A scenic hike through the rainforest up to fantastic views. - This is a gorgeous hike through the rain forest. It definitely requires a level of fitness as the climb is steep in some places and lengthy, with fantastic steps at the end. Sadly we went up on a rainy, misty day so we couldn't see what is probably a fantastic view through the clouds. But you can't predict the weather and the climb was still worth it. Especially as we were a very small group.

Wonderful landscape - The guide knows the forest very well! This hike is really great and the view at the top is breathtaking. You can reach the highest peak without climbing.

Trail in Tijuca - This is the fourth mountain on which I walk in Rio and I highly recommend the tour. The Paulo (Guide) was great and super professional! Always very concerned and passionate about what he does. It was still time and we spent in the Azude Museum, something beyond the program and I loved to know one more of the museums of the Maravilhosa City. I will recommend it to friends. And I recommend it to everyone! Thank you!

Super hike with Paulo - Great hike with Paulo who knows Tijuca forest as well as his own backyard. The pace was good and well adjusted to the group’s preference with a good atmosphere throughout the tour. The Coati racoons were an extra treat. I definitely recommend this hike.

Excellent Hiking Experience!!! - We had an EXCELLENT experience with this tour company and with our tour guide. The tour company/ owner Daniel was SUPER accommodating for us, especially on very last minute short notice. They even allowed us to start our tour slightly later when we asked. Our tour guide, Pedro, was also incredible. He went at our pace ( not too fast, not too slow), and was funny too- he kept our attention throughout and made it enjoyable to be climbing up a steep mountain! Even though it wasn’t a sunny day and we missed seeing the spectacular view due to fog, we enjoyed a really great hike and it was a good time! Would definitely recommend!!!

A special day! - Was our last day and we really enjoy all the morning. The hiking was not to hard. We saw few really interesting animals like tucans and monkey and a lot of different plants. We had an amazing adventure time in the waterfall. Thanks to Samuel, our guide!

Hiking adventure - One of my favorite tours yet. Daniel my tour guide, picked me up at a designated spot. The tour consisted of some areas that we drove to see beautiful scenery and 5 km hike up and down a mountain. He carried my water and brought extra in case, and .took pictures for me, gave back ground history, and even had towels ready for the dip in the waterful. Highly recommended this tour and worth every cent!
