    My wife and I went multi pitching. Despite the bad weather we were fortunate to be in touch with Loz who is flexible and super nice. Beginners, don't be afraid, Loz made us confident in our abilities. We definitely got type 1 and type 2 fun :)

    My wife and I had a great time booking with Basecamp Adventures! We first booked a mountaineering track, and had such a great time that we ended up booking a rock climbing session later in our trip! Our guide, Stevo, was awesome! Super knowledgeable and enjoyable to be around. He didn’t just guide, but he elevated our experience and made it one to remember. They tours we booked are definitely the type of thing that defined our trip and created lasting memories for my wife and I. Additionally, on the practical side, they had great communication and were easy to book with. I cannot recommend them enough!

    This was an awesome experience. I’m just getting into rock climbing, and my guide (Issac is what I think is name was, but I’m not good with names) was very supportive in trying to find routes that were not too easy for me to climb, but also not impossible. The whole experience was done very well; all the gear was included and was in good shape, the guide was easygoing and personable, they made sure you knew what was going on, and also helped out with spotting holds when things got difficult. There was also no waiting around, I arrived and they got right to getting my kit sized and out to the rock face. Issac also gave tips on how to get into the sport and gain more experience in the future. Not to mention that the views are pretty amazing and the area around Wanaka is one of the most scenic in NZ. I would just like note that this is real rock climbing, so it is a pretty physical endeavor. While the guides do have ways of making it a lot easier on newcomers, like myself, there is a limit and one should be in reasonably good shape before trying this. Definitely recommend and will likely do this again if I end up back in the area.
