Travel guide Italie - Alpes italiennes et Dolomites

Whether you decide to travel to the Italian Alps and the Dolomites by plane or by train, the principle is the same: plan ahead and buy a ticket a few months before departure. Depending on the area you want to discover first, aim for Turin, Milan or Venice. If you want to drive yourself there, be aware that driving on mountain roads can be tiring. Remember to take breaks!

Specialized or generalist agencies offer well-tried tours to the Italian Alps and the Dolomites, generally combining several stages between Piedmont, Valle d'Aosta, the Lake District and Veneto. You can also work with these agencies to create a customized trip based on a specific theme: an active trip, a cultural tour, gastronomic discoveries...

For long distances, you can opt for domestic flights, which are expensive but practical when you are short of time. If buses also connect the big cities, you can choose to travel by car for a greater autonomy. If you do not have your own car, it is generally more interesting to rent one on the internet.
