Jac Tomlins Family hike and Climb Combo

“Two Fantastic Days”

Last week we did a half day rock climb with our three kids - 9, 11 & 14. None of them had done any outdoor climbing before and they all had an absolute blast. Mark, our guide, was fantastic. He challenged the kids, but made them feel really safe and secure as well. They each did three different climbs, plus belaying each other. It was a really fun and positive experience for all of them and they felt great about what they had achieved afterwards. The adults did a few climbs as well and loved it - and the views were sensational. 

After the rock climb, we booked a full day alpine hike in the Remarkables. Paul, our guide, was brilliant - interesting, fun and really supportive and encouraging. He handled the sibling squabbles and at least one teenage meltdown with great patience! Paul told the kids all sorts of interesting stuff about the plants, rocks and scenery as we walked which kept them engaged. 

The terrain was rocky and it was windy and exposed at times, but we felt completely safe. My partner and I totally loved it as well and it was the highlight of our two weeks in Queenstown. I would whole-hardheartedly recommend Climbing Queenstown. Zac did a great job of listening to what we wanted and ensuring it’s what we got. Both Paul and Mark were highly professional, skilled and very safe. We’re just trying to work out how to get back there soon…

Thanks for a very memorable two days.

Sounds great, lets do it!
