Siurana and Margalef climbing camp (5 days)

Our time with Marc in Margalef was sensational. We had specific goals for our trip and he worked hard to understand and make them happen, drawing on his experience, local knowledge and his network. He was patient & worked hard throughout our time together to make our experience far exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend!

Carlos was absolutely amazing. I had brought the experience for my partner for Christmas as he loves indoor rock climbing and he wanted to try outdoor for the first time. Carlos made the day so special for him, letting him lead the way and choose what he wanted to do/how much he wanted to do. Couldn’t fault him from start to finish, I’m just jealous I didn’t get to experience it myself! If we could give him more than 5*’s, we would. Highly HIGHLY recommend. Thanks so much Carlos!

Spending the day with Carlos was great! he's a great climbing coach and a super nice guy. He taught us a ton of tricks and we reviewed all the safety infos, but little by little he gave us more and more freedom, which also gave us the confidence we needed. All in all it was a great experince.

Had a great day climbing with Carlos. He's knowledgeable about, and devoted to, the sport. I only had a single day during my trip to Spain to climb and was looking to get on some of the best sport routes in the area - and Carlos did not disappoint. As a guide he was skilled and safe, ensuring that we had a shared understanding of the safety systems. As a climbing partner he was insightful in recommending routes, providing beta, and the softest of catches. We chatted the whole time about the sport and the industry and the various features of routes. Highly recommend Carlos as a climbing guide if you're in the Barcelona area and I will definitely look him up again next time I'm in Spain without a belay.

Carlos was an excellent guide. He communicated well and we learned a lot about Spanish history and culture from him. He took us to an awesome location so that I could propose to my partner!

Margalef and Siurana open days rock climbing tour

Carlos is awesome! He was extremely responsive after booking and tailored a trip to fit our level and interests. He helped us manage logistics (places to stay, where to meet), and was prompt each day picking us up. Carlos knows the area and guided us to gorgeous routes at our level. This area has legendary sport climbing, which we only had limited gym experience with. Carlos led at first, but taught us to lead by the end! He also took & shared great photos of the trip! Highly recommended!

It was an awesome trip and a good first exposure to climbing in Spain! For some in our group, it was their first time to climb outdoors and Carlos provided great advice for transitioning from indoor to outdoor climbing. For me, I got a lot of useful tips on how to be more effective and to improve my technique outdoors. I would recommend Carlos to anyone looking for a great guide and a fun time out on the rocks!

Carlos is an excellent climbing instructor. Not only he has amazing climbing skills but he may be the best belayer in the world;)). He is also a great teacher, very knowledgeable, adapts to different skill levels, puts extra homework into finding routes and activities that are challenging yet enjoyable. There were two of us, with different skill levels and he managed to set up activities in a way that we have got the most of every minute. regarding the commucation: he was very quick to respond, was inquiring about what we want to get out of the trip and based.on this recommended the agenda. A very lovely guy overall. After a bit of quizzing I've learned that he climbed with some big names from Spain and UK. Oh, and he has a great crag dog - as him to bring her along:)

Carlos is the best mountain guide around. He was obviously very experienced and has been climbing for many years. I like how we were constantly learning under his supervision. He was also flexible in every way. I, as a pretty beginner climber, was able to enjoy the routes he took us on just as much as my friend, an intermediate climber. He was knowledgeable of the area and knew all the best climbing spots. 11/10 would recommend!
