00:00:00Hi there, thank you so much for your interest in learning more about us and joining the climbing adventure with us at the Bunker
-
00:00:12Last we checked, we have top notch reviews and ever increasing numbers of happy customers on TripAdvisor and Google
-
00:00:19What that means for you is, you can trust that your needs are going to be well taken care of and you're going to have a safe and fun experience with us
-
00:00:26We encourage you to watch this whole video because we've taken the time to pre-answer pretty much any questions you may have about climbing with us
-
00:00:33Once you're done watching this whole video, scroll down and click the book now button if you wish so that you can secure a spot early because it tends to get hard to get last minute slots
-
00:00:43Now first of all, Koh Tao Granite, which is so much about trusting the friction of the rock can really feel challenging even on routes or climbs of lower grades
-
00:00:52Based on your answers and short quiz earlier and on our immense experience, taking so many people of different experience levels out on climbing trips, we firmly believe you're going to get incredible value and enjoyment by enrolling in our outdoor top rope guided climbing trip
-
00:01:07You having to find safety is our utmost priority
-
00:01:10This guided climbing trip is the safest and best way for you to improve your climbing skills and have fun on the awesome granite rock we have here
-
00:01:17We've met and seen so many people who thought they could climb the climbs here easily, struggle and even the easier routes
-
00:01:23We don't want that to be you
-
00:01:26We ask that you trust our immense experience and judgment and come enjoy climbing with our awesome and experienced instructor guides
-
00:01:33Be guided, do it the right and safe way
-
00:01:37This is the best opportunity for you to really sharpen your climbing knowledge, mindset and skill set
-
00:01:42Here's what's included, how the guided top rope climbing trip works and what you can expect
-
00:01:47All equipment is included as part of the trip
-
00:01:49You need to make your own way to the bunker by bike or taxi
-
00:01:53If you need us to arrange a taxi for you to come to the bunker, we can help arrange your pickup but you will need to pay the driver direct based on your pickup location
-
00:02:01You can easily find the bunker for talent through the maps
-
00:02:06Your transportation from the bunker up to our beautiful climbing spot on top of a hill, 10 minutes away will be taken care by us
-
00:02:13We'll provide you with 1 one liter stainless steel bottle of water for your trip
-
00:02:18We use these to help minimize the impact of plastic on our beautiful island
-
00:02:22We suggest you wear something comfortable to climb in, bring mosquito repellent just in case and wear shoes or good sandals for the short hike up
-
00:02:31Now here's how it'll go on the day of your climbing trip
-
00:02:35Please arrive at the bunk climbing gym no later than 15 minutes before the time you booked for
-
00:02:39Once you arrive you'll fill in the necessary waver in an empty form if you haven't yet
-
00:02:44Our instructor guide will greet you and provide you equipment that fits you well
-
00:02:48The trip will begin when everyone has shown up
-
00:02:51And first our instructor will do a check and review of your climbing knowledge, skills and use of climbing equipment
-
00:02:57Our instructor will check that you know how to correctly safety tie a figure 8
-
00:03:02He or she will check you know how to belay another climber who's climbing
-
00:03:07You should know the basics of climbing movement if you're signing up for this climbing trip
-
00:03:12He or she will also check that you know how to position your body so you can be lowered off safely and comfortably after reaching the tops of climbs
-
00:03:20The check and review will be done within the safe and comfortable environment of our climbing gym where you will feel safe and comfortable
-
00:03:28The total time for the check and review in the gym could take between 15 to 30 minutes depending on how many people in the group
-
00:03:35Then you'll be taken up to our climbing spot
-
00:03:37There the fun excitement begins and all that's left to do is have fun and enjoy the view
-
00:03:43You'll do a few climbs starting from the easiest one we have based on your previous experience level
-
00:03:48The total time you'll be up at our climbing spot will be about 3 and a half hours
-
00:03:52The number of climbs you'll do depends on how long your strength and skin on your fingertips last and how quickly you can get comfortable on the granite
-
00:04:00And did I mention that the view from the top is simply amazing and is one of the best views of Koh Tao
-
00:04:06Once you're done challenging yourself and experiencing the excitement of climbing on Quota Granite, you'll be taken back to Bucca where you'll do a deep roof
-
00:04:13If you're ready for the next level challenge, ask our instructor guide about our intermediate outdoor lead climbing course
-
00:04:20Please take note our instructor will let you know he or she feels you're ready to do the lead climbing course because you'll need to have a certain level of master of basics before moving on to the next level
-
