My husband and I did a mountain climbing tour w Alex and it was nothing short of AMAZING. He made sure we had plenty of snacks and water and met us at our hotel before doing the drive to the wall. On the way he gave us a walkie-talkie so that he could fill us in on all of the cool spots we were passing! Alex is super culturally aligned, really friendly and sooooo knowledgeable. We also felt really safe. We learned so much just within these few hours together. We can’t wait to do it again next time we’re in Ojai. HIGHLY recommend this experience!!!!!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. First of all, thank you Alex, that was a badass surreal experience. To anyone thinking of hiring a rock climbing guide, Alex is your man. He took our group out to a trail in Montecito where he casually free soloed this rock wall to get our ropes up on the wall to make it safe for us. Bear in mind this is my absolute first time legit rock climbing. He made sure it was safe and I got up each wall first try (no easy task) because of his excellent advice. I had a ton of fun but also overcame real adversity, getting up the last wall was a true challenge. Once you get up and take in the view, you’ll really feel alive. Alex brought us delicious sandwiches for lunch and made it a most welcoming experience. I will definitely do this again and have Alex be my rock climbing guide again at other locations.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex was simply amazing. He made this experience so wholesome and calming. He helped me be confident in my moves and to complete the climbs. If it weren’t for his guidance, I probably wouldn’t have made it to the top. I will for sure be back. Thank you so much Alex!!Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We went on a family rock climbing outing in the San Ynez mountains with Alex and had a wonderful time. Not only did he show us an amazing spot to climb (right over a running creek), but also instructed us on proper technique, how to be safe, but also the right mindset to cultivate a deeper appreciation and enjoyment for the sport. We definitely are thinking of future outings with him the next time we're in SoCal again.Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex was a GREAT guide for us. He was patient with our youngest, while providing great instruction and challenged our girls and gave great instruction on them working/climbing safely together. We've got some new challenges for the next time we are in Ojai! He is super personable and made hanging out for the day easy. Alex is truly passionate about his craft and the Ojai area, and it helped make our experience memorable.
