Hop into a jeep for a hike in the Pedra do Telégrafo. The 3-hour jeep ride is the best way to enjoy the beautiful landscapes. With the hoods off you may feel the sunlight and the fresh air as we pass through the shores of Rio. Far from the busy crowd, the Pedra do Telégrafo hiking leads to a special rock where you may take a picture hanging from the edge of it. Do not worry about pictures as our team is ready for your paparazzi moments. After the hiking, hop into the jeep again as we have a panoramic tour visiting the hidden beaches in Rio.
