Alex was an excellent guide that was very knowledgeable and helpful! We would definitely recommend him and this experience! His was able to help guide us and was patient as it was our first time climbing!

Very professional guiding service and the patience to assist beginners in becoming safer and better climbers!!!Hope this helps!

Our guide Simon was awesome! He made it such a chill and laid back first climbing experience for us.

My son and I wanted to start sport climbing outside, after previously top roping outside and taking a lead climbing class at the gym. After just a few hours with Simon we felt confident enough to sport climb some easy routes on our own the next day. We then spent a full day with Alex sport climbing some super fun routes, and he even set up some top ropes for us so we wouldn't get worn out too quickly since it was only two of us climbing and we had a full day booked. My son was thrilled to learn about trad gear since one of the top rope routes was mixed. After spending two days with Red River Climbing Guides we both feel confident in our ability to safely sport climb, lead belay, and clean routes.

We had a wonderful time with Alex climbing in the Red River Gorge this past weekend. Alex was very knowledgeable and professional about every aspect of rock climbing and our 9-year-old daughter had a blast climbing outdoors with him. We would highly recommend Alex and would climb with him again.

First time outdoor rock climbing and it was incredible! Alex was super knowledge, helpful, and reassuring. My partner and I went with a wide experience gap and he was able to accommodate both of us and help us get the most out of our trip. I would highly recommend the guided top rope climb for beginners and I plan on going back for more advanced guided climbs in the future. Thanks for an awesome time!

these guys do a great job. Can't wait to go back for more.

Matt was extremely patient with our group of new to climbing, but aspiring adventurers! Highly recommend!!!

We had an amazing half day rapelling with Ian. This was our first time repelling. My husband and 2 daughters have done indoor climbs before. I had zero experience. He was very knowledgeable and made us feel safe. He was a great teacher. I would highly recommend Ian. Can't wait to come back and learn so much more from Ian. See you soon!!

Had a great time for my first outdoor Clinton, the guide was amazing and the routes we climbed were a lot of fun.

Ian was great, as a complete newbie I was super intimidated but he met me where I was at and showed me the ropes. It was a great experience and now I’m motivated to get stronger to come back and do more.

Ben was our guide, and he was extremely informative. He is an amazing climber and helped us feel very accomplished on our first time climbing outside of a gym! He was great at answering all of our questions! We had a great time and will definitely be back!

This was our first time climbing outdoors and we had a blast! David was an awesome guide and had answers to all of our questions, he was especially good at making sure we had hands on experience before moving to the actual wall. I felt safe the whole time and learned much much more than I was expecting to, thanks for the great experience!

We both have bouldered and climbed at indoor gyms, but wanted an introduction to outdoor rock climbing. Alex our guide was knowledgeable, personable, and prioritized safety and customized our day according to our different goals and skill levels. We did a full day to start and enjoyed it so much that we booked another half-day. We learned a lot about rock climbing culture, the area, and have a new enthusiasm for outdoor sport climbing! Thank you Alex for awakening a love for the Red River Gorge and the sport!!!

Had a great day climbing with Matt and Leor. Will definitely be back 🙂

Beyond awesome!!!! My 7 year old daughter and I had no idea what we were doing, had never been climbing before and had an amazing experience. Our instructor David had the best approach to every situation for both children and adults. He was very knowledgeable, patient and encouraging…also kept us laughing. The owner Matt gave me all the information I wanted before I booked so I felt safe considering it was a new adventure for just myself and my daughter. We loved it so much and we’ll definitely be back!

Had a great experience! Andy was very kind and helpful. He was also very good with my young daughter who didn’t climb but was just hanging out with all of us. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone. Also, thanks Andy for making me feel like a rockstar climber even though I’m just a beginner. Great company

Amazing 🧗‍♀️ experience. We had an absolute blast. Simon was knowledgeable and encouraging. He was so good to help everyone in our party of 7 learn to belay.

Had a great time with Matt, he was a great guide and made our experience exactly what we were looking for. Will definitely be back

Omg can not express enough how awesome of a time I had on my half-day climb. I've only been top rope climbing once before and was a bit nervous doing it again, but had an absolute blast. Matt was an excellent guide and was very good with basic training and helpful tips on the routes. Our crag was in a BEAUTIFUL, secluded location (drive up was worth it alone) so it felt like I was going to a "locals only" place. What an excellent way to end my trip at the RRG.

Great experience for learning the sport or just for enjoying it! And well suited to any level.

I’ve climbed with Red River Climbing Guides several times. I always felt very safe with the professional staff. As a beginner climber the Red was intimidating. Matt put my mind at ease and also taught invaluable skills to move me forward. Later on I did the training program and I can definitely tell a difference in my climbing. I had plateaued but after just about 6 weeks doing the training I’m able to climb at a higher grade! Highly recommend!!

Our guide, Andy, was great. Learned a lot and had fun

Alex was great and had great knowledge of the area! He found the perfect balance of a challenge and enjoyment! Would absolutely come back to enjoy more of the Muir Valley!

Matt was an attentive, encouraging and fun guide for our group of beginners. He has so much experience and helped us all feel confident and safe the whole time. I absolutely recommend booking with Red River Climbing Guides if you’re in the area and looking for some adventure!

Highly recommend Red River Climbing Guides! This was our first experience with any climbing, including indoor. Ben was fantastic!! Very knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything to us and make sure we were comfortable- even if that meant multiple times. He was very patient and encouraging! We really enjoyed our day and had such a great time. We will definitely be back!
