The climbing session was great. Sam did a really fantastic job of supporting me, my wife and my daughter. We were all at different levels, and he catered for that really well. It was a really supportive session which meant we all got the most from it. He was encouraging without putting pressure on anyone to go further than they were comfortable. I'd definitely do this again.
