Great hike and beautiful view! - Felipe is awesome. He is punctual and very knowledgable. He knows the trail very well, takes a lot of pictures for us and shares interesting stories with us. He also gives us recommendations for Rio. We had a great time! Highly recommended!

Fun - Nice experience with motorcycle taxis that ride you on part of the route then you have to continue on foot to get to the rock! It still goes up quite a bit with a lot of rocks and roots it is one of the easiest hikes in Rio but still! After very nice viewpoint set way and up with the famous rock. Possibility to take the photographer but he is not insistent, we managed alone! There can be a lot of people you need to know that even with cloudy weather it can rework the photo with a beautiful blue sky for a few reais!

Great views - Great hike with amazing views! Felipe was super nice and educated us along the way with different plants and wildlife. Hike was moderate and took about an hour. Highly recommend doing the 4am trip as there weren’t many people when we got to the top.

Great experience, a real hike! lol - The guide was super gracious and helpful as we hiked up the mountain. The top of the mountain was beautiful however we did have clouds roll in that blocked our views when we took pictures. Nothing that the guide could control, but we did get several pictures of the view before clouds rolled in. Hike was invigorating! Awesome experience!!!

Amazing experience and wonderful sunrise! - We did the sunrise hike to Pedra do Telegrafo. It was an amazing experience and a wonderful sunrise. Felipe organised it for us and he's been very efficient and responsive. Alex, the guide, was very friendly. He did a great job getting us there before anyone else, taking a lot of pictures and also providing us with plenty of tips for our stay in Rio de Janeiro and Rio State. Highly recommend!

Unmissable experience - It is an incredible adventure, 100% recommended. My recommendations: Bring plenty of water for hydration, bring a snack, sunscreen, comfortable clothing, sports shoes, mosquito repellent. PS: AVOID GOING up late, dry and with any physical discomfort.

Incredible Experience with Top Tourist Guide! - Felipe and Jalmir are amazing, we got on the road very early (5an) to get ahead of city traffic and avoided meeting crowds at the top of the rock when we got there. Totally worth taking this tour, but keep in mind that it’s a very steep hike for people in good disposition and physical condition. We loved every part of it. Jalmir was super nice and showed us a few other spots along the way. Highly recommended when visiting Rio de Janeiro.

Terrible experience, cancelled last minute - Pick up was at 4am. Informed by operator by email at 12:30am that no guides were available. We had booked this trip on Tuesday afternoon for Thursday morning so plenty of time to let us know. No communication received from operator other than this last minute cancellation. They completely ruined our plans during our limited time in Rio - we got up at 3:30am to find out we weren’t going. Do not trust your plans these guys.
