Helping You Explore South Tyrol & the Dolomites

Our Favorite Travel Resources

If you plan to book your South Tyrol trip by yourself, here are our go-to travel resources. After exploring the region for a decade, these are the tried and tested platforms and tools we use to find the best deals and travel stress-free. ✅

Best Accommodation Resources

When possible, we book accommodations through a provider vs. directly with the hotel. If you need to cancel or make changes to a reservation, it is much easier. Plus, by using a booking platform you can earn loyalty discounts and rewards points not available with most hotels.

Booking.com is our top choice for finding the best prices at virtually every hotel and resort in South Tyrol. On top of that, their mapping and filter tool makes it super easy to find the ideally-located accommodation matched with our preferred amenities and services. ⇒  SEARCH

Vrbo has a wonderful selection of holiday rentals in South Tyrol including mountain farm stays. They have the lowest service fees in the property rental industry and provide a wide range of accommodations for every budget. ⇒  SEARCH

Rental Car Resources

South Tyrol has an excellent public transit system, but if you want to freely explore the region we recommend renting a car. Our trip planning guide details everything you need to drive in Italy safely and confidently.

We have great luck finding the best car rental deals on Discover Cars.  As an aggregator site, they do the hard work for you and find the most affordable choices. In addition, they offer free cancellation and provide 24-hour assistance in English. We also like to check Auto Europe  if we cannot find the car we want on Discover Cars.  ⇒  SEARCH

Travel Insurance Resources

Yonder Travel Insurance
Our Favorite Travel Resources 5

Travel insurance is the most important item to purchase before traveling to Italy. You never know what can happen while traveling abroad. And most health insurance plans don’t cover international travel. Purchasing the right travel insurance plan upfront covers injuries, illnesses as well as accidents and trip cancellations that may occur.

For only a few dollars a day, it is well worth the expense. To compare the best trip insurance plans, we use Yonder and Travel Insurance Master. Both are fast, convenient, and offer a variety of plans so you can find the right policy for your trip.
