"In March, my wife and I visited Thailand for our honeymoon, and I was determined to get on some of the country's legendary limestone cliffs. I contacted Mark & Heather at the Mountain Shop, and they were extremely helpful in setting up our trip and sharing information along the way as far as weather, accommodations, travel, etc. Once we got there, Heather set us up with a wonderful guide, Karem, who proved to be an amazingly friendly, engaging, and SAFE guide. My wife and I enjoyed hearing about his personal story nearly as much as the climbing itself! All in all, I'd say our only regret was not staying on the peaceful little island of Koh Yao for a few days so that we could enjoy the town and the cliff faces even more!
Thank you Heather, Mark, Karem and The Mountain Shop for a wonderful climbing experience. Best regards, and we hope to see you on our next visit to Thailand!"

"Koh Yao Noi--an island with very friendly people, a wonderful atmosphere, few tourists and incredible climbing walls! The walls are not so easy to reach but it is worth it. You will find likely the best climbs in Thailand! Furthermore, most of the time you will have the climbs to yourselves. Heather and Mark were very helpful and provided climbers with information and organized the transportation to the walls. We had an unforgettable experience on Koh Yao Noi!"
