Inexperienced hiker, great experience! - My friends randomly decided to go for a hike during our stay in Rio. I decided to join but spent the whole time extremely nervous, I'm not physically active, have asthma and forgot my pump, and have some fear of heights. Alessandra was super accommodating our entire time. She gave tips on how to best exert my energy, was very generous with our breaks while also giving us some great historical context on Rio and communities in general. By the time we reached the top I was exhausted and tired, but felt amazing having accomplished this feat. Even up top Alessandras motivating demeanor convinced me to join the group closer to the summit where you can best take pictures. I was scared the whole time, but honestly she made me feel very safe and worked within my boundaries. I really enjoyed the entire experience, if I were to come back to Rio I would definitely want to experience another hiking trail with Alessandra! Adding to this she's an excellent photographer and took pictures the entire time we were going up!

Breath-taking sunset with incredible views to Rio de Janeiro - We were excited to do a hike in Rio, as Alessandra hype it up so much... And it was for a reason! The sunset from dois Irmãos was one of the best views I've ever had. The moto-taxi through the favela, all the pictures she helps to take and her humor makes this trip a memorable one !! Really recommended!

The views you will always remember - This hike has been amazing, not only because of the wonderful views but also because you spend an incredible time with great people. Alessandra is one of those people with whom you have a great time hiking. She also explained to us the history of the city and you see the landscape with a different perspective 😊 Thank you very much Alessandra for the experience!!!

Amazing Views and perfect guide - Amazing views and the most warming and interesting guide. Alessandra is proficient in English and Spanish, which explains every curious detail about the location history and local fauna & Flora, a part from being a typical "carioca" so it was perfect to sense of the cultural aspects if the city as well. Thanks Ale!

Beautiful views and Robinson was a great tour guide - Robinson was such a great tour guide, we met at 7am and got the motor taxis up to the start of the trail (very glad we went with a guide, felt safe with him!) During the walk Robinson spotted lots of monkeys and also offered to take photos and videos. He’s from the area so very knowledgeable and good company. As we went early we basically had the whole mountain to ourselves, would recommend going at that time! It’s worth clarifying with the organiser if the motor taxi and entrance etc is included before you book, so you know to have cash or not.
