Best Nature Experience - Eduardo was AMAZING! Not only was he super friendly, and informative, he was super fun. We laughed and enjoyed ourselves the whole time. My friends and I learned so much about Brazil while enjoying the scenery and nature. Eduardo took the most amazing pictures and was the best photographer throughout this whole experience. Going to the Tijuca forest is totally worth it especially with him as your tour guide.

Rio = an Eduardo guided Tijuca forest tour - This tour was my absolute favourite highlight of my entire visit to Brazil (and there were many highlights). From beginning to end the experience was efficient and fun. I booked very last minute and still received prompt and comprehensive communication and were picked up at my doorstep punctually early the next morning. Eduardo is an unforgettable and magnificent guide who clearly loves sharing the ins and outs of not only the Tijuca forest, but the whole of Rio. His energy and enthusiasm is very contagious. And - as other reviews certainly mention - his photography skills are second to none. He managed to make everyone feel comfortable, taking into consideration personality differences and physical ability. His excellent English definitely added to the experience. We wished we could have taken him on our entire Brazil trip.

Culture, sympathy and hospitality - An amazing walk with a unique and natural beauty. The guide with a lot of knowledge, who knows and knows a lot of the history of the points visited. To emphasize hospitality, joy and sympathy as it performs its functions. Very professional, but I can say I gained a friend here in Rio, no doubt too good people. Thank you RIO, thank you DULAPASTA!

Beautiful morning in Floresta da Tijuca - Both, my husband and I, enjoyed the tour with Eduardo. The forest is lush and beautiful. We were lucky to be included in a group with some very nice people. We got to see monkeys and birds, and enjoyed being out in nature and the beautiful landscape. Everything went well, from my initial communication with the team, to the pickup in the morning, to them dropping us off. The only two negatives for me were the price — I think it was a bit expensive for what was included; and I wish we had seen more animals, but that’s not something the guide can control. Also, going into the waterfall wasn’t a great idea as we both got bitten really bad by black flies, since the water washed out the repellent, both our legs were hurting with blisters and swollen for a few days. Besides that, all went well. I really appreciate Eduardo and Larissa’s (his assistant) kindness! She went as far as hold my hand at times to help me walk up some very high steps. You can’t put a price on that! I absolutely recommend this tour. 👍🏾😊
