Fantastic day up (and down!) Snowdon with Simon and the rest of the group. We'd thought about going up alone but wondered how we'd get on with navigation and motivation - having Simon there was perfect for this, good chat, clear info on how far to go to keep us motivated and no worries about getting lost!

Fantastic experience with Simon and Gaby. We were walking up snowdon as a charitable event to raise money for Stroke Survivors Speech and Language Group based in Cheshire. Absolutely brilliant from start to finish.

A really great organised tour. Simon is knowledgeable and looked after everyone on the trip and even took us off the beaten track (safely). Despite bad weather we had a great day and were really happy. The group experience and lesser kept everyone motivated to reach the summit!

We had an excellent day with Simon on Saturday. The decision to go with an experienced climber was the right choice and due to the bad weather conditions he made sure we reached the top safely. The added experience of knowing an early start is needed was also appreciated and I would not hesitate to recommend booking with #mountainxperience and Simon every time.

was part of a group of 5 hiking to the summit today. Lovely mix of personalities hosted by Simon, our guide for the day.
Simon gave us a wonderful experience with just the right combination of knowledge, advice and banter. I would highly recommend to any first timers, or seasoned hikers as an expert guide offers a layer of security that makes the hike hassle free.

Excellent and fantastic day and to top it the weather was perfect. Amazing views and a good experience for a first time climb. Definately will be challenging myself for another mountain.

Had a great day hiking Snowdon. As the weather wasn't perfect that day I was very grateful for having booked the guided tour. It was relaxing not to have to plan too much on your own but rather just enjoy the hike and the good company of Simon and the group. Highly recommended!

This was great! Simon was so great at making everyone feel comfortable, encouraged a sustainable pace, and made sure that no felt left behind. He was incredibly friendly and easy to talk to which made the whole day more fun. 10/10!

I am still in pain but can’t wait to write about Simon. He is just brilliant 🤩. We would have given up way too early without him. But he just pushed us all the way up and made us feel so proud of ourselves. Look out for his 20mins sessions 😂. We loved it and also kept us going. Amazing view - been lucky with weather though

Simon is a friendly and excellent guide who took good care of all participants and gave an extra dimension to our Mount Snowdon climb. He made an alternative and more beautiful route down and took time to get to know everyone and listen to our stories. But most of all, he seemed to enjoy the hike himself just as well, and shared his enthusiasm with the group!

We (myself, husband and teenage son) had a great climb today, all thanks to Simon who was very encouraging and kept us motivated all the way. He’s very friendly, knowledgeable, witty and an excellent guide for climbing Snowdon. Through all the rain, mist and cold, especially at the peak, we kept going with Simon’s assurance and guidance. All in all, a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend this experience.

Me and my partner went on the Hike to the Summit of Snowdon, with three other lovely people, plus Simon, our tour guide. Simon was very knowledgeable, chatty, friendly and encouraging all the way to the top. Praising us on how well we were doing! Such a lovely bubblly person and a pleasure to hike with! Even though it was misty, windy and rainy Simon never stopped being positive and giving us beautiful envisions of what the views are like.

I couldn't be more grateful to Simon. He was so motivating throughout the hike, I would definitely have given up half way if he did not encourage me throughout the hike. He was knowledgeable and very helpful. Absolutely enjoyed my first ever mountain climb with Simon. Thank you so much. If I ever climb snowdonia again, I will surely be doing with Simon again.

I did the hike to the summit of Snowdon with Simon last week. Unfortunately my husband had to cancel at the last minute due to a knee injury. I was a little apprehensive about going on my own but Simon soon put me at ease. He was a lovely guy and so easy to get along with. He kept me motivated when things got tough. He would say only another 20 minutes of this and then it gets easier and he was right. He knew just when to tell you when to put an extra layer on as we were getting near the summit.
