Nice things people have said about us.
Thanks for organising an excellent week. The course format & accommodation was perfect. The guide was outstanding & gave us a full week of constructive tuition. I was able to put this training into practice the following week when I met up with a friend.Classic AlpinISM 2026

Thanks for a great week, in some pretty challenging and extreme conditions. Thanks for keeping us safe, teaching us loads, and being all round fantastic fun. I'd look forward to coming on another trip with you guiding.

Thank for an amazing couple of weeks! The ISM Guides were fantastic. I learned so much & had a lot of fun. I have come home feeling like a proper mountaineer, having made some great new friends and with some unforgettable memories. I plan to come back next year!Summits & Skills 4000m Summer 2026
I just wanted to thank you as well as Mark, our guide for the amazing week. The course was well organized and was just perfect for a beginner to mountaineering. We couldn't have wished for a better adventure. The memories are irreplaceable.Summits & Skills 4000 2025
Our guides were all excellent, I can't speak highly enough of them. They were all good company and superb climbers, and patient with us all.Matterhorn Ascent

Matterhorn Ascent - A Classic Alpine Dream!
Thanks for a fantastic week. It was really one of the best things I have ever done. I learned a lot during the week, not only about climbing technique, but also about attitude.

My very, very sincere thanks to the ISM Guides. They are truly quality people! Patient, understanding, professional, and wonderful ambassadors for your company. I have experienced many guides over my 50 years in climbing and they rank right up there with the very best.Mt Blanc Special

The Classic Alpinism course last week was excellent! The itinerary was really well planned taking into account the less than perfect weather and the abilities and aspirations of the group - we all learned loads.Classic AlpinISM 2026
