West Side (Rio) Story
Published on Mar, 2025
Tatiana (guide) & Romullo (driver) were the BEST! I could not have done it without either of them. Romullo picked me up from Copacabana & drove up Morro de Guaratiba as far as possible saving time & effort for the hike. Tatiana led the way for majority of the hike. She made sure I went all the right directions otherwise I would have easily got lost. We saw a sloth & monkeys along the hike! When I finally reached Pedra do Telégrafo (Telegraph Rock), the views were breath taking & definitely one of the best views in all of Rio! Thank you Tatiana & Romullo! And thank you Way to Know Rio for all your help in making my 1st time in Rio a once in a lifetime trip!
