It was OK for a US citizen to climb Elbrus in Sept. ‘24
There was some trepidation about entering, and exiting, Russia with a U.S. Passport. Also with booking a climb with an unknown tour company. Aside from a 90 minute detainment by passport control upon entering Russia (they were kind), this expedition couldn’t have gone better. With as good or better service, and much less expensive, than American tour companies I’ve used elsewhere. Every detail was taken care of from airport pickup to drop off including them helping me book a flight to Azerbaijan from MRV as I couldn’t pay for the flight with a credit card (sanctions). Don’t hesitate to book with this company.
A group of 4 people from Bulgaria, we used the services of Elbrus Climbing in August 2024. We are extremely satisfied with the company's overall service. We were in constant contact with them and they helped us all the time in terms of both logistics and all matters related to the organization. We are very pleased with the choice of our guide Oksana, thanks to whom we climb Mount Elbrus, despite the bad weather. Thanks also to the second guide Anatoly, who was a constant support for us. Everyone at the company was friendly and helpful. Thank you Elbrus Climbing. Highly recommended!
Unbelievable trip
🏔️ Peak experience #Walking on the dream .. Nothing is impossible!!! Life is either a daring adventure or nothing ! However, in Elbrus⛰️, the highest peak in Europe and Russia, it is the easiest to achieve the peak moment of life. I‘ve climbed to the top of Elbrus 5462m with my mountain guide Anatoliy at the end of August this year. Before this, I had failed to reach the summit of Mont Blanc in 🇫🇷 france in June. Then I had made a very good decision ,because the probability of reaching the summit in Elbrus is higher And the Caucasus Mountains🏔️ are larger than the Alps and also have perfect views I was so grateful to have met @the-best mountaineering guide in the world “Anatoliy” He is a superman🦸, a special forces soldier…life guard…His stunt climbing…a giant in both body and mind, Moreover, he gave me an oxygen tank... so I didn't have any headaches caused by the high altitude... Thanks to him... hulp me to"reached the summit very easily...🏔️🏁" I was also very satisfied with the mountaineering equipment they had provided by their company. It was very comprehensive. If i buy the whole set, it will be cost a lot of money. And This service is not included in other places. And I was like my cool mountaineering jacket very much... In short... This trip to Elbrus was very rewarding. Well done After this trip, my life story has gained more weight. My next stop will be start the highest peak in Europe... The basics of life are like this, use your good points to get through the bad times, if you want to become a fully developed self, you must constantly help yourself turn the page, help yourself upgrade, increase experience, and improve your original equipment. "Life Script" plays the extended version of @Live my maximum self the only wealth that you have in your life is the profoundness of your experience of this “nature life “ Around the world 🌎 How it started … How it’s going …explore Keep moving forward👣 Life requires continuous moving forward to appreciate different scenery. My tie would be invested on me.On improving Myself. I want to become a better person physically and mentally. When you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it. No matter what , I do my best & No gegrets,! As far as we can this discern the sole purpose of human existence is to kindle a light in the darkness of mere have being! A life without adventure leaves only emptiness and inner drama So,Without taking the first step, you will never be able to take the second step. Trying hard is the beginning of success. One day . you will tell your story of how you overcame what you went through and it will be someone else's survival 🧭 guide Am i dreaming?

Kazbek & Elbrus
a very well prepared expedition. support at every stage, from planning, through equipment rental, to providing transport after the event. During the whole time we were under the care of an excellent guide, Andrei, whom we could rely on at any time. Apart from perfect mountain guidance, he took care of everything else. food, accommodation and all our needs. he was able to arrange everything. From my whole heart - I recommend it
