The hike is *no joke* so be prepared for that! It’s definitely steep. We did the sunrise hike, so come with a flashlight because it was still dark when we started out. But Caio definitely knows his way around—he’s a great guide and knows exactly how to get the best photos too! Once we got to the top and watched the sunrise…. Worth every huff and puff on the way up. Caio is super knowledgeable about Rio in general and taught us a lot. 10/10 would suggest (bring water, a flashlight and layers!)

The tour was amazing Caio did a great job of making me feel safe and took me on the adventure I was looking for.

I initially signed up for 1 tour which is the Telegraph Stone, but after we did the tour climb hike and took all the pictures, I felt super comfortable enough to do the Favela tour eith him, that same morning.

The Telegraph Stone tour was amazing we hiked the mountain saw the sights took pictures of the view and when we finally got to the stone, Caio took the best photos to memorialize the tour.

The Favela tour was in a whim, but I was so comfortable on the previous tour, I said “why not?” It was so much fun we road motorcycles took videos/pictures hung out with locals, saw all the good (and some of the bad), and got a history lesson on how the Favelas were formed. I was granted access deep deep in the Favela brcause Caio was so plugged into the neighborhood. He informed me that he was from there which made complete sense.

Again Caio took care of everything from the moment i originally signed up to the moment I was dropped off at my hotel.

The hike was a good experience. Don't forget your bug spray and water.😅 The view and sunrise were amazing. Our tour guide Caio was super cool and helpful.

A great experience! All the way to the telegraph, we enjoyed the nature around us. Caio told us many interesting things about the telegraph and Brazil. Plus, he took the time to take cool photos of us. It was a very pleasant walk that we will not forget.

Caio was the best guide on this hiking tour we could’ve gotten. He killed it with the pictures and videos with my mom, uncle, friend, and I. Plus we had a lovely dog accompany us along the way. It was good genuine talks and good local food afterwards! I recommend 🤙 The views were insane and worth every step up and down sunset.

This was the most memorable part of my trip to Rio. I took the sunrise option and couldn’t recommend more. My guide booked me a driver for around 3am pick up from Cobacabana beach, and sent me photographs of my driver and the car. The walk itself took around 30-40mins, and we arrived with plenty of time to see the sun rise. It’s an incredible view! There was 2 other small groups there, in total around 10 of us, so we had plenty of time to take all the photographs we wanted. Highly recommend.

Caio was amazing and his dog came along for hike. I ended up being the only person in this tour which was great!! The hike is NO joke. But, it was all worth it in the end to watch the sunrise and capture amazing pictures and videos.

I had a great tour experience with Caio! I enjoyed the car service to and from the hike and the friendly car driver. Caio was very patient and made sure we felt comfortable during the entire experience. The views were amazing and Caio captured many beautiful pictures for us! I would definitely recommend this tour!
