Exercise, sight seeing and good company! - My first time running in Rio de Janeiro and I wanted to find an interesting route that would allow me to appreciate how the city fits together a bit better. So I looked online to see if anyone did running tours and sure enough Rio Running Tours fitted the bill! The guide, Rafael, was very knowledgeable about the city and I learnt a lot. The views from Sugar Loaf of the city below were amazing, even on a cloudy day.

Once in a lifetime experience - A wonderful running experience with great scenic views through the beautiful city of Rio, including part of Sugarloaf Mountain, plenty of history and running involved - and even some walking too - 13km in total. My tour guide - Carol - was amazing, and was happy to take photos of me throughout the tour. A truly amazing experience - you will not be disappointed. This tour is a must-do experience if you love running. It's a truly unique way to explore this city. I even got to see a tiny monkey too - very cute.
