Pauline

Very experienced climber and he gave us exactly what we asked for ! He was also encouraging !

Eugene

Luis was fantastic. He offered great options and we did two different areas over 2 days. I was injured so had to limit my climbing but my partner was able to have an amazing time. Luis was a great guide and we'd happily climb with him again A bit frustrated that the platform didn't give an option to cancel on short notice despite an injury / medical note but Luis helped make the most of the two days

Thomas

It was amazing climbing with Luis! He was great at communicating where to meet and very knowledgeable about the climbing areas and climbing community. Luis is patient and was very adept at sizing up our abilities so that we had a great time. If we come back to Portugal I will definitely call Luis and recommend him to anyone who talks about coming to Portugal to climb.

Zsófia

I highly recommend Luís as your guide for a rock climbing adventour. He chose a really scenic place for us, and created a really good & calm atmosphere where you felt safe and confident enough to challenge yourself. He gave just the right amount of information and he encouraged us well. Thank you again! :)

Vanessa

Luis from Vertitec was an amazing, experienced and trustworthy guide! He led me to some perfect climbing spots, where we were all by ourselves. The grades were perfectly fitted (around 6a) and i felt always safe. The organisation was very easy and i would definitely doing it again! Muito obrigado outra vez por tudo Luís! Sinceros cumprimentos Vanessa
