Hiking and Rappelling Adventure at Tijuca Forest National Park - It was a misty and rainy day but the guide made me feel safe and at ease. I was a bit scared for the repelling part as I have never done it before, but the guide was with me every step of the way and made me feel at ease. I must commend Guilherme for being so knowledgeable about nature and dedicated to his work. He made the experience worth while. Keep up the good work
