Perfect for solo travelers - My tour guide was Leo and he was just amazing. This is perfect for solo travelers, he translated everything in English for me as I was the only person in the group that was English speaking. The tour is a hike which requires some level of physical fitness it Leo was very patient with the people who moved a little slower than others

Worth the hike. Must do once in a lifetime ! - Rafael Robaina is the best tour guide. He took a good care of us. The activity was enjoyable but not for people with health issues. It's moderate trail and very steep but it's worth the hike. Once u get to the top, the view was amazing. A must do activity once in a lifetime. Highly recommended

Excellent tour - The tour is excellent for providing to know Rio de Janeiro from end to end due to its route, in addition to the exceptional landscape after the track! The guide Rafael also made the difference, as did the driver Gilmar.

Instagram vs Reality - Overall this is a fun tour, but it is the classic Instagram vs Reality experience. The hike up itself is very easy if you are fit. It took me 30 minutes on the way up and 12 minutes on the way down. Once we got to the social media famous stone though, there was a massive line and we waited over an hour (yes, longer than the actual hike) until it was our turn to take pictures. There is a professional photographer opportunistically waiting there to take photos, he accepts payments in cash. You can also politely decline and take photos on your own device. I had a similar experience to previous reviewer Andrey, I was advised my pick-up time was 6:45am so was waiting in my hotel lobby at this time, but they didn't arrive until after 7am. I booked this tour for the English guide but my assigned guide didn't speak any English, she did speak Portuguese and Spanish which was appropriate for the other guests who spoke in Spanish. She was still very friendly and made an effort to communicate with me via Google Translate. Other guests on the tour also spoke English and helped me communicate with the guide. If you have time, this is a fun hike to complete. If you are short on time, there are much better hikes than this one. I'd recommend Morro Dois Irmãos (Easy hike) or Pedra da Gávea (Medium/Hard) over this one.

Awesome trail, but there are easier and faster ways to get there - The trail itself and the viewpoint are great. We took awesome pictures, saw monkeys and enjoyed the day. However, the tour organization had some issues. The main idea to get a guided tour was to save some time on transportation. Scheduled pickup was at 6:55, but they initially postponed it for 40 minutes and in fact picked us up with more than 1.5 hours delay. Also, tour description on tripadvisor says that the guide speaks English but she doesn't I'd say it is easier (and less expensive, in fact) to take uber to the trailhead instead of getting a guided tour
