My husband and I had a wonderful time with Etienne. Not only did we have a lot of fun but he also made sure that we completed the via ferrata safely. Highly recommend!
I'm writing this several days after I finished my via ferrata trip, and I can honestly say I haven't stopped thinking about how great of a trip it was. Working with Explore-Share was efficient and made the process quite easy. The trip I ended up doing was in Val di Fassa / the Rosengarten group, and I have to say the places I saw ticked all the boxes of an amazing Dolomites experience. Gorgeous meadows, wildflowers, stunning peaks, verdant valleys, perfect trails, wildlife too. And honestly, the element that brought all this together and allowed me to get the most out of the experience was my guide, Etienne Bernard. Etienne is a true professional. He listened to my wants and the planned and executed everything smoothly. Without Etienne, I would not have experienced 1/2 of the joy I did in the mountains. With Etienne at the helm, I was able to confidently focus on the scenery and hiking and climbing to maximize my enjoyment. With a smart and experienced guide like Etienne, I was able to push myself way beyond what I would have done without him. I highly recommend a via Ferrata trip in the Dolomites, and I highly recommend you request Etienne Bernard to guide you. You will be like me, savoring the memories of your time in the Dolomites!

We had a blast, 3 trips in 2 days with Etienne. He took good care of us, we had many laughs during the via ferrata and at rifugio Lagazoi. Also, we never felt any rush, Etienne took good time with us. The Norwegians give Etienne the best recommendationsđđđ
