“The tour was excellent. Ederson was our tour guide. He was knowledgeable, helpful, professional and punctual. He was the absolute best.”
Hike Dois Irmãos in Rio for sunrise, sunset, or daytime views, with a local guide, moto-taxi ride, forest trail, and favela visit.
“What an amazing experience, from the bike taxi to the rising of the sun over the coastline. Our guide, Nat Assafir, was brilliant. She kept us informed about timings and the meeting point prior to the trip. Once on the hike she was very knowledgeable about the history of the area. Once we arrived on the summit we was lucky enough to watch the sunrise without any obstruction from clouds and mist. What a surreal experience to have a coffee, which Nat provided, whilst watching the sunrise over the beautiful coastline. Thanks Nat for making this an amazing experience for my wife and I.”
Watch Rio wake from Mirante Dona Marta on a private sunrise tour with hotel pickup, expert guidance, and views of Christ and Sugarloaf.

Hike Morro Dois Irmãos at sunrise from Vidigal, ride a motorbike taxi uphill, and see Rio from one of its finest viewpoints.
“Really awesome hike! Although it was a bit cloudy the views were still beautiful and I could learn some Portuguese words on the way :) I felt much more comfortable doing this with a local since I was travelling alone. Thanks so much for the great time!!”

“de tour was erg leuk!! we hebben heel veel gezien van de stad.”
Sail Guanabara Bay from Marina da Glória, see Rio’s landmarks, swim, and enjoy unlimited caipirinhas, wine, beer, juice, and snacks.
“We only sailed with the Genoa or foresail for 45 minutes with no main sail. We are sailors and were hoping for more sailing time but understand it is difficult with 10 clients on board. The snacks and drink options were sufficient and we all enjoyed are morning. The Captain and crew were comfortable and careful in handling the boat and clients. Thanks again”

“Pior experiência da minha vida! Conselho que dou é NÃO FAÇAM. Primeiro que fui no ponto de encontro e não tinha ninguém lá, cheguei 4h15 e o horário marcado era às 4h30. Daí fiquei em plena madrugada do Rio esperando responderem as minhas mensagem ou atenderem as minhas ligações e nada. Daí tive que ir na orla da praia saindo de quiosque em quiosque procurando o responsável pela atividade. Só conseguir fazer pois tinha um lá que tinha parceria com a “ empresa” ao qual contratei, caso contrário não iria conseguir fazer a atividade. O rapaz que me atendeu me passou a informação que eles não tinham mais o ponto…”

Watch sunrise from Morro Dois Irmãos, hike through Vidigal, and see Rio with guide Beatriz on a four-hour cultural adventure.
“La nostra guida Beatriz è stata semplicemente perfetta: ha spiegato tutto nel dettaglio, ci ha accompagnati in perfetto orario e ci ha aiutati in ogni fase del tour. Il giorno prima del tour ha piovuto ed alcuni tratti del sentiero risultavano scivolosi, Beatriz è stata molto attenta ad aiutare tutti i componenti del gruppo a superare ogni fase. Inoltre è una guida molto solare e premurosa. Consigliatissimo :)”
Watch Rio wake from a paddleboard at Copacabana Beach, with sunrise views, an instructor, photos, safety gear, and lockers included.
“Vue magnifique. Mais on a pas le droit de s'arrêter 2 secondes pour prendre une photo. Les moniteurs ne font que crier qu'il faut avancer. Plus stressant qu'autre chose. 1 seconde à l'arrêt et on se fait crier dessus. Pas relaxant pour admirer la vue”
Pick a city, a waterfall or a stretch of sand.
