EXCELLENT Based on 177 reviews Hamilton HauderTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Went on Jacob’s ladder with Justin and he met me with an epic day!! His safety mindset is top notch along with his ability to explain everything you’ll be doing and what todo. Thanks!! Paul ConnerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Bumped into Justin when he’d just topped out on Jacobs Ladder with a fellow Kiwi on top of Table Mountain. A quick chat and I was convinced to use my last day in the Cape to climb the route myself. Justin has a way of engaging with people that automatically makes them feel very relaxed and like you’ve known him for ever. While doing that he has a fully professionally focus which adds to the experience. Jacob’s ladder has been on my radar for 30+ years and did not disappoint. Don’t think twice. Get a hold of him for a great day out. Mariana SacramentoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Justin is an experienced climbing guide! I had a lot of fun and felt very safe climbing with him as a solo woman! For sure Im gonna climb again with him!! Justin HaglerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've worked with several climbing guides in multiple countries, and Justin of Cape Town Climbing and Hiking stands tall above the rest. We hired him to take us out for a day of sport cragging, and he was able to quickly assess our skill level and then put us on some awesome routes to push our grade. Many other guides get skittish about putting clients on lead- awesomely, Justin encouraged it and I pushed my lead grade significantly as a result! I really appreciated his coaching style approach to our day and he was a lot of fun to hang out with as well. Highly recommend him for any climbers or people who want to try climbing who are in Cape Town. lászló mangliárTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was the best! Justin was really good in planning the best route for me yesterday. First time trad climbing, he made sure that I get everything right. We climbed the Africa Crag - a relaxed route with beautiful views, and black eagles. :) Absolutely recommended! Ricardo MatacheTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Spent a glorious day climbing with Justin on Table Mountain. Couldn't ask for a better guide to this incredible climbing location so close to town. Justin quickly assessed my climbing level with an intro climb and we did three trad multipitches in the day. Very safe and fast. Supreme fun.
