This trip is great for nature lovers and those who like to hike. We went with Henry and explored the forest and swam in the waterfalls. Some of the scenes of the jungle were spectacular, especially the tunnel which was the size of the church. Henry also arranged a picnic for us next to a waterfall which was very scenic.

Excellent tour. Beautiful views. Henry, our guide, was perfect. He knows the forest in which we hiked very well and is passionate about it. The truck was difficult at times but the views of waterfalls and the cave were breathtaking. The picnic lunch was also good. Bring lots of water as the hike lasts a few hours and it us very hot and humid.

Stunning forest and great guide. Henry was an amazing wealth of knowledge about the forest and it’s plants and animals. He ensured we were always safe and answered all of our endless questions. A not to be missed experience for those who love the outdoors.

If I could give this tour 10 stars, I would! Henry met us at our hotel (early) and our tour began before we even reached the forest. Of course the scenery was incredible, but Henry made it come alive. He knew everything about the animals, plants, and trees we saw, as well as all kinds of science, history, and multiple languages. He clearly loved teaching us about a place that is close to his heart. This was the best thing we did in Rio!
