The session was great. Very good introduction and all the time observing us professionally and giving exactly the right hints. Easy for him as he constructed the route.
Tony and his wife were extremely sympathic so that we also shared lunch,drinks and stories later. A day that we will not forget and hope to repeat in future.
Thanks a lot!

In my search for interesting trips to cool places, I was lucky enough to find Tony Lourens of Blue Mountain Adventures to provide what I was looking for. I have now done three wonderful trips with Tony: a bespoke weekend of hiking and climbing in his charming home town of Montagu, a five-day hiking, camping and climbing trip to the very special Cederberg and a three-day trip to climb Towerkop, a very distinctive cleft rock tower with an interesting history near Ladismith, all in different corners of the Western Cape. Each of these adventures was organised with meticulous care and with special attention to safety, particularly in relation to the rock climbing aspects. While we brought along our own breakfasts, lunches and snacks, Tony’s dinners were outstanding. Notwithstanding the mixed abilities and experience of his client groups, he managed to ensure that everyone achieved their objectives while having a thoroughly enjoyable time. While Tony is a seasoned guide and rock climbing expert, it is his passion for the outdoors and his extensive knowledge of South Africa’s mountain ranges and climbing hubs that sets him apart. I look forward to many more adventures with him.

Would recommend Tony whether your pro or a beginner like me. Looking forward to the upcoming climbs I booked immediately after completing the first course. Also Montagu, what a place!
