EXCELLENT Based on 143 reviews Kelsey JonveaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the absolute best day climbing. It’s been several years since the last time I have climbed outside and in a gym. I told Justin I was ready to finally try my first lead climb. And he was awesome at explaining everything, and I felt really good where I was at today considering the very long break. Gave me some excellent advice to continue with my strength development to improve and I genuinely appreciate it. Would definitely recommend and looking forward to another climb in the future. Thank you! 🙏🏻 Peter GrahamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Really professional setup, had a great time on the mountain. Justin clearly knows what he’s doing and thought through all the details. Mazli MehrTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Justin is awesome! Took two of my friends and I on a multi-pitch yesterday. He’s a great climber, knows what he’s doing, and walked us through it all with patience and humor! Malte MühlbachTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We really, really enjoyed the climbing with Justin. At the beginning, he asked about our previous experience and then chose a route together with us. He had a great sense of how far he could go with us, and we felt completely safe with him at all times. All in all, it was a truly good experience that I would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys adventure. Jacob SchonbergTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Mimi PierceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did my first multipitch, trad climb on Table Mountain with Justin and it was fantastic! I was a bit nervous but Justin’s approach really put me at ease. He is knowledgeable, experienced and has a great sense of humour. Climbing is putting your safety partly in someone else’s hands, and I would trust Justin’s hands any day. Honestly an experience I will never forget. Highly recommend! Sep de BaanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Perfect day and very professional guide!! Made quite the fall, so very happy that he was there with me. He stayed very calm and was very supportive! Beautiful day and recommendation for anyone! JulienTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I did half day Outdoor Climbing! It was my first time outdoors and my instructor Megan did such a great job by introducing and teaching me on this great experience. As the table mountain cablecar was closed during heavy winds, she quickly adjust the plan and we had a great time climbing Lions head without wind and with some shadow! Also the routing grade was nicely choosed as I hoped for some challenge as well. Not to heavy for the first time but not to easy as well :) Thanks Megan and also Justin from Cape Town Rock Climbing for the great experience! Minna ManninenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Two wonderful days climbing on Table mountain with Justin! As an experienced climber, I hoped to get straight to the good stuff, and that for sure happened. All routes we climbed were of excellent quality, including cool steep and exposed moves, great ambience and overall very enjoyable sense of adventure. Justin is a very professional and well-organised guide with clear communication, attention to detail and good humour. Daniel RuizTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Justin and his company in South Africa are truly professional. We rock climbed two iconic and incredible routes safely and efficiently. If you're thinking of rock climbing in the Cape Town region, don't hesitate to contact Justin.
