Rock Climbing at its best

It was really great. I didn't go into the weekend expecting to learn as much as I did. Would definitely do more trips.

What could be better than ending the year by climbing in paradise in great company. Trevor and Dees did a great job of looking after everyone, from excellent climbing days to recommending places to eat and things to do on rest days. Accommodation was comfortable and in beautiful surroundings. Just excellent trip all round. Thank you

Jude was a fantastic coach. She focused on getting us to analyse ourselves, and gave each of us time and exercises specific to our weaknesses. When trying to get us to a realisation, she often wouldn't tell us directly - instead she'd try to get us in to a place where we'd think through it and realise it ourselves. From the mental aspect as well, the breathing techniques and mental checklists of things to check yourself on when panicking and before reacting, were really useful and I managed to see benefits using them straight away. Would definitely come back to Rock and Sun, and definitely would like to work with Jude again (though I've heard good things from Blanka about the other two coaches as well and would like to be coached by them too at some point).

Jude was a brilliant instructor, managing to tailor her advice to four climbers at various levels. Despite having visited Costa Blanca with R&S a fair few times already, it felt new and different again and I have learned a lot and improved my climbing. Thank you

and really helped my climbing improve. It was far beyond just getting you up climbs but gave useful principles (technical and movement as well as mental strategies) to apply to different situations. She was always positive, encouraging and insightful. With sunshine and beautiful crags in the mix, it made for a wonderful week! Booking and all the general logistics were well-organised and smooth and I'd certainly hope to come on a future trip. Thanks!

The coaching, support and guidance we were given was top notch and we learnt so much which enabled us to progress and improve our climbing skills each day. We were taken to different crags throughout our holiday and the routes were well researched and chosen perfectly to suit out abilities and also allow us some fun challenges. I had a few health niggles during the holiday and Esther and was so patient and understanding and gave me the time, encouragement and support I needed which allowed me to bounce back with increased confidence and motivation. We had the best ice cream celebrations after a long day at the crag and were taken to some lovely restaurants throughout- the food in Kalymnos is delicious! Trevor, Desiree and Esther were fabulous people to hang out with too - we had lots of fun. We look forward to building on our learning and booking another trip soon. Thank you! 🙂

Thought your organisation and customer service was fantastic and Sergio was the best teacher. Even though we had a washout yesterday, we still learnt so much and had a great time.

Brilliant professional coaching in a beautiful location. Couldn't have asked for more. Will definitely be booking again.

...with Trevor as my instructor. Very patient man, and the way he builds from the basics upwards is really effective. Always friendly, always with a smile on his face. He is also a font of knowledge on climbing in general. Highly recommended!

We booked it as 2 days private guiding which was perfect and meant that Trevor really focused on our goals and helped us with our weaknesses! Would definitely recommend a climbing trip with Rock & Sun. We went to Spain more than a year ago, now this lead weekend and can't wait for our week in Greece in October!

...with passionate instructors and good, convenient accommodation/transfers.

...I learnt so much, that will hopefully change the way I climb for life, saw some beautiful places and met some wonderful people. I can’t wait to go on another trip!

...with Sergio. My footwork and technique improved very noticeably in just a few days. Top class instruction on top class rock!

My fourth trip with Rock and Sun and I have yet again had an amazing time and learned so much. The trip to Morocco was well organised, the guides were knowledgeable, supportive and challenging at just the right levels, enabling me to get a climb two grades harder than my previous best by the end of the week. I'm already excited for my next trip to Sardinia with Rock and Sun in the new year.

Many thanks to you all. After three climbing holidays with Rock & Sun in the Costa Blanca, this was my first trip to Morocco. The Gorges are amazing, with fantastic views and colours. All crags we visited were very nice and with super routes. Dees and Trev were wonderful as usual. The group was great and we really enjoyed our time together, both whilst climbing ad when we were out of the Gorges. Transports and accommodations were perfectly organized. Locals are very friendly. The classic high standard of Rock & Sun!

...Committed to making every aspect of the experience as memorable and educational as possible. They were instrumental in improving both my climbing technique and my confidence in leading. I expected to have a lovely holiday in Spain where I would be able to rock climb, but the reality was so much more. Everyone I climbed with was positive, helpful and enthusiastic. I am looking forward to enjoying time with them at their other climbing venues.

...delivered in a thoroughly professional, courteous and calm manner. The team have a wealth of experience that I as a novice greatly benefitted. I will return for performance coaching in the near future. As a novice I would strongly recommend Rock and Sun to would be climbers and novice climbers wishing to improve their knowledge and ability.

...Most beautiful places and top class instructors.

...The climbing was absolutely insane, pushing my grade was the cherry on top. Big thank you to all the team involved in organising an amazing trip!!

...from preparation to execution, and the overall experience. The coaches are skilled, competent and simply good people, providing great guidance and sincere and useful feedback, and excellent company after climbing. Everything was as well organised as Thailand allows, and it must have been the safest climbing experience possible in this environment. R&S know the best locations and will "upgrade" sport climbing routes with extra trad gear to protect safety of all participants. R&S are very committed to their products, to safety and to create an unforgettable experience. I am very grateful for the service I've received, and 150% happy about the value provided.

...to achieve the following: get confident enough to lead outdoor routes, learn the skills required to do it on our own, climb some challenging routes. We achieved all of them and so much more. Our instructor went above and beyond. We had some challenging whether but Jon knew the area really well and we got two days of good climbing on dry rock. Really happy overall, thank you.

...from Sergio. I climbed way beyond the goals I'd set for myself due to the encouragement and much needed push outside my comfort zone. I'll definitely be back!

...with everything we could need just a stone’s throw from the hotel. Climbing destinations were stunning, and our instructors looked after us really well. Thank you!

...I couldn’t recommend them enough nor could I speak more highly of our entire experience. We had an amazing time and achieved far more than we thought we would due to their expert coaching.

...was able to make sure we had a great two days of varied climbing (and even a scary abseil) despite the rain. Thank you!

...Able to come up with ideas really quickly to get around the poor weather on the first day and our second day was spent in glorious sunshine in the Wye Valley. Thanks very much, will look to book another course in the future.

...It was my first time climbing outdoors and the instructors were very efficient, patient and professional. Looking forward to book another holiday with them. Thank you!

...Sergio, our guide, could not have been better. He is knowledgeable, personable, funny as hell, a great teacher and an overall wonderful guide. The Big 5 itinerary was everything you promised and more.

...While my head wanted to do more each day, my body had just the right amount. The accommodation was good, although the water pressure in the shower in the outhouse was almost non-existant which wasn't ideal for a mid-nov trip.

...Chris had a few options in mind and adjusted our climbing based on the weather and our climbing skills. Albarracin is beautiful, great area to climb. I would have loved even more coaching from Chris, i.e. additional pointers and exercises to improve my techniques but just the practice and ongoing advice was already very helpful. Thanks!

...Chris was patient, encouraging and willing to offer advice / tuition where needed. No matter the weather, we were able to find a suitable crag to climb. I would not hesitate in recommending Rock and Sun and Chris to fellow climbers.

...He really knows what he is talking about and is very good at coaching. Great!

...Trevor and Desiree taught us technique and safety whilst also pushing my grades as a climber! Would highly recommend and book again! 10/10
