Beautiful scenes from above - Really great hike with Henry and Anderson! The weathers been so-so in Rio at the moment but we definitely got lucky! I did the sunrise hike and we were the first ones there so got the best spots! I’d recommend bringing a flash light it’s really dark during the sunrise hike. 10/10 recommend this hike and this tour with Henry & Anderson

Well worth the visit - Ricardo was so amazing, genuinely interested in what we had to say and getting to know us. He was also reassuring with the safety side of things and funny! We had a lot of laughs despite the clouds at the top. It could have been very anti-climatic experience once at the top had he not been our tout guide!

Dois Irmãos Hike - Had a great time. The hike itself isn't too challenging, but it isn't a walk in the park either. We enjoyed great views along the way and enjoyed the sunset. We took a van on our way up the favela and motorcycles on the way down. An additional R$ 20 (~ USD$ 3.5) per person are requested in advance to pay for transportation from the place you meet the guide to the point where the hike actually starts. Although Google Maps doesn't show a walking path to the meeting point, you can actually walk from Leblon. It's a 20 minutes walk give or take.

It’s a lot of fun!! You... - It’s a lot of fun!! You can’t really do this trip without a guide. It’s so much easier to just book this trip and have everything sorted for you. I would say make sure you’re a hiker rather than a walker. This is a hike!!

Rio highlight - This was easily one of the most memorable experiences of my life—truly nothing like watch the sun light up this incredible city. The tour was well-run, the operators easy to communicate with, & the guide (Digao) very friendly. Can’t recommend it enough!

Favela tour done due to weather conditions - We didn’t get to do this trip as the weather forecast wasn’t good but were offered 2 alternatives by Henry and we chose to do the favela tour. It’s eye opening and interesting, not enjoyable but a learning experience which we will remember. Nice guys on the tour and communication was good.
