Annarita from Cortina Taxi Sci was fantastic! Great communication throughout the journey, she adapted to our flexible plans and even helped us improvise a new route that suited us perfectly. Her knowledge of the area was impressive and added to the overall experience. Highly recommend her services!

It was a beautiful experience thanks to Andrea and Annarita. The weather was quite pleasant (luckily). It was interesting to see the varying landscapes (complete white followed by greenery and back to snow...) all along the way and get to know interesting facts about the surrounding region. The road has many twists and turns (as expected in such areas) - just something to keep it mind. The tour itself was very well organized and executed. Highly recommended if you're looking for a similar experience.

Our driver, Devid, was a very pleasant man who drove us with exceptional care around “hundreds” of switch back, hairpin turns! No words to describe the beauty and majesty of the Italian Alps! Because we were so wanting to see an alpine lake that was not frozen, (lakes not on this tour), Devid took us a few minutes outside Cortina to see a restaurant on a little lake full of trout! The only suggestion would be to provide water to clients.

Beautiful Mountain views in every direction. So relaxing to take it in without having to drive on narrow mountain roads.
