safety First in the Dolomites

Adventure should be exciting, but never at the expense of safety. That’s why we put your well-being at the centre of everything we do.

All of our guides are fully certified, experienced, and trained to handle the mountain environment with professionalism and care.

Before each activity, you’ll receive a clear safety briefing and the right equipment for the day. Whether you’re hiking, cycling, or clipping onto a via ferrata, you can relax knowing you’re in safe, capable hands. With us, you can focus on the experience – not the worries.

If you choose a self-guided tour, you will receive a complete guide of safety recommendations based on the tour and activity type(s).

No Surprises

We believe in clarity and honesty. When you book with us, you’ll know exactly what’s included – your accommodation, daily itineraries, transfers, and equipment hire are all taken care of. The only things not included are personal expenses such as snacks, drinks, some lunches and dinners (as noted in each tour itinerary), and your souvenirs. Once you have booked and paid, there are no surprises or hidden extras. This way, you can enjoy your holiday without worrying about logistics or unexpected costs.

Our small family group (2 adults and 2 teenagers) had an AMAZING time with Dolomite Active. Our trip in the Dolomites is one of most memorable active family holidays!! 😁 We chose a multisport 7 day tour and experienced so many beautiful places, including Marmolada and Lake Garda. Our tour guides were all very professional, knowledgeable, but also kind, fun and customer oriented. They even arranged a hike instead of a via ferrata on one of the days. We really appreciate the personal service and can’t wait to come back!! Thank you Dolomite Active team!!! 😁

Amazing!!
What a trip! From day one, everything ran so smoothly that we could just relax and enjoy ourselves. The guides were absolute pros and always thinking ahead so the group got the most out of each day. We had so many “wow” moments where you just have to stop and soak it all in. Great food, welcoming hotels, and a perfect balance of adventure and relax time. If you’re looking for a trip that’s easy, fun, and unforgettable, then I have no problem recommending Dolomites Active Tours.

Excellent organization! Everything was very well organised and we didn’t have to think about a thing. We did the multisport (hiking, cycling and ferrata) over 7 days. There was a good mix of activity and downtime and we ate lots of delicious mountain foods. Hotels were very good, especially the smaller family run places. The mountain bikes and via ferrata equipment was all top notch. The guides were very professional. I highly recommend Dolomites Active Tours.

We have hiked a lot this last 3-4 years, but our memories of the Dolomites are the most special. We chose a self guided hiking trip in the Brenta Dolomites. The full nine day tour seemed too long, but we were able to modify our trip to a shorter 7 day version. Thanks to the team at Dolomites Active for helping with all our questions. We were given everything, including detailed route guidance and maps – it made the trip very stress free. As for the huts we stayed in 4 different places. Waking up each day to a different view and every evening we ate delicious local foods, washed down with Italian wine! The shared bedrooms and bathrooms are not so bad… I can only say it is by far better than camping! The Dolomites was so beautiful, we are desperate to go back, we hope it will be soon.

Justin has been so helpful in planning our Dolomites hiking tour, he was always there answering to all my questions, was nice to face time each other and talk about the tour rather than just over emails. I would definitely book future tour with Justin only, extremely the best customer service.
