Gary, Katarina and Timka have just the right combination of skills to make this trip perfect for everyone. Gary’s 40+ years of guiding and intimate knowledge of the area mean he can plan hikes that are suitable for a range of abilities. Katarina and Timka are the “heart” of the operation and a perfect complement to Gary. Hotel Dolsilla is a perfect base - gorgeous views and great food. No one would be disappointed with this trip. And we made some lovely new friends in the two couples who were with us.

It is hard to put into words what a great experience we had on this trip. The Dolomites, the views and the variety of what we would see were even more than expected. Gary had such a wealth of experience in various kinds of trekking and climbing, and his laid back Aussie vibe was perfect as a lead guide. You always felt supported, and that he would not let anyone get into potential danger - but yet you had options as to how you wanted to push (or enjoy) yourself. And Katarina and Timka are just two pearls of human beings. Outside of the walking and looking, the hotel was one of the finest experiences theater I have stayed at. The staff welcomed you in and made you feel like family, the wellness center had so many options and the rooms were made of solid wood and granite, with amazing views. Simply a stunning experience. Lastly, the other people in the group were a fantastic group of people - and we hope to cross paths with them again in the future. In summary, we both felt like this was a great introduction to the Dolomites, where we would like to visit again - and are truly appreciative of Gary and Right Path Adventures. We loved this trip and hope others will too!

While we happen to be an aging couple, we have no lack of hiking adventures and came across Gary Scott's Right Path Adventures some 10 years ago. Feeling it was the right fit with exciting day hikes along the Alta Badia side of the Dolomites, Gary was an awesome outfit of 1 providing all needs for gorgeous and at time vigorous adventures for small groups. While his experiences ranged from Australia to Nepal and Mount Everest (unfortunately, the invasion of Ukraine canceled that trip), he kept exploring and we joined him on the Alta Adagie, south Tyrol side of the Paso Val Gardena in the Dolomites just 3 weeks ago. Once again and joined by his family' the recommendations pre-, post- and during our adventures were spot on, fun, incredibly enjoyable (forests and manicured valleys, rugged mountains and spectacular views, charming villages and expanded trip ideas) and well valued. We sat in the evenings at our 3 and 4 star inns reminiscing and so please with the days choices. The lodging and food were great, transportation in a family van to the gondolas or trailhead was easy. The flexibility incorporated into his plans provides great experiences come rain or shine. We have already booked our next adventure with Gary to his new home and new adventure in Slovakia. More mountains (the Carpathian Tatras) huts, castles, small towns, spectacular scenery and challenging days with relaxing evenings, food experiences and all worked out for small groups with great value. He has added the Canary islands and working on other world sites. Gary is always accessible and easy to work with. We will book with the Right Path every time!

Our family of 4 (with boys aged 15 and 17) had an amazing trip with Gary, Katarina, and Timka. The Dolasilla hotel was a fabulous base of operations in La Villa and really exceeded our expectations. The food was excellent (and abundant) and we really enjoyed the pool and spa, and the staff were so kind and attentive The rooms were very comfortable, with incredible views of the mountains and valley through large windows. All aspects of the room were top-notch, from the bathroom to sheets. But of course, the highlight of the tour was the daily walks with Gary and team. We always started on time and ended when he predicted. His chosen walks gave us a lot of variety and options to challenge ourselves when we wanted. Gary was able to arrange a via ferrata for our family with another guide for an additional modest fee. Gary and team were so attentive to our needs, especially Katarina, and we appreciated their attention to safety, especially with our kids. The meals at the refugios were another highlight. Gary also provided great travel advice for before and after our tour with him. We loved Lake Garda and his recommendations were spot on.

A friend and I wanted to walk the Dolomites but didn't want to plan a refugio to refugio hike. The Right Path Adventure tour worked perfectly for us. We had an amazing trip with Gary, his wife Katarina, and daughter Timka. They were fun and informative guides and made the trip a wonderful experience. The group size is limited so we got to know everyone well. Every day was well-planned and executed. The hikes were fabulous and the accommodations were great. It was nice to come back to the same lovely hotel each night rather than packing and unpacking each day at a new accommodation. I can't recommend this trip strongly enough. Just go!
