Jilotepec Rock Climbing in Peñas de Dexcaní, Mexico
I had the BEST experience climbing with SouthernXposure. My guide Mac was a real pro - decades guiding both in Mexico and around the world. I'm new to rock climbing but it felt natural to trust Mac with my life. Climbing with SouthernXposure Guide Service was the best adventure of my life - highly recommend SouthernXposure to anyone. Thank you for helping me find Sim & Mac! Again soon amigos :)

Jilotepec Rock Climbing in Peñas de Dexcaní, Mexico
What a wonderful guide service! I emailed with Simeon to arrange to climb and he was always prompt with his responses and happy to answer whatever questions I had. My boyfriend and I were guided by Carlos and it was quite an excursion! I felt very confident in Carlos’s climbing/guiding abilities and we both had a really positive experience and would highly recommend SouthernXposure for any of your guiding needs in the area!

Simeon was a pleasure to correspond with - very responsive and helpful. The guided climbing trip was great. Very fun and informative. I now feel comfortable leading and cleaning sport routes. I would definitely recommend SouthernXposure Guides to anyone interested, and I will reach out again for more climbing in Mexico.

Jilotepec Rock Climbing in Peñas de Dexcaní, Mexico
I have climbed with Simeon twice. Once by myself at Bernal and once at Aculco with my family. Both were amazing experiences. I am new to climbing and Simeon has always been patient and eager to teach with a major focus on learning how to climb safely. I highly recommend his guide service!!

Mark is an amazing guide. He was prompt on arrival to our place early am, had a great, fun, upbeat attitude all day, and was completely safe. He timed our day perfectly and gave great beta for the cruxes

Introduction to multi-pitch climbing in El Potrero Chico, near Monterrey, Mexico
Mark always puts big emphasize on developing and refining my own climbing skills rather than just pulling me up the mountain. He always finds the right balance between safety and speed and never sacrifices the fun part while keeping the seriousness of the undertaking in mind. He is a very skillful guide and fun to have around

Jilotepec Rock Climbing in Peñas de Dexcaní, Mexico
On my first trip to Mexico for rock climbing Simeon was gracious in showing us several local climbing destinations within an hour or so from queretaro. Without his help we would have been lost. Simeon is passionate about the sport of rock climbing as well as introducing Mexican culture to individuals visiting from the states His knowledge of both is invaluable

Jilotepec Rock Climbing in Peñas de Dexcaní, Mexico
Definitely the best outdoor company for rock climbing in Mexico! Guided by one of the best guides, with a lot of experience to give! I was climbing with Simeon some days ago in Jilotepec, and in Aculco. He is a great guy, excellent guide, a great person, and a fancy cooker! If you have the opportunity to spend time with SouthernXposure do it!
