Incredible views, terrible guides
marianacW899OW, September 2026
Terrible experience, the guides were super disorganized; lives are put at risk in these types of activities and I don't think the guides were aware of that. The disorganization was evident from the fact that the meeting time to go up with other participants was not clear, and during the tour there were never clear instructions about what was going to happen, the route we had to take, the times for the activities we were going to do, and in the end the guides let us go down alone without anyone to show us the route we didn't know.

★★★★★Tripadvisor review
It was great… with an asterisk
71keitas, June 2026
I came for the World Cup but as I had some time before the game I decided to look for an outdoor activity and climbing go the “Eagles Nest” dot the bill. 4:20 am Pick up at hotel then drive to meeting point, then to the mountain after harness and helmet were fitted. Climb started slow on a pavement then to dirt and loose rocks. Then go class 3 and 4 scrambling and to via Ferrata like cables on the rock with clipping in that for us to the top. We then had to wait for an hour due to group ahead of us not having a long enough rope to rappel. After that things went smoothly with breathtaking views and nice rappels and hike down on loose rocks. High ankle to mid hiking boots would be the best choice here although trail running shoes are doable. We were back to car by 1 pm. My guide drove me to the hotel and all was great. *** what bugged me was that I was told that photos will be available after a week, unless you did a TripAdvisor review then they’ll send a link right away and photos will be available after”tomorrow”. Well that tomorrow was a week ago and they’ve gone radio silent after a few messages now. It’s unfortunate as the tour was good, but baiting to do a review and not delivering is poor, hence the star reduction.
