Onkar Sharma2025-03-18I spent my time with Ravi to guide me on lead climbing routes around different crags in Badami. The experience has been amazing mostly because of the nature of Ravi as a guide. He has been very patient with me, never rushed me on the routes to climb. If I want to relax and take it slow he is very understandable of my needs. I could progress onto difficult routes all due to the motivation and guidance given by Ravi. He has also played an important role in helping me find good accommodation and food options. Overall, I’d recommend to go with him as a rock guide to have best of best experience in Badami.
Sambhav Jain2025-03-12We went to Badami totally unaware of what await further. We chose Ravi as our guide because he was very helpful on the phone. He explained us everything around the course and place. He took utmost care about the safety of ours and also helped with recommendation of food as well as tourist places. He adjusted the level very well as per how we performed and that dynamic teaching style of his is something we loved a lot. I would recommend him to everyone who is planning to go to Badami for learning rock climbing.

zonal Net2025-02-09The 6-day climbing session with Ravi was nothing short of amazing! From the very first day, it was clear that Ravi wasn’t just an expert climber but also a fantastic teacher. His humility and patience made learning feel effortless, no matter how challenging the climb was. He had a way of breaking down techniques in a simple and approachable manner, ensuring that everyone felt comfortable and confident on the rocks. What made the experience even more special was the environment—it felt like home. The atmosphere was welcoming, the people around were supportive, and every climb brought a sense of accomplishment. Whether it was figuring out the right grip, overcoming fear, or simply enjoying the moment, every day was filled with small victories. This place isn’t just about climbing; it’s about connecting with nature, pushing your limits, and finding joy in the simplest things.

Madhuri Kudva (Elite Fitness Mumbai)2025-02-04Feb 2025 After our first rockclimbing trip with Ravi in September 2024, we went back twice - in November 2024 with 9 people and in Feb 2025 with 7 people. All 3 times, we experienced growth in our skills, fun-filled days full of challenge, expert guidance and adventure. Below is our detailed experience of the first trip. Both next ones matched and exceeded our expectations. Thank you Ravi and team! Sep 2024 This was our first Rockclimbing experience in Badami and we chose Ravi to guide us based on his previous Google reviews. The experience was exceptional! We spent 2 days with him; he organised all our gear, shoes and equipment. His cousin Shiva helped us on Day 2 when the group got larger so that we could use our time well. Ravi is clearly an expert, confident as a teacher and good in his communication skills. He encouraged us to try our best at every route. We loved our experience so much that we have already booked our next visit in Nov end and early Jan so that we can keep up this activity under his guidance. We are even taking along our gym members and trainers so that they can experience it too! Thank you Ravi!
