I have the blast.. - Guide is excellent, speaks good english and with good communication since booking. The activity itself is strenuous, but doable. Be physically fit and a little bit of rock climbing near the top.

Excellent experience! - Excellent experience! The guide was Lucas, who led the whole group very well (about 6 people), communicating in all languages (Italian, English, Minierese and Goian), in addition to patience, mastery of the route, tranquility, highlighting the inclusive interaction he had, always leaving the walk relaxed. This is a trail that I consider of average difficulty in some points, in others I had quite calm. Climbing the carrasqueira was my first experience and I found it quite calm. A pity that the sky was closed on the day and I could not take pictures of the landscape, but I take it as an invitation to other times to make this journey!

Precarious but amazing adventure - A day hike that includes free climbing. Fantastic views, very diverse hiking and a very friendly knowledgable guide who took lots of great pictures of the group. Met the most amazing international bunch of people on the hike. We did it as a team and had bonded after half an hour. This is not a climb you want to do if you are clumsy, have poor condition or are in any way injured. Or afraid of heights. 5 people on our group were professional athletes. You don't have to be, but if you are inexperienced in hiking this is not the walk you want to start out with. Equipment: bring shoes with a good profile, so many people were slipping! And bring a backpack with water, snack, jumper, mosquito repellent. If you are fit and adventurous I recommend it 100%.

Amazing but difficult hike - Rodrigo was an amazing tour guide! He made everyone feel safe and comfortable during what I think for many of us was the hardest hike we’d ever done! I will say the hike is not for the faint of heart or those with a fear of heights. We didn’t use ropes so you are doing a rock scramble + free climb for a brief but scary section. Call the tour operator if you want to make sure you’re strapped in with ropes,

Amazing experience. Cannot recommend enough! - Definitely the best hike of my life! Eduardo was amazing. The guy is a LEGEND. He even managed to convince my wife, who is afraid of heights, to climb Carrasqueira. We always felt safe, even on the difficult parts. The views from the top are unbelievable and the drone video is out of this world. Highly recommended!!!

Perfect adventure - It was a great experience with a very professionel guide.: EDU. He took our group in a very good way up to the top. You could decide, which way you will take: The free climbing route or with the help of ropes. I took the free climbing part, because I‘m used to do it. The view is overwhelming! Thanks a lot!
