Completely positive experience with this outfit. Our guide Zach was terrific. Sending your kids over a 60 foot cliff is a swallow hard moment, but the experience was outstanding and my kids LOVED it.

We had a great climb with Pat! Super knowledgable, my husband and I both learned a lot from him. It was a great experience we would recommend to others.

Beginner and Trevor was really good at keeping us calm, safe, and having a great time. If you’re going to rock climb, definitely go with Arcadia.

Towards the end of the season my boyfriend and I spent the weekend at Acadia. I did my research and found the Acadia Mountain Guides Climbing School. I called them up and said I wanted to climb the otter cliffs in Acadia National Park. They were very courteous, prompt, and informative. Our guide Dick met us as the shop and set us up with the equipment. They we all rode together in my car. On the ride he was telling us about the area and his experience. He was so friendly and really knew his stuff. What I really loved about him was that he made sure we were learning about the ropes, safety, and gave us tips throughout our climb. Most guides i have been with don’t go into detail about rope tying and will usually just do it themselves. Dick showed us and had us go through it several times. I have never climber before but have gone rappelling. All you need to know is how to use mostly your lower body. This is so easy and even good for kids. I highly recommend this group!

First time outdoor rock climber who did a half day with my girlfriend. They were very friendly about rescheduling when we accidentally booked a month in advance and our guide(Mark) was the perfect blend of friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. Our climbs were definitely challenging but we didn’t feel in danger, Mark was very good at explaining the different safety mechanisms in place and letting us decide how much climbing /knot tying /belaying we wanted to do. I would definitely go back!

We did the morning climbing school with our family and two kids(aged 9 and 11). The scenery was great and we had fun. The only part that kept this from being a higher rating was the that the college-aged female guide never took the time to get to know us. She seemed a bit snarky; perhaps that’s the generation? Moreover, we climbed on the exact same spot for the 4 hours. Would have liked to try out a different spot. Not a bad company if you are looking for a fun activity with the family.

Pat was a good guide and took the time to focus on my children learning. They are 7 and 9 and we went to the canyon in Acadia. He showed me how to tie off as well. It rained during our entire climb and we probably should not have attempted it but we did it. The kids were cold and grumpy but got in some climbs. Unfortunately, my wife and I only got in one climb, which was a real bummer. Our climb was also cut short by 90 minutes after we had a 30 minute delay because of the heavy rain. I asked for a discount when we returned and it was not going to be easy. First they offered 10% then 20% and we agreed on a 40% discount, which was fair. This review would have been much different without that discount because I told them before leaving that we should not go and they urged us to do it and the rain just kept coming. I wish we could have experienced this in better weather but we all made the best of it and the discount made it a worthwhile experience.

Highly recommend doing a rock climbing trip with Acadia Mountain Guides. My husband and I had never gone rock climbing before and I was apprehensive. We went on a half day trip with our guide, Diana, and we enjoyed it thoroughly! It was challenging and exhilarating.
