Reviews of Jagged Globe
"Bookdd the Snow and Ice Climbing course in Scotland in March 2023, I'm just gonna give my view on what I can rate: Booking: super easy, the guys working there helped us a lot regarding the rental equipment they offer and what would be the easiest way to pay, additional nights, what snacks will be offered during the climb etc Instructors: we went with Clive Hebblethwaite - superb instructor. Taking it a little bit easier the first to days to get back into climbing and seeing what we knew and how good we were (Sprint Gully on Aonach Mor and South Gully on the Ben). We then went to Comb Gully on the Ben and the Crypt Route on Bidean nam Bian. Especially the latter one was a superb joice. Hard enough so we could to do it whole being a real challenge but not too difficult so it would have been a problem. Clyve took really nice pictures of us if the situation allowed it and made sure, we would get most out of the week, even if it meant spending 10+ hours on the Ben. I can rate the other guides just from hearsay but the other clients we're all positive about their guides as well (Max and Nick). Equipment: I rented everything apart from the helmet, my harness and boots. It was all top notch. I would recommend you bring your own boots though, as other clients had problems with finding a rental boot that really fit them. Hotel: the Ballachulish hotel is really nice, with a lot of choices for breakfast. They'll provide every climber with 2 sandwiches and a flap jack for lunch. I asked for flapjacks only as I don't like sandwiches, worked out fine. The dinner is good and the rooms are fine as well. The sauna is about 5 minutes by car away though, so be aware of that. Overall a definitive recommendation to go with jagged Globe. We had guys on our trip that have done the course the 7th time - guess this is a clear sign how good it is."
"Just returned from Everest Base Camp trip and it was incredible. The guides and porters - Bi Bi Rai, BJ, Paban, Nima & Dipak - were exceptional and made our holiday. They made us laugh until we cried and were with us every step of the way. Nepal is a stunning country and this trip was breath taking. It is hard? No except for AMS which is non discriminatory. If you are fit and used to hiking this trip is a must. The accommodation was great and as described except for Gorak Shep where the facilities are limited and toilets are the most disgusting we have ever seen. Think cow shed with ice! The accommodation at Lukla also needs revisiting too as the current tea house is very outdated and there is black mould on the roof of the rooms. My partner is a coeliac and lost 1 stone 2 lbs on the trip. There is no understanding or consideration for GF options in Nepal (understandably). This ideally should have been shared up-front by JG and allowance made for him too bring his own food, snacks and cereals etc. I also don't think it needs to take a week to come down from Gorak and we could have walked for longer on the days coming back. Despite that we would definitely travel with JG again and this trip makes me realise I have 6000m+ in me and maybe some mountaineering too!!!"
"A truly memorable Haute Route adventure from Chamonix to Zermatt, despite the unusually hot conditions. The guides were 1st class, highly experienced and clearly very competent, and managed a number of difficult and potentially dangerous situations in a calm and calculated manner. The incidents that occurred did however highlight the difficulty of managing operations in the mountains without the aid of satellite phones or radio communications, and begs the question why radios or sat. phones are not made available to the guides as a standard. Despite the hazards introduced by the high temperatures the guides managed to adapt the 8 day itinerary and varied the routes without in any way diminishing the quality of the overall expedition. My only disappointment was related to the Mont Blanc extension which I'd booked to follow-on directly from the Haute Route expedition; despite Jagged Globe's guides clearly stating that the Mont Blanc extension would be cancelled due to the mountain being out of condition (for the route applicable to the hut selection / booking), Jagged Globe later refused to acknowledge the cancellation, instead stating that we were obliged to pursue an alternative trip to Grand Paradiso in the event that Mont Blanc was unclimbable, although this was not explained at the time. To make the Gran Paradiso 'option' mandatory is clearly incorrect, particularly when such a position is taken after the fact, and clearly contradicts what had been agreed with the company's guides at the time of the Haute Route course. I trust that in due course a full refund will be made, in which case I would have no hesitation in promoting Jagged Globe's guided tours."
"I completely endorse Stu's comments below about the recent Silvretta trip. Andy Owen was an excellent course director/guide, taking full ownership of delivering an excellent week's touring (including reorganising the entire itinerary at short notice when one of the huts closed). He was also great at adapting the activities to suit the skills and interests of the participants - putting big grins on our faces! I'm a returning JG client and they will continue to be my first choice in the mountains. Was great to see the overall boss out on the mountain too, demonstrating his passion for all things jagged and actually living the service he sells. Thanks Simon!"
"A fantastic ski touring and mountaineering trip with Jagged globe - no hesitation in recommending. Professional in approach but also a fun and friendly atmosphere. Pre-trip comms with Natalie in the office were excellent and really helped through turbulent COVID times. Was really glad to finally make it out to the mountains after a few false starts due to the pandemic. Daily objectives were tailored toward the groups capabilities making for challenging but achievable days in the mountains all delivered with enthusiasm and humour by guide Andy. I went away having learnt a lot and looking forward to future trips."
