Gorgeous & Fun - Communication was great by WhatsApp, Pickup was punctual. The long boat ride was fun. The equipment was of good quality. The instructors were incredibly knowledgeable and skilled. They would use a laser pointer to help you find hand or foot holds. They provide water, but make sure to pack your own snacks. It burns a lot of calories climbing. They take photos/video with your camera.

An excellent morning with excellent guides - We booked a morning session with Real Rocks, and were delighted with their service. I had gotten in touch with them (Jay) via WhatsApp, and clarified a few questions regarding pick-up, costs, etc in the morning. They organised a special hotel pickup (since our hotel wasn't in the pick-up area they service). The taxi took us to their shop/office, where we got kitted out with shoes, helmet, harness, etc. We were then taken to the ferry, to catch a boat to Railay Beach We had five people in our group, and two guides - Kung and Sha. Which makes for an excellent guide-to-participant ratio. We were taken to East Railay beach for a few climbs, and then walked to the West side of the peninsular, for a few more. All the climbs were in the shade, which made it a lot more enjoyable. In total, we had about 3 hrs worth of climb time; which was more than sufficient. For a first-timer, I had my fill till I could do no more. Both Kung and Sha were absolutely fantastic, and took pains to yell encouragement and directions during our climbs. After the climbs, we were put on a ferry, taken back to the office, and they also dropped us off at Ao Nang beach. An excellent morning, thanks to Kung & Sha, and the team at Real Rocks. Highly recommended.

Really fun activity! - Our guide Cha was awesome, he and his crew explained the equipment and how to climb very well. My daughter and I have had indoor rock climbing experience so it wasn’t a difficult transition to outdoor. Cha and his crew were very encouraging throughout and would tell you where to put your hand or foot next if you looked like you were struggling to find somewhere. Overall excellent with opportunities for photos/selfies once you reach the top!

Great experience, challenging climbs - Great experience, hotel pick up, boat to Railay beach, 20 min walk to the rock wall overlooking the beach. Nice setting. Climbs were solid, probably would need previous climbing experience (a bit too hard for complete beginners). Great experience.

Adrenaline kick! - This was one of our favorite activities! Half day tour was the perfect amount of climbing for us (beginners). We had a super fun and helpful instructor and the surroundings were so fascinating and beautiful. Would for sure recommend this if you enjoy adrenaline and a challenge!

Fun "learn by doing" introduction to climbing - Generally smooth, fun experience for my first time rock climbing! Pros: The instructors were very kind and the location was stunning. There was plenty of time and available instructors to climb with. Fun sightings of monitor lizards and monkeys. Cons: I wish there had been instruction and/or practice before belaying up high. We arrived at the beach as a big group, and immediately went up on the wall, 1-3 people at a time. It was nerve wracking going up with zero tips (e.g. how to use the chalk, how to belay down?), in front of an audience. It was also impossible to find an open bathroom near the cliffs, which was tough for a 7am - 12pm experience.

Adrenaline rush and amazing views but no training or tips for an absolute beginner - Pickup and drop off in time, all good. Amazing views on Railay Beach. For an absolute beginner this was really a tour to see, how the others climb. All instructors were really friendly and very relaxed, but they didn't provide us with instructions or tips in advance (e.g. how to use your legs, feet and hands, how to belay down etc.). I would say this is not for absolute beginners, however I really enjoyed trying and watching others to climb. Also I loved the views.
