Top Oaxaca Climbing

This was my first time outdoor climbing, and it was way better than I expected! With the encouragement of my two awesome guides, I managed to complete three climbs, and I felt more confident with each one. I also learned a lot about outdoor climbing along the way. My guides were super professional, friendly, and easygoing. We honestly felt more like friends than guides and guests—we chatted, had breakfast together, and shared music. The whole experience felt so free and relaxed. I’m pretty sure this trip will be one of the reasons I keep climbing outdoors. I guess that’s what climbing is all about: don’t overthink it, keep going, and enjoy the ride!

Every climbing trip with the Ewa team has been a great experience and this summer I was able to enjoy it a lot. I love that on every trip there are new challenges to achieve and that with their guidance, as they are great climbers and coaches, the challenges are achieved and above all one is guaranteed fun in a super relaxed environment and with all the safety equipment.

Very nice experience and the level is adjusted to you. Fully peivate, nad I even got some food and coffee. If you enjoy rock climbing or want to try this is hreat and the price is good as well

Great 3 hour hike down a river bed. Canyons and boulders to negotiate.Low water this time of year, however there were still many pools to cool down in. Cristian was an awesome guide, knowledgeable and entertaining. If you like the outdoors, hiking and serenity, this one is for you. And yes, the sandwich and ice cold cervezas at the end of the trip were great! Looking forward to doing this again when the river is higher for a different experience.

Great experience. Roughly a 3 hour hike down a riverbed. This time of year the water level is low, however many places to take a refreshing dip. Our guide, Cristian, was awesome, knowledgeable and entertaining. You will need to be in reasonable shape and enjoy clambering over boulders to enjoy this hike. Strongly recommend wearing some decent water shoes. We look forward to doing this again when the water level is higher.

Raymundo is a great guide and instructor. He is very patient, explains everything clearly, and continuously encourages me as I struggled to climb. In the end, I managed to complete all three paths. Great experience, would definitely do again!

It is a great young and professionel team. They really make you feel safe. You can choose between different routes and difficulty levels and can set your own limits. I had a really great day.

I feel so lucky that I found Raymundo when searching the internet for a climbing guide in Oaxaca. My 14-year-old and I are novices but my teen really wanted to try outdoor climbing while we were in Oaxaca. Raymundo was flexible about scheduling when the times on Cool Destinations didn’t work with our schedule and also when an injury meant we had to delay our climb by a week. Raymundo is a licensed and certified guide and really made us feel safe despite our lack of experience. And, when my teen froze up at the top of their first climb, Raymundo was so patient and reassuring and eventually even climbed up to meet them and reassure them through the descent. Fun fact: Raymundo is actually a surgeon who works as a climbing guide on the side.

The best hosts and climbing guides. I recommend them 100%. High level of experience and safety.

Excellent experience, highly recommended!

My friend and I had an amazing first experience outdoor climbing on this tour. The two guides were so encouraging, supportive and funny, and made the experience so much fun for us. Would highly, highly recommend this tour for anyone with any skill level of climbing! The delicious tamales for breakfast were a great added bonus. Everything felt extremely well planned and felt catered to us!

Great time great people great climbers! Definitely recommend if you are interested in the local climbing scene in Oaxaca

If you are looking to have an adventure with a small to medium sized group of a range of skill levels this is an amazing choice. Our group of 5 people (1 mountaineer, 2 hikers and 2 less active) did the River Hike Mazunte | Zipolite, our guide Christian was extremely knowledgeable and speaks very clear english. We did some cliff jumping at the start of the hike, then continued down river seeing numerous species of birds, fish, lizards and even managed to catch a glimpse of a beautiful Tilcoatle! While exploring the river and wading through pools of crystal clear water, Christian gave us information on the local indigenous peoples, flora and fauna. Not only was he well versed in this subject matter, but he was also just a very kind and enjoyable person to spend the day with. Thank you Christian, for showing us a wonderful time in a Beautiful location!

We enjoyed our day. Activity in nature with cliff jumps allowing us to have a ptite dose of adrenaline.

Very knowledgeable guide, excellent service, and most importantly, super fun! Raymundo went out of his way to make sure I got to my hostel safe and sound, and made it an awesome experience the whole time. 10/10, would recommend to anyone interested in climbing.

I had a great time climbing with Raymundo. I have limited outdoor climbing experience and Raymundo was very helpful with refreshing my knowledge of the basics of knot tying and repelling, making for a safe experience. We went to a crag 10 minutes from Oaxaca City which had beautiful views and - most importantly - fun climbing. If you’re looking for a fun day of exploring outside of Oaxaca City, I’d highly recommend one of Raymundo’s experiences!
