Great Guide, Excellent Tour

Melinda_S, Dec 2025

This was an amazing hike! Eduardo was a fantastic guide. He knew the trail very well and even guided individual footsteps to make it easier and safe. He took a lot of pictures and knew the best places, and then sent me the pictures after the tour was done. The view from the top was amazing.

One of the best, most challenging experiences in Rio

The lost star rating has nothing to do with the actual tour. The hike was fantastic. Great challenging hike, but even beginners or novice hikers/climbers can do it, and the views from the top are absolutely breathtaking. On a clear enough day you can see all the way across Guanabara Bay. Can take a while to do the ropes and repelling section depending on the volume of people climbing per day, but you get a full share of fun activities. Make sure you bring water and snacks!! Edu and Fernando were excellent and very accommodating guides, willing to take all the photos you'd like at the summit. Our group was a mix of Portuguese, Spanish and English speakers and they were excellent to everyone. However, Viator... I'm disappointed and frustrated. Upon booking the tour, we received a completely wrong meeting point, at the tour company's office instead of the trailhead. As a result we arrived at the trail very late, but luckily Edu was extremely patient and waited for us to arrive before taking us up the rock. He apologized even though it wasn't his fault. Do better, Viator

A trip for the history.

Bring enough water if you are a heavy sweaty man like me. Our guide Eduardo was FANTASTIC 🤩 And he help along the whole trail and giving interesting information regarding the city and the view. 👍😍🤩
