More than just a jungle ride - Our guide, Gilberto, was absolutely fantastic – extremely knowledgeable, committed and genuinely passionate. We learned not only about the plants of the jungle, but also about Brazil's culture, history and society in a way that made the experience both deeper and more meaningful. The guide responded generously to questions and created a safe and curious atmosphere throughout the tour. This was far more than a regular excursion – it was an experience we will carry with us for a long time.

Great scenic day out in the Rio Jungle and mountain tops - This was a great day out in the jungle behind Rio. The hill climb isn’t too strenuous and the views are spectacular. The waterfalls were a little underwhelming but that may be due to the lack of rain? But the drive through the park was still worth it. I would do it again if in Rio.

Awesome experience - The jeep tour was one of the best highlights from our trip to Rio. The guides were very friendly and professional. They give us some historical facts of the Brazil along with current cultural norms. The hike was a little challenging but the guides encouraged us and physically helped as well. The end results were very rewarding. I would 100% recommend this tour.

This was a great tour.... - This was a great tour. The tour guide, Roberto, was great as well. However, if you have a fear of heights, I would not take the walking tours to the peaks once in the jungle. You will walk up narrow paths with inches away from falling off the side of the cliff. Luckily the walk down was down a different and wider path. Also, I was told because of the heavy clouds, the group avoided going up a steeper cliff side.

Nature within the city - It was very crazy to realize that that whole forest is inside the river. We walked the jeep on beautiful trails, saw waterfall, mirante, macaquinho and a lot of closed forest.

Tijuca is another vibe - inside the jeep with wind in the face and sound from the woods, it looks like another world. Roberto was super punctual and guided the tour with a lot of knowledge of the region.
