Rock Climbing with a Guide in Chania Therisos Gorge

Our instructor was called George. He spoke perfect English and was kind enough to collect us from our hotel and drop us off when we had finished. His experience of climbing was clear to see, the previous reviews on here are totally justified. The entire experience was fantastic, equipment supplied, views of the gorge while climbing were amazing. It was myself (39yr male) and my 11yr old daughter who climbed. We both have some experience but George started us on a fairly simple climb to see how we got on and we progressed to harder climbs throughout the afternoon/evening. In total I climbed 7 routes and my daughter climbed 8. The experience was 100% worth the cost, if we ever go back to Crete I will definitely contact George to book either another climbing session or one of his river treks which also look and sound fantastic.

George was a great guide. Easy to talk to and very friendly. We had great day climbing. He made sure we had a great experience by making sure we had enough climbs, not rushing us to finish. Definitely recommend him.

Our guide, Manos, was excellent! He provided all the equipment and was very knowledgeable of climbing. He tailored our day based on our experience and was very patient while my daughter and I were climbing. We were offered both hard and easier climbing. This was a great activity to see nature on a cool winter day. We were helped by having them arrange a taxi to pick us up at our hotel in old town Chania and bring us back after climbing. Well done!

George was great. Very attentive, friendly, and well-prepared. He adapted to my climbing and energy level perfectly. We also made time for a break with excellent conversation. Bravo, George!

George in a gorge!! George was very friendly and attentive. Even though we have very different levels of experience George ensured that we were both challenged. We would definitely recommend a morning or afternoon with George in a gorge!!!
