This was so much fun. I was really scared to do it, but Wolfgang really made me feel at ease. He was so friendly. The views were amazing. So glad I did this.
I did the classic course near Salzburg. Was a little difficult to get the bus up the mountain, but I arrived on time. Everyone was really nice and fun. I'd recommend it.
