The best decision we’ve made for a while, five days of Via Ferrata in lovely Andorra. Dave was our guide for the trip and had arranged very good accommodation in Canillo with good food and wonderful weather. Recommended no matter what your standard as there are routes of varying grades and Dave can cope with tigers or mice. We hope to return again someday.

truly amazing
