Fantastic tailored experience

Julio was amazing! Took us to all the hidden spots and caves in the forest followed by a trip to Santa Teresa and great lunch! Thank you for a fantastic day!

Marvellous tour

Published on Feb, 2025

The tour was absolutely fantastic! Jalmir is an outstanding guide and a true gentleman. He patiently answered all our questions and went above and beyond to ensure we saw nearly all the animals. I’d give Jalmir a perfect 10/10!

Escape to the wonderful nature of Rio

Published on Feb, 2025

The overall trip was great. We’ve visited Tijuca Forest and truly enjoyed our climb to Pedra Bonita and the view on the top, The Bat Cave, Cascata de Baronesa and the shower we took in Cascata Diamantina. Ending our trip with the great view from Vista Chinese, a wonderful picture of Rio. Special thanks to Rodrigo, you’ve been a wonderful and extremely knowledgeable tour guide and it was great learning from you so much about Rio, nature and Brazil. What can I say, it was so good that we’ve even extended our trip with an extra hour :-D

A great family afternoon in Tijuca National Park

Published on Sep, 2024

Interesting, fun and sporty. We had some great family time time discovering the nature around Rio. Our guide Fabio was very knowledgeable about the park, local history and the plants and species around us. He adapted the tour to our wishes and mood of day and spiced things up a little when visiting caves in the park so that everyone could have a bit of fun.
