- From Slovenia to Mallorca ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A few weeks after leaving us a 5-star review following a climbing experience in Slovenia, Abhijeet came back to Explore-Share for another adventure, this time rock climbing in Mallorca with a group of friends. And another 5-star review followed. This is exactly what we want Explore-Share to make possible: easier access to outdoor adventures, wherever you want to go, through a global network of certified local guides. Thanks for trusting us again, Abhijeet Harolikar. See you for adventure #3 😅
- Knowing the mountains is only part of what makes a great guide. We analysed 2,376 reviews collected from our users over these past months to understand what they value most in a guided adventure. The results: > Knowledge & expertise (40%) > Friendliness & patience (36%) > Feeling safe (24%) > Adapting to the client's level (15%) > Teaching & learning (15%) Technical expertise comes first. But what really stands out is how much the human side of guiding matters. The best guides know their mountains. But they also know how to read
- 28 days in the mountains of Pakistan. And apparently, plenty of singing and dancing along the way. Delphine recently joined a local team for an expedition to Spantik Peak, deep in the Karakoram. After almost a month together in the mountains, this is how she described the experience: “Fantastic expedition in Spantik thanks to a very skilled and pleasant local team! The guides were very hard working and also always ready to sing and dance Baltic songs!” A 28-day expedition is a long time to spend together. Skills and experience
- I only hope to run into them again!” 🇬🇪 Probably one of the nicest things you can say about your guides after climbing a 5,000m peak Fernando recently climbed Mount Kazbek in Georgia with Tato and his brother Misho. He came back with a 5/5 experience across the board, but especially appreciated how well they knew the mountain, their professionalism, and the balance between keeping the climb safe and making it fun. “Kazbek ascension was one of the best experiences I've done. The area and the mountains are beautiful and unique.”
- Some adventures stay with you long after you’re back down. Lorena recently crossed the Monte Rosa massif on the Spaghetti Tour from Cervinia to Gressoney, guided by local IFMGA guides member of the Explore-Share community. “Their expertise, attention to detail, and calm approach gave me complete confidence, even in challenging situations.” Beautiful days high in the Alps, shared with great people. What more could you ask for? Thanks for trusting us with your adventure, Lorena! Happy end of the week. #adventuretravel
- At 22, Ling had already climbed Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn and Kilimanjaro. But Ama Dablam was the mountain he had been dreaming about for years. 35 days in the Himalayas. Weeks of acclimatization. His first 6,000m summit. -35°C on summit night. And finally, standing at 6,812m with Pasang and Nima. His advice to anyone dreaming of Ama Dablam? “Stop dreaming and go, provided you’re properly prepared.” An inspiring story about preparation, trust, and what it really takes to climb one of the most beautiful mountains in the world. 👉
- 28 years of mountains, adventures and friendship. And this time, the next generation joined in. Hubert met Swiss IFMGA mountain guide Claude-Alain 28 years ago. Claude-Alain introduced Hubert to the mountains. Hubert took Claude-Alain travelling beyond his usual horizons. Together, they even completed La Patrouille des Glaciers five times. Their latest adventure took them to Mount Fuji, this time with their children. Local guide Shinsaku Hama helped make it happen on the ground, bringing his knowledge of Fuji to the adventure.
- The Matterhorn was the objective. But this time, the right decision was not to climb it. Warm temperatures are making conditions particularly challenging in the Alps this summer, and good decision-making matters more than ever. When conditions weren't right, Tobias quickly adapted the plan and proposed alternatives. As Friedrich shared after his guided alpine adventure: "Throughout our tours together I felt very comfortable and safe considering the alpine environment." Being a great mountain guide often means knowing when
