Italian Alps Tours & Trips
The Italian Alps are different from the Swiss Alps next door, and it’s time to see why. The Dolomites' dramatic peaks, South Tyrol's German-Italian mix, and mountain refugios serving incredible pasta. The Italian Alps blend alpine scenery with Italian food culture in brilliant ways. You'll hike gorgeous trails, eat ridiculously well, and experience mountains that feel distinctly Italian.

My entire trip in the Dolomites was GREAT! Denis our guide was friendly, engaging, helpful, and adaptive. He has excellent communication skills and emotional awareness. The hiking locations were great - I really feel that I saw the BEST of the Dolomites! The days were well planned and thought out. The hotel in Dobbiaco was nice, clean and was centrally convenient in the city center! Bravo!

Overall the tour was great. We had a total of 3 different guides, all of whom were knowledgeable and helpful and had a good command of the language. On the last day, there was a lot of travel time on major highways through areas that are not at all scenic but I don't think that could be helped since we had to get to our final destination. I would recommend this tour. It was fun, scenic, and informative.

- Spring 2026
Spring in the Italian Alps brings some fantastic tours that our customers consistently praise. The 4-day northern lakes circuits starting from Milan let you catch those perfect spring reflections at Lake Como and Lake Maggiore, before the summer crowds arrive. TourRadar customers particularly enjoy the boat trips to Bellagio and the Borromean Islands, when the gardens start blooming. For those seeking more active experiences, the Lake Como walking tours based in Gravedona offer well-planned routes through vineyards and mountain villages - though our travelers note the climbs can be steeper than expected. The self-drive options give you flexibility to explore at your own pace, with popular stops including Villa Carlotta's spring gardens and Bergamo's historic upper city accessed by funicular. What works particularly well in spring is combining different lakes - Maggiore, Como and also Garda - as the weather tends to be ideal for both sightseeing and gentle hikes. Our guides earn special praise for adapting routes based on spring conditions and finding those perfect picnic spots among the early wildflowers.

- Summer 2026
Summer in the Italian Alps opens up perfectly planned hiking routes that work with the long, bright days. Dobbiaco makes an ideal base for walks like the forest and meadow trail to Lake Braies. Our TourRadar customers particularly appreciate how the guides read the weather - on good days they'll take you up Monte Elmo at 2,434 meters where you can actually stand between Italy and Austria. The lakes and mountains tours hit their stride in summer, mixing walks above Lake Como with time in pretty towns like Bellagio. For those wanting more challenge, the routes through Ampezzo Dolomites Natural Park lead past waterfalls and up to mountain huts. Guides consistently earn praise for knowing exactly when to offer tougher routes and also when to suggest gentler options.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn in the Italian Alps brings out exceptional experiences on our three-day Lake Como tours, where TourRadar customers particularly appreciate the crisp air and quieter trails. The tours starting from Milan combine morning city exploration with afternoon lake activities, letting you join local aperitivo culture in the Navigli district before heading to Bellagio when the summer crowds have thinned. Our seven-day Dolomites programs shine in autumn too, using Cortina d'Ampezzo as a base to explore Lake Misurina and Lake Dobbiaco while the surrounding forests turn golden. The timing works perfectly for sampling wines along Italy's oldest wine route, and trying seasonal specialties like mountain cheeses. The four-day northern lakes circuit hits Lake Orta, Maggiore, Como and also Garda, when the weather is ideal for both hiking and boat tours - our travelers often mention how much they enjoy the balance of active mornings and cultural afternoons during this season. The walks above Gravedona offer spectacular views over Lake Como with comfortable temperatures, for climbing to spots like St Eufemia church and exploring the vineyards around Aurogna.
