South Tyrol private tour: start here, not in Venice
A South Tyrol private tour solves a problem the shared Dolomites day trips have: they leave from Venice, so a large part of the day is spent on the road. Prices are starting prices from November 2026, and the per-person figures divide the group price by the party size.
Four options cover three plans. Take the six-hour Great Dolomites Road by car for up to 8 people, the ten-hour Lago di Braies and Tre Cime day for two, or one of two two-hour walks in Merano.
Our picks: private tours in the Dolomites and Merano
Two private days in the Dolomites, one for up to 8 people and one for two, and two private walks through Merano.
Hand-picked tours, booked through GetYourGuide. Prices are indicative starting prices in euros (as of October 2026). Tap a tour for live availability and the current price in your currency.

Compare two private Dolomites days and two private Merano walks, with current availability.
Private Dolomites days by car
The Great Dolomites Road trip lasts six hours and includes hotel pickup and drop-off, a driver-guide and bottled water. Food and drinks are extra. It costs €1,300 for the whole group of up to 8: €162.50 each for eight, €216.67 for six and €325 for four. This is the better fit for a family or a group of friends who want one vehicle and one driver for the day.
The Lago di Braies and Tre Cime day lasts ten hours and is priced at €1,490 for up to two people, which is €745 each. It includes transport, a private guide, visits to Lago di Braies, Tre Cime di Lavaredo and Tyrolean villages, stories of mountain folklore and a board of cheese and local delicacies. A mountain lunch and gratuities are extra. Choose it as a couple who want both famous stops in one long day with pickup included.
Private walks in Merano
Both Merano walks last two hours and are priced per group. The guided walk from Corso della Libertà 45 costs €348 for up to 15 people. A local guide stays with your group only, and you can customize the route on the spot. Six people pay €58 each, ten pay €34.80 and fifteen pay €23.20. Admission and gratuities are extra.
The historic walk starts at Via Cavour 1 and costs €353 for up to 20 people. It passes the Statue of Empress Sissi and the Post Bridge, then goes through the Cathedral of St. Nicholas, along Via dei Portici and through the Steinach district. The Wandelhalle, the Puccini theatre and the Kurhaus are seen from outside. Six people pay €58.83 each, ten pay €35.30 and twenty pay €17.65.
Small-group tours: when sharing is the better choice
For one or two people, sharing costs far less. A two-hour small-group walk in Bolzano is €20 per person, so two people pay €40 against €348 for a private Merano walk. For the Dolomites, a small-group minivan day from Venice costs €107 per person for nine hours with a driver-guide. Four people pay €428, but that day starts in Venice. Pick the private Dolomites car day if you want to begin at your South Tyrol hotel. Our South Tyrol tours page compares the shared options.
