Amazing Hike with the best Guide! - This experience was absolutely incredible, I have nothing but kind words for the guide that I had Rafa. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the Tijuca area but also had great... read more information for the whole city.

From the minute I got into his car he was kind and welcoming and offered information about everything we were driving past. I’ve visited around 30 countries in my life and he was easily the best!

For those wondering about the hike it’s a medium difficulty level in terms of effort but nothing that would be too difficult for someone who is active. There are some great viewpoint stop offs included in the hike too!

Overall I would rate this experience as one of the best that I’ve ever done and would implore anyone visiting Rio to do it too!

  Surprises around every corner  - Leonardo provided us with a fantastic tour, so many memories, places and experiences packed into this excellent half day

  Best way to experience Sugarloaf for outdoorsy people. Something for all climbing skill levels.  - Best way to experience Sugarloaf if you enjoy the outdoors and/or rock climbing and hiking. I did the middle Coringa route which was honestly tougher than any climb I’ve done... read more before as an experienced beginner to somewhat intermediate climber, but one who hasn’t climbed with ropes in several years and is a bit out of shape. My guide was extremely helpful with a refresher on belaying and safety, helped keep me going, and was patient when I was slow in several places. The views are gorgeous all along the way and I loved the variation you get with multi-pitch rock climbing, slabs, rock scramble, and regular hiking. All the gear I needed was provided which was so nice. Definitely bring bug spray as the mosquitoes were out in full force. I would also make sure you bring no less than 1L of water and then there’s cold filtered water at the top you can refill for free by the bathrooms. Getting down by the tram is easy and so worth it after the long climb up. Met up with my guide at a nearby restaurant around 1pm and made it up to the very top by 4pm with plenty of breaks throughout. Highly recommend this experience!

  Nature at its Best!  - We loved our experience with Henrique! We went to beautiful waterfalls, a wonderful hike with a cave and he stopped us along the way to see some wildlife and extraordinary... read more views that we spotted. He gave us an option of an easier hike or a challenge, and our group picked the challenge. He helped us every step of the way to complete it safely. Would definitely recommend this experience.
