5-Nights Uplifting Adventures in the Dolomites - Tailormade Journeys — CALL

Abercrombie & Kent

OFFER ID 1675352

The Dolomites possess a raw, jagged beauty that takes your breath away. The air is so clear, the colors so bright that you feel as though you have woken from a dream. Summer is particularly life-affirming, when from June to September the snow retreats revealing wildflower meadows and azure lakes, drawing hikers, cyclists and adventurists, nature-lovers and food-lovers. Pretty alpine towns such as Cortina d’Ampezzo – snow-covered ski resorts in winter – become destinations for foodies in summer, where slopeside restaurants with cinematic widescreen views serve up award-winning cuisine. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage site for its exceptional natural beauty, the mountain range also holds darker secrets; it was a lesser-known front in WWI, bitterly fought over, and today you can see the trenches, forts, and tunnels within the Marmolada Glacier.

Venice

With a great historic past and incomparable art treasures, Venice is renowned as one of the world’s great cities. Its 118 islands are separated by more than 150 canals and spanned by 400 bridges. During Venice's artistic golden age many magnificent structures were erected to create world-famous masterpieces. One of the best sightseeing routes is along Grand Canal, with many palaces lining the famous waterway. St. Mark’s Square offers access to some of Venice’s most famed attractions - St. Mark’s Basilica and Doge’s Palace. From Piazza San Marco, a maze of narrow streets are lined with shops, cafés and restaurants. A popular pastime is sitting at an outdoor café facing the square while people-watching and letting the whole marvelous scenario unfold. Venice’s Murano, Burano and Torcello Islands comprise an area famous as home of Venice’s glass-blowing industry and known for their charm, skilled lace-making and medieval monuments.
