Spectacular view and very good guide - Rodrigo is a very good guide, who knows the area and is always attentive to making the tour more enjoyable. The hike itself can be a little challenging, but it's totally worth it because the views at the end are spectacular.

A Hike to Remember - This trail was incredible scenic and exhilarating to complete. There multiple points during the ascending trail that offers mind blowing views.
Rodrigo is an expert guide who has a knack for enjoyable story telling with his deep love and knowledge of Río de Janeiro. He has the ability to connect with people in a warm snd familiar way. Rodrigo also offers great photos for you with the best vantage points and he offers an option to purchase cinematic drone footage of the experience.
This activity is one of the reasons I will never forget my time in Brazil and one of the reasons I will surely return. He is a true professional.
If you enjoy being active and outdoors I highly recommend doing this trail with Rodrigo.

Wonderful trail at Garganta do Céu - My experience with Rodrigo at the trail was amazingly beautiful, we managed to take awesome photos while connecting with nature.
We saw a couple water falls, drank refreshing born water from the mountain, looked at beautiful Rio from an excellent view from both sides of the mountain and later on get to Garganta do Céu where the view was even more beautiful and excellent for pics and vids he took.
Connecting with nature as well with my host Rodrigo, was a plus. Definitely recommend as a great Tourist guy⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Incredible Trail - I was with Rodrigo on two trails on the same day. First we did Morro Dois Irmãos and then Garganta do Céu. Rodrigo was extremely professional, understanding, helped me a lot and was very patient on the second trail, as he was not 100% physically fit. Rodrigo has full knowledge of Rio de Janeiro, the trails, everything is very organized. It was an incredible experience and I intend to go back to do other trails with him. I highly recommend it.
