Great experience and fantastic view!
My guide Thomas is one of the best. He's passionate of hiking and climbing. He's veri experienced and patiently guiding me through every step. It's my first time outdoor climbing. Despite having some indoor climbing experiences, this was not that easy. However he has helped me complete the entire trail. The breathtaking view is so worth it! Last but not least, he's also a great photographer!! I acknowledge that this experience is most likely dependent on who's the guide that day, but I'm very lucky to have Thomas!

Pantanal Carioca by bike & boat - Barra da Tijuca hidden gems
Great Tour!
A really great tour, a whole new part of Rio we just didn't know about. Diego was very informative, spoke really good English and made the trip very interesting. Very highly recommended!
