Unforgettable! - Day ascent with Tripix. Our guide, Mateo, was great. It allowed us to make the ascent quietly but surely. He was also present for the descent which was not simple either. Another big thank you to him and his team who allowed us to live an unforgettable adventure. See you soon on the French mountains Matéo! Carole and Gil from Brittany (France).

The best guide ever! - I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Starting and finishing with our guide, Matteo. A very experienced, caring and patient person, always explaining every step to better manage our energy and expectations. As a solo girl traveller it was really important. Of course the amazing weather helped the climb and view. I highly recommend the night climb!

Fantastic night climb - Although the weather did not allow the climb on the combined day, we were advised to go the next day and it was simply fabulous. From the guide to the landscapes, through the climb and the photos. Thanks Mountain. Thank you Matteo!

Great experience!! - Night hike cancelled due to weather. I'm glad we were able to be informed of the risks that our departure represented thanks to the tripix team. We were offered a new time slot on Monday during the day. We were delighted by our hike! Matteo was a great guide, giving us both very interesting information about the volcano and what surrounds it, but also guiding us on the best route to take to save our energy up to the top. He also guided us on the technical details of the hike, thus facilitating our travel. The pace he set us allowed us to be alone at the top, before the other bands arrived. it was unreal! We do not regret our choice at all. A big thank you again! Everything was perfect!! PS: Matteo knows how to capture the good times by taking videos and photos during our best moments! Very excited to see all this 😁

Night climb to mount Pico - I can definitely recommend Tripix and their guide Matteo if you are planning to climb Mount Pico. We did a night climb in icy conditions, and everything went perfectly. Their guide service is a great option, even if you could manage the climb on your own, as Matteo provides insights about the mountain and keeps the spirit high!

Rise to Peak - The climb and descent to the peak was only successful because we had the excellent guide with us, Matteo. Matteo is an incredible professional and very attentive to his group. Thank you 😁

Night climb to the Peak - The experience of climbing the Peak Mountain was absolutely amazing! From the beginning of the walk to the top, every moment was marked by stunning landscapes and a direct contact with nature in its purest state. The physical challenge was great, but totally rewarded by the unforgettable panoramic view at the summit, especially at sunrise. One of the aspects that made this experience even more special was the fundamental performance of our guide, Matteo. With a deep knowledge of the mountain, he made sure that the climb was safe and well organized, providing valuable information about the path, the fauna, the flora and even curiosities about the volcanic formation of the Pico. In addition, the motivation and constant support made all the difference in the most demanding moments of the walk.

Excellent experience with Tripix and especially with Matteo - Night Ascent of Mount Pico - We had hesitated to make the ascent at night because we had read comments indicating that the ascent at night was really difficult but we did not regret our choice. Our Guide, Matteo, was perfect. Thanks to him, the climb went extremely well for our whole group and in fact did not present any particular difficulty. The spectacle at the top of the Pico in the early hours of the day is magical. Not to mention that the night climb avoids the "flood" of hikers of the day.

Difficult hike for an absolutely stunning view - This hike was the most difficult hike we have done but getting all the way to the top was well worth it. Our tour guide, Metaeu (sooo sorry I spelled his name wrong!) was AMAZING! Funny, encouraging, and took great care of our group!
