Posted By : Brian H
Great hike up to some of the best views in Rio! We went for a half day and it was perfect for us. Even after experiencing the night life until late the previous night.

Superbly well organized tour…We did the Pedra De Gávea hike with Thalles and he was amazing. He made sure we went at our own pace, made sure we scaled the climbing parts safely and was also our photographer. He definitely knew the best places to take pictures. We felt safe and taken care of the whole hike, which was definitely strenuous and physically demanding at parts. But once you get to the top, it’s all worth it. Great day, great hike, great guide, and great company to do the tour with.

We loved this but DO NOT BE FOOLED! This is a VERY challenging hike. We are all in very good shape and we all thought it was hard. There is a portion towards the top where you put on climbing harnesses and use a rope. Many other areas include pulling yourself up with chain or using roots.

Having said all that, it was worth the view at the top and the sense of accomplishment! Rafael was our guide and we felt completely safe and cared for the entire time. We saw monkeys, marmosets, and even a sloth!

Bring bug spray, 2 liters of water per person, and lunch. Plan on keeping a change of clothes or a towel in the car. Our clothes were so dirty and sweaty that I thought about throwing them away.

Communication on the part of the company was great. I highly recommend them!

I was a great hike. The views were fantastic. The most challenging part was go up and down the rock face with ropes. It’s definitely well worth it.

If you have the endurance for it, Pedra da Gavea was an awesome hike that has impressed my family and friends. Rafael is an amazing and supportive guide who coached me through where to place my feet and hands and also giving me a boost in certain parts as I am very short. He also took amazing pictures and stopped to take pictures when requested. This is one of my fave accomplishments in Rio.

Excellent hike. Our guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and made an excellent experience. The views from the top of the hike/mountain were incredible! Communication was very clear both beforehand and afterwards and it was a very smooth logistical process. Highly recommend this experience to others visiting Rio
