Great views, great guide!

Lindsey_K, Jun 2025

This was a great experience! Not only did we go on an amazing hike, but also got to see a few other places in the forest, including waterfalls and a cave. Felipe was a fantastic guide speaking great English, going at our pace, taking tons of photos and making sure to point out animals and other points of interest. The views were amazing and he made sure this was super easy and convenient for us. I’d recommend this trip to anyone wanting to do a hike!

Amazing hike,...

Rafael was an excellent guide. He led us on a hike to Pedra Bonita overlook and provided just enough information about the wildlife and local area

Seriously a must do in...

Seriously a must do in Rio de Janeiro every minute was memorable because our guide Alex-Trips in Rio was exceptional.He took great care of us and told us so much about the area and all it’s inhabitants. I think my photos speak volumes as we’re still lost for words to describe this magical experience
