It was an amazing experience. 💖
I would definitely recommend this, if climbing is something you like to do. 🤗
First, we drove to the location, and from there we hiked up the mountain. Once at the top, the kids did Via Ferrata, abseiling, and climbing routes 1, 2, 3 and The Sugar Cane. 🙏🏿
The guides were excellent at what they do, very kind, patient, helpful, and thoughtful. It was as safe as safe can be. 😉
The bathroom is very clean and love the Spiderman themed wallpaper. 😉
All in all 10 out of 10. Thank you very much for a great experience. 🙏🏿

Loved our experience! We’ve done via ferratas before in Europe but never went Rock climbing. We did half day climb and via ferrata with Sebastian, who was quite possibly the best guide we’ve ever had for any kind of physical activity. He was super motivational and patient towards us and we loved the experience!

What a wonderful time climbing. So good I booked their Via ferrata with my dad (who had never been climbing but loved it!) :)
Family owned business and wonderful climbing. Good instruction if you want it, graded climbs for both novice, beginner, and seasoned climbers.
They also have guided hikes with amazing views of the island and the sea. The people who own it are also so sweet!

Absolutely amazing experience! Jaime was thoughtful and patient and made sure we had the best routes for our experience level and ensured we were safe the entire time. We did the 1/2 with abseiling and that was amazing. The repelling was perfect and a great way to end the adventurous day. Great cruise excursion as they picked us up from the port without issues and cheaper than a taxi would have been. 2 adults and 2 teens - great time for everyone!
