EXPLORERS MAURITIUS

Worte können kaum beschreiben wie großartig und besonders die Tour mit Bryn war.

Er ist nicht nur ein wahnsinnig sympathischer, sondern auch ein absolut erfahrener und einzigartiger Guide. Man merkt zu jeder Zeit, dass Bryn das liebt was er tut und seine Touren mit einer absoluten Faszination und Begeisterung ausführt.

Bei unserer Tour auf den Le Morne starteten wir um 5:30 Uhr an einem Treffpunkt, von dem aus es mit dem Auto einige Minuten zum Startpunkt der Wanderung ging. Gegen 6 Uhr, pünktlich zum Sonnenaufgang, begannen wir den Weg auf den Le Morne - immer wieder hatten wir sagenhafte Blicke auf die Insel und das umliegende Meer. Als dann der Kletterpart kam, schaffte Bryn es mit seiner Erfahrung und seinem Wesen allen ein gutes und sicheres Gefühl zu geben. Bei den schwierigeren Partien stand er bereit, erklärte was wir machen müssen und führte, beim Abstieg, unsere Füße so, dass wir stets einen sicheren Halt hatten.

Oben angekommen zahlte sich der frühe Start der Wanderung aus, wir waren, bis auf zwei weitere Personen, die einzigen am Gipfel und wurden mit einem atemberaubenden Blick belohnt. Vor Ort hatten wir 45 Minuten um dies auf uns wirken zu lassen, Fotos zu machen und auszuruhen.

Gegen 9:45/10 Uhr waren wir wieder am Startpunkt angekommen und konnten somit nicht nur die vielen Wanderer umgehen, die sich später auf den Weg machten, sondern auch die hohen Temperaturen.

Am Abend schickte Bryn uns dann sämtliche Fotos, die er geschossen hatte und sogar ein Video der gesamten Wanderung, welches uns Tränen in die Augen trieb und diese großartige Erfahrung zusammenfasste.

Diese Wanderung war wirklich eine der schönsten und einzigartigsten, was nicht nur an der Natur und den grandiosen Blicken, sondern auch an Bryn lag. Seine Art, seine Erfahrung, seine Liebe zu dem was er tut - großes Kompliment ❤️

Reading some of the reviews, I find it hard to think of new ways to praise Bryn. That's why I'll just share my honest opinion - he is one of the nicest human beings you can ever come across on this planet. He was simply incredible. He is so knowledgeable, passionate and caring that I cannot imagine how anyone could have a bad time with him. Some of the "smaller" highlights, because, yes, the view on the top is to die for, but you have to get there first. Straight off the bat you just feel completely comfortable and safe with him. With his professional training and career as a climber, climbing pretty much all of the highest peaks, he has just a special way of making people relaxed and making sure everyone is enjoying themselves. Safety is one of his highest priorities, so you shouldn't be afraid and he is extremely helpful whenever someone is unsure how to continue the climb.
I guess we had a small hiccup with the booking, but none of it was Bryn's fault and he handled the problem in such a professional way, that we sadly almost never see nowadays.
Just some random facts about the hike/climb: we met at 5:30 and ended the hike at around 10 o'clock. We had PLENTY of time on the peak and because we started so early, we were the first to arrive there. Bryn made wonderful pictures and videos of our group the entire way. The climb can be a bit challenging, but with Bryn's impeccable guidance, it's doable for most of the people. Proof of that is the fact, that I managed to climb to the top, even though I am afraid of heights. I would highly suggest wearing walking shoes that have a good grip while walking, coz you will be climbing rocks for some 130 meters in total. Bring plenty of water with you (1,5 l per person) and I would suggest removing any rings from your hands. So....yeah, I think that sums it up. I can write another 1000 words and it still won't be enough to describe the extent of Bryn's awesomeness. I wholeheartedly recommend going on any of his trips if you are looking for a good time.

So, thank you for everything, Bryn and I hope to see you again.

Regards, George and Tamara

TL;DR The view is breathtaking, the hike is awesome and Bryn is the best climbing guide on the planet.

We recently completed this hike and it was undoubtedly a highlight of our trip to Mauritius. Bryn is a fantastic guide: he is extremely knowledgable, passionate about what he does and great fun! He is a brilliant at making the group feel relaxed and confident. The views are stunning throughout - particularly at the top - and I would absolutely recommend this trip to anyone visiting Mauritius.

I met Bryn at the summit of Le Morne Mountain. You could immediately tell his group was having a fantastic hiking experience. He was very knowledgeable, ensured his group were safe when negotiating the more challenging parts of the trek. He also took some amazing photos which he offered to include me in and share. I would certainly recommend Explorers Mauritius to anyone searching for a guide while they're on the island. You will have an unforgettable experience!

Our trip up Le Mourne with Bryn was incredible. He was incredibly wise and knowledgeable and was a massive help to all of us. He was prepared for every eventuality and even helped another tourist as they were climbing the mountain and passed out due to heat stroke. Not only did Bryn look out for our group but he was constantly informing and guiding other tourists and groups going up the mountain, which just showed how well he knows this mountain. I could not have put my trust in anyone better to lead us up and down Le Morne. Thank you Bryn!
