My partner and I spent a day in Cinque Torri climbing with Benny, one of Renato's guides. She was absolutely excellent, extremely professional and we both felt very safe with her - she spent most of her life climbing. When we booked, we expected just some single-pitch climbs and one multi-pitch, so we were thrilled to find out that we'd be climbing Torre Grande, the 100m+, 5-pitch tallest tower in the area. It was spectacular. We normally climb up to about 6a/6b indoors, so we found parts of it challenging, other parts easy, but the experience was incredible. At the end Benny lowered us from the top of the tower back to safety. The views were excellent all around. The day lasted from 9am to 5pm and there's a great refuge just 10min walk from Cinque Torri with awesome views of the surrounding mountain range and lovely hot chocolate to finish the day. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to try out climbing in the Dolomites.

Renato was not available, but he connected us with Andrea, a certified guide from his alpine school. Andrea was extremely friendly, flexible, and easy to communicate with before the trip. We met him at the chair lift for Cinque Torri, and he led my 13-year-old daughter and my husband on their first multi-pitch climbing route (and repel). He took his time to assess their skills, ensure they understood all of the safety precautions, answered all of their questions, and verified their comfort level. Andrea was a patient and knowledgable guide, and also very engaging - even with me and my 11-year-old son who stayed on the ground. He went above and beyond, taking the time to join us for lunch at the rifugio. This experience was the highlight of our time in the Dolomites, and I would strongly recommend Andrea.

Explore Share is really a fantastic platform. I'm a first-time user and I was very happy with my experience. It was helpful to chat with Renato briefly before completing my booking so that we could narrow down the right dates. Renato personally was a fantastic guide with unmatched experience. I'll definitely be using this service again.

My Guide Robert Cecco WAS AMAZING! I would highly recommend

Etienne was great.

This was a good trip. I joined with my 7y/o daughter who has no climbing experience. She had a good time. Although I am not sure how to change this, from my personal perspective, the trip would have been even better if there would also be a bigger challenge for adults.

I went to Campanile Basso di Brenta with Marika. Awesome, nothing less, experienced, kind, calm and female gentleness.

I couldn't recommend a climbing guide more highly. Marika is energic, friendly and gave us just what we were looking for, moderate multi-pitch climbing in beautiful settings in the Dolomites, followed each day by the best restaurants and bars. She knows everything about climbing, the routes and as a local, the history of the region. She was also meticulous with safety and kept us in line where needed. Marika met all of our expectations and more. You won't be disappointed when you climb with her.

Excellent experience. Customized to my needs. Very safe. Successful climb. Thanks!

Giovanni was an exceptionally wonderful guide! Our family spent the day with him climbing in Cinque Torri. He was incredibly patient with our children, and was able to find routes that we all enjoyed climbing. We loved every minute of the day and would recommend this trip to any family interested in doing some sport climbing near Cortina/Cinque Torri.

Etienne was an excellent rock climbing guide and also thoroughly enjoyable company throughout our climb. We climbed Dibona Arete on Cime Grande together. A wonderful climb, although for me some challenging moves which I only completed because Etienne was taking great care of belaying me. I've no hesitation in recommending Etienne. Very well organised by explore-share.com too.

Etienne is a very experience local guide who knows the area very well. He guided my boyfriend and I for 2 days. The first day, we went on a 13 multi-pitch climb up Tre Cime di Lavaredo and Etienne guided us up the mountain efficiently and safely while also taking time to explain to us some basic mountaineering concepts and our surrounding mountains. We started at 7am and was rappeling down by 3pm as he had originally estimated. The 2nd day was a more casual single pitch sport day where Etienne gave us some private instructions on how to efficiently climb outside using more legs and less arms. We are very happy with the service Etienne provided, he had great communication skills and spoke great english. We would consider him for future guided trips in the area again.

Climbing in the Dolomites with Etienne was absolutely a highlight of our trip. He was an excellent guide, knowledgeable, safe, and a pleasure to spend a day with. Communication leading up to the trip was easy and responsive, and I felt I could ask him any of my numerous questions. Our climb at the Sella Towers was the perfect choice for our first multi-pitch and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide.

Excellent guide and climbing.

My brother and I did our first multi pitch climbs with Etienne in the valley near Arco. We had a great time on the rocks, we always felt secured and learned a lot too. Etienne knows the area very well and picked a pitch with a great view. Would recommend to any beginner climbers who want to challenge themselves.

We came to do 1 day climbing for beginners, ended exceeding expectations with the BEST advavature we ever add. The guide was super comb and professional. We just wait for the next time...

Its important to look at reviews of each guide to choose the best experience. Look no further. Etienne Bernard is flexible, safe, personable, proactive, and HIGHLY experienced. Although it was snowy and frigid, Etienne helped me persevere up the a 600' climb. He was very encouraging, I never felt unsafe, and I fully recommend his guiding services. I hope everyone looking to climb, ski, or hike in the Dolomites, Italy is able to having Etienne as their guide.

Marika is an amazing guide and a really nice person! we had a great time. She was not pushy but helped us to overcome our inner barriers and complete more that we expected. as a trainer Marika is absolutely professional and very passionate and open to share her knowledge, experience and love to the climbing. I really hope we will come back to works with her soon, since it was unforgettable

We had a great experience with Mr.Enrico Geremia for our via ferrata trip up Marmolada. Enrico was a friendly guide and did not compromise with any of the safety equipment. We felt secure all the while with Enrico. We would certainly recommend our friends who have plans to hike the Dolomites in the future to use this platform :)

Etienne was a fantastic guide! He suggested doing a multipitch tour of the Sella towers after I contacted exploreshare with a description of my experience, this was a great way for me to check out a bit of the Dolomites and a first taste of multipitch with the limited time I had available. Very friendly and knowledgeable, and went out of his way to help me get to and from the Val Di Fassa. Thanks again, and hope to return in the future!

My son and I were planning a trip to climb in Arvo, Italy and wanted a good start to our trip so we booked a guide with Explore-share.com, and it was the best thing we did. Lupe and the staff handled every inquire we had, were really professional then ended up hooking us up with MMove based in Arco. We booked a private guide for 3 days of rock climbing and we boosted our grades in those days. Our guide Matteo was bloody awesome, amazing guide who just gets that little bit more out of your. Our grades jumped thanks to Matteo. Day 1 was sport climbing to check what we could do, single pitches and going hard. The afternoon was a multi pitch. Then for day 2 and 3 we pumped out multi pitch after multi pitch. Best 3 days of climbing in a long time. My Son went from grade 15/16 to leading 23's. This 3 days started our trip and gave us the confidence to go on climbing for another 2 weeks. Thanks guys for an amazing wicked time We will be back soon

Last days of August 2018. As for more than 10 years I have left Valtellina for a week of climbing in the Dolomites. Our historical, affectionate and appreciated mountain guide Marika. On August 23, 2018, at the suggestion of Marika herself, we let ourselves be guided to the conquest of the "Campanile di Val Montanaia", a spectacular and wild spire. Beautiful ascension, in absolute safety and plaisir. Thanks "great" Marika. Battista.

Enrico is a great guide and the climbing is amazing. Highly recommended.

The day was great, we felt safe, Stefano was responsive to our request, our pace, etc. The only thing that could have been improved was the communication before getting to Italy. I had a hard time deciding on what was appropriate for the level of our group, gauge how long and how hard the different options were with the limited info that was given to me.

Everything was perfect and Marija extraordinary. I would repeat!

Super chill guy. Had a great time. Laughed and learned a lot.

Brilliant trip with my 14 year old son. Etienne knew the area thoroughly, chose challenging but fun routes, kept us safe at all times and made the whole trip a fantastic experience.

Enrico is a great guide!

Enrico was a great guide. He gave us some history of the mountain while climbing and took photos for us while hiking up to Punta Penia. Very professional and helpful guide!
