Overview

This is the part where I tell you how awesome we are and all that, but let's better get real shall we?

Ana, Luis and I have done this mountain around 150 times combined. We know it by heart now. This is important because conditions can change up there and fast and it's better to be with someone that knows his way.
We have solid English, something most other companies don't really have, so you'll feel safe knowing that we will understand your needs and concerns.

What about safety? No worries, we are trained paramedics and got your back in case anything happens. But fear not, if you follow our advice you'll be good as gold.

Finally. We bloody love the mountains. You'll be hiking with people that love to be up there and that, just as you, want to have a good time.

If you think we are a good fit, don't hesitate to write to us and we'll provide all the info you need.

    What To Expect

    Simple, the goal is to get to the summit and enjoy your time while doing so. Awesome scenery and sense of accomplishment certainly help a lot.
    Now, the technical part.
    This is a mountaineering experience done in a 5,230 meters (17,160 ft) high mountain. It ranges from intermediate level to advanced level, depending on your shape and acclimatization time. (You can send us an email if you have questions)
    The mountain can be either an alpine climb (wake up at 3 am and do it entirely) or a day hike. The day hike can be done as long as you are a person who exercises regularly and you can find it amongst our other products.
    The alpine climb is demanding and requires great strength from your legs and high endurance. You would carry around 10 liters of weight for 12 hours up and down the mountain so you can get an idea.
    The alpine climb requires the use of crampons and ice axe. We provide a crash course the day before if you've never used them before.
    Don't let the technical stuff scare you. If you feel you have a shot, give it a go, you'll get the idea of what mountaineering really is, plus having a great time

    City Boat Tours wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

    On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

    If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

    The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
