Sport Climbing near Cusco - We had planned a family rock climbing experience during our stay in Cusco and we had a great day at Salkantay Mountain, about 30 minutes away. (Not to be confused with Salkantay Trekking). Urbano was our guide, he is very knowledgeable and concerned for our safety. The gear was like new and in great shape (worth mentioning due to the safety associated with it) . As a travel advisor I would highly recommend this activity for my clients looking for something different and more adventurous. Precious experience is not required as your guide will go over a safety briefing before the climb, but recommended so you know what to expect.

Incredible views - Great adventure. Very professional and knowledgeable instructor, beautiful equipment, and the rock itself was very nice, with multiple routes and even a propelling system. We met a very friendly dog who lived on the property, but besides that it was relatively quiet. Would totally do this again.

Great half day excursion outside of Cusco - We (me, 8-year old and 12-year old) went for a half day trip with Urbano to a crag about 30 minutes outside of Cusco. We wanted to get out of the city for a bit and do something active. We had a blast! It was the kids' first time climbing outside and they loved it. The gear was in good shape and we stuck to easy routes that everyone could do. They even managed to find kids' sized shoes. We finished off with a rappel off of the cliff. It was a great day. Urbano was super flexible and good with the kids and he spoke really good English. All around a great outing!

Epic intro to rock climbing! - First time rock climbing and our guide Urban was awesome! He made us feel safe on the climb and had good safety briefing before we started and the crack we went to was perfect for an intro to rock climbing. The view from the place was great, the included lunch was nice, also for us vegetarians.
We unfortunately had some rain at the end, but Urban did everything to let us climb as much as possible.
Can defenitely recommend this tour!

Sport climbing adventure in Peru - We are boulderers who had never sport climbed before due to unavailability at our location, so we were thrilled to finally have a chance. Our mountain guide, Vinerson, was so chill, knowledgeable , and extremely patient. We learned so much and climbed some gorgeous routes, and had a total blast. We learned a lot about proper technique and safety, and he even taught us to lead and safely clean the top rope anchors and quick draws. Thanks again, Vinerson, hope to see you again soon!!

Top rope, lead climbing and rappelling close to Cusco - Nice day getting to know the Cusco area limestone. We were able to agree the trip on the evening before with a very short notice. Urbano was very good in taking our previous skills into account while planning the climbing routes and activities. Safety was handled very well and the climbing gear was in good condition. Beautiful crag with nice routes!

A safe and fulfilling day of climbing - We had a great day of climbing with Vidal. He has extensive knowledge of the history of (climbing in) Peru, climbing safety and the Cusco area. Vidal has a positive attitude and his climbing expertise and encouragement helped us up some difficult climbing routes.
Highly recommend adventuring with Vidal! You will learn, laugh and find yourself fulfilled.

Vidal picked us up, drove us to the location, had a safety orientation before climbing, climbed ate lunch and returned - Top notch experience! Vidal was very friendly, knowledgeable, safety oriented, fun and funny! A wealth of knowledge of the community as well. If you get the chance, try it out! Easy to understand his English. We rented gear that was in good condition. He allowed lead climbing if you had the experience as well as lead belaying. All in all, awesome experience! Definitely recommend and also would definitely do again! Thank Vidal!
