Booked half day Via Ferrata - it turned out to be 1.5 hours via Ferrata and 1.5 hours travelling. Was disappointed with the amount of time actually doing the activity

Explore-share service was just what we needed. Hooking us up with a qualified guide that knows the area is invaluable when you are traveling out of country. I will use your service again!

We had asked for many changes to make my trip work, but Antionio had been excellent in accommodating us. He is very kind. The trip is very demanding to me as a first-timer, but it is the best breakthrough I like. We did it non-stop within 3 hours. I recommend taking the pace and allow for break time, say 4 hours. I recommend it to all if you like a challenge.
