My family of 3 went on the day hike with Michael. He is very experienced and knows the area well. We are not super experienced hikers, but Michael went at our pace. At no point did Michael show that he was put out because we did not hike at his level. He sent us an email as soon as we booked the hike telling us what to expect and what to bring. We listened and Michael was spot on. The day before the hike he sent another email telling us what the weather was going to be and how we should be prepared. I strongly recommend booking this hike. I do recommend a little hiking experience because the trail is a little steep at times. I cannot say enough how wonderful Michael was. I would book another hike with him tomorrow if I could.

Our family had a great time on this hike. It was a nice change of pace from Vienna and we really enjoyed going through the castles. Even though we had a little bit of rain at the beginning of the trip the views were great and the ruins were lovely. Michael was great about pacing the trip so that we could all keep up and he was patient with our minimal hiking experience. He also took lots of pictures for us which he sent to us after we got home. They were great! He was very prompt and texted us about the meeting point and exactly what type of car we were looking for at the train station. Great experience!
