Our guide started off by asking what experience we had with rock climbing and then hand selected routes accordingly. Along the way between climbs he mentioned facts about the area and about Iceland that made our time much more enjoyable. The climbs were challenging but not impossible and helped us appreciate Iceland more. Awesome time overall with an awesome guide.

I hired Ignacio Livianos of EE for a rock climbing tour after exchanging emails. We had a fantastic time! As a climber of many years, I was impressed with his knowledge, skill, and personality. We climbed yesterday on a freezing cold, breezy, totally clear day. Ignacio picked me up in his car, and we hiked, climbed, and laughed all day. He is safe and smart. Highly recommended! Other notes: Ignacio is fluent in Spanish, English (a bit of an accent, you Americans) and Icelandic, so communication was easy and educational. Iceland is cold in mid-October! Bluebird skies are not guaranteed. Consider rock climbing in the warmer months unless you like a challenge. But if the weather was worse, I would have been very happy
What a day !
