What people are saying about Joāo Magalhāes

Kate

We had an excellent family (two adults, two kids aged 11 and 9 years) rock climbing trip with Joāo. While our kids had done some indoor climbing, they had not climbed outdoors before. Joāo instilled an enormous amount of confidence in the kids (and myself!) to make it up the rockface, using different strategies and a huge amount of patience. We had an amazing experience in a beautiful setting by the ocean. The time flew by. Thank you, Joāo!

Steve

A great day sport climbing with João. A great coastal location and great route selection from João to my ability. Many thanks.

Yun

The guide is nice, set various routes from different levels, and the view is so beautiful.

Joao, was a warm, gracious and exceptional guide/host/Portugal ambassador. Joao, guided my wife and I on a morning Bouldering trip through the magical forests of Sintra. Despite less than perfect conditions, Joao, expertly found us dry and fun boulders to try and top!!! An extremely easy person to chat with, he also guided us through some history of the Sintra area, and is an avid arborist and kept our morning full of fun Portuguese flora facts. We would recommend Joao to anyone who asks about rock climbing guides in the greater Lisbon area. Thank you again Joao, and hopefully see you again!

Could not recommend this rock climbing experience more. Joao was a great guide. He has so much knowledge, experience and a real passion for what he does. We had fun, I learned new things and challenged myself. I would not hesitate to choose Joao again next time I'm in Portugal
