Rock Climbing in Mallorca

The traveller did not leave a comment.

The trip itself was an exciting outing, but it was definitely not according to expectations. To start with, the detailed description we got in a document sent to us was not corresponding to the actual trip. It would be better to have correct idea about what's going to happen so the group knows what to look forward to (only DWS and jumping into water from high heights, or the combination of activities like snorkelling and paddling to Punta Galera). It would also be much better to listen to the group's wishes, for instance if someone does not want to jump into the water from the cliffs then she should not be pressed by the guide to do it, it created a lot of discomfort for a person who was already stressed. Safety is another issue - the safe way to approach cliffs from breaking water should definitely be instructed beforehand, because without the timely instructions several of the members got scratches and bruises, and one was feeling very bad. We communicated clearly beforehand that we wanted to try the activity in a safe way, but there was fear and discomfort experienced by some participants. A suggestion would be a direct contact and questions from the actual guide to the group, in good time before meeting up, so expectations and conditions can be figured out - without pressure. Also, there should be clear info about the fact that the trip date can be moved because of waves/weather or other bookings. We got a rebooking 2 times after booking this on short notice, and had to agree to that because we had already paid. To be clear - we have no doubt about the guide's ability to do the actual activity, but it's rather the responsiveness and handling of different needs that was the issue for this group.

Great

Super climb

I climbed for three days with Mon d'Aventura - climbing with Juan and Javi. Everything was well organized, the guides were excellent and focused on finding good quality climbing and ensuring that my climbing days were fun. I thoroughly enjoyed my time out and look forward to returning and climbing with Mon d'Aventura again.

I went climbing with Carlos for 2 days in Montserrat and Pared de les Baggases. Carlos was not only a very skilled rock climbing guide (route finding, safety, etc) but as also very pleasant and social to be with (he speaks very good English). He took his time to also talk about the surroundings and history of the climbs we made. I highly recommend to go climbing with Carlos!
