Great 1/2 day climbing.

David went well above what was needed to provide an incredible experience for my boys.

It was a great experience climbing with Red River Climbing Guides! We had a ton of fun and very much enjoyed climbing with our guide, Ian. Definitely would recommend!

We’re primarily gym climbers and did a half day Gym to Crag class with Ian. He was a fantastic and laid back instructor who taught us a lot and answered a ton of questions. The approach was pretty easy, the routes were a good match for our outdoor comfort level and the gear focus of the class. We got great tips on how to improve. I would totally go back and would recommend them to anyone. The only thing I wish had been different is that I should have booked a full day. We had a great time!

David was a great guide! We had an awesome time learning how to lead, clean and rappel outside!

Andy was a terrific guide, and the Red River Gorge was beautiful! We will return for sure!

My girlfriend and I had a blast. We'd never climbed, had no gear, and they provide everything needed. It rained, sleeted, and snowed yet we had dry rock. They are knowledgeable and we felt 100% safe. Give it a go, and you'll be amazed what you learn and what you can do.

My boyfriend and I have both been climbing for about 2-3 years and were looking for climbing guides to take us around Red River as we are new to climbing outdoors. We had a fantastic time with Matt and David of “Red River Climbing Guides”. As my boyfriend and I tend to climb at different levels, our guides chose routes for us that we would both be able to climb and find challenging. They both had extensive knowledge of the crags we climbed and the history of the area. On our first day of climbing, Muir valley was very busy with others, and Matt made sure to find us routes that were climbable for our level but also not packed with other people so we would get plenty of time to climb. They both provided help and gave advice when we got stuck in certain areas of the climb that allowed us to finish the route successfully. Safety checks were reinforced prior to and during every climb. Our second day we signed up for lead-climbing and David taught us information regarding how to clean the route properly. We felt that this experience laid the foundation for us for climbing outside and we feel more confident with being able to climb on our own in the future. As a bonus, David gave us some restaurant recommendations for after since we were both starving. We would definitely recommend booking with this company!

David was great. A real pro

Matt, has gone above and beyond teaching me the art climbing. I was able to go from gym to crag to lead climbing! I still have a lot to learn but I’m confident that Matt and his team will get me to the next level with their coaching. Super excited for the next trip to the Red with Red River Climbing Guides!

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

Had the most amazing experience with Red River Climbing Guides. I had a trip planned with a group of 8 others and reached out to a number of guide companies in the area. Matt's professionalism and his ability to cater to our exact needs helped inform my decision. Leading up to our guide day the guides (Ian and David, both phenomenal) made contact and checked in with the needs of our group. It was great that we were able to have two guides for our large group. Day of nothing could have been better. They managed to make everyone happy and satisfied from those who had never climbed outside before to those with lots of experience. Everyone learned lots and the extra knowledge increased the enjoyment for the rest of our trip tenfold. While staying professional and making sure we got the most out of the time the guys were still awesome to have around the whole day and really made it fun. As a group that splurged on this to begin with we had zero hesitation further splurging on a tip for these guys. I could not recommend enough.

We had a great experience with our lead climbing | half day guided session. Andy, our guide, answered our questions effectively and had us practice the skills to ensure we were confident at them. We had prior experience with lead climbing; newer climbers may wish to book a full day, and communicate in advance what you are looking for so the guide can plan for the best experience for all. We communicated our goals in advance and at the beginning of the session, and Andy supported our learning and confidence.

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!

Loved it! Did two days with two guides, and both were incredible (David and Andy). Will be back very soon!

Ian was awesome! Very knowledgeable. Easygoing and helpful. He was clearly well liked by all the climbers we encountered at the crag and it isn't hard to see why.

My friend and I are newer to climbing and were looking for a knowledgeable and experienced guide to help build our skills and confidence - that is exactly with we got with RRCG and Javier. We had a great day top roping routes in Muir Valley and learning the appropriate and safe way to use gear and communicate while climbing.Already looking forward to my next experience with RRCG!

We had never climbed before and Ian was amazing!!! He did a great job coaching us and helping us figure out the moves. We will definitely be back!!!!

Ian was an awesome climbing guide for my 14 year old daughter. He was patient, kind, and had very good communication skills. He put her safety first and encouraged her along the way. We look forward to going back and using Red river Climbing Guides again!

Great Scott! The guides were efficient and knew the crags very well. Our large group had more than enough climb time for each person and they were very accommodating to the large age range.

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!
