It was great to see the forest by open top jeep and the tour guide was awesome, very knowledgable! I would have liked to have more time in the forest.

We had a blast on this excursion. The group was so diverse - Spanish speaking, English speaking both the American and the England kind - inside joke with driver, and French. Though we could not all speak the same language, our guide spoke all 3 and made sure to translate and include everyone in the conversation. The hike was easy and the sites beautiful. But, I recommend you take enough water so you don't need to refill your bottle at the filtered station! Sunscreen and bug spray are not to be skipped.

I enjoyed the tour. The guide was punctual and picked us up even from Barra da Tijuca hotels. The guide spoke good english and took us trekking as well so that was very cool. They allowed us enough time wherever we wanted to stay a bit more and were very flexible and friendly. I recommend this tour

Great fun riding in an open-top vehicle. Saw lovely waterfalls and had a very enjoyable walk through the rain forest. A very good and knowledgeable guide kept us informed and amused.

This was a truly fantastic trip, well worth the money very efficient well organised picked us up from where we asked. The guide spoke fluent English,Spanish,Italian and Portuguese. One of the most amazing things to see in Rio x

First problem was as a handicapped person I walk with a cane there was no step to get into the jeep. It took about 10 minutes before we figured out if the pulled up to the curb that would work. After that, however, I was unable to get out of the jeep at the stops it made which was very disappointing. I was able to sit in the front seat that gave me more leg room but I was unable to hear anything the guide said. The driver did try to point out good places for me to take pictures from the jeep but all in all it was not at all enjoyable. The driver drove very fast on very curvy and not well maintained roads and although the tour was advertised as 4 hours it lasted less than 3 1/2 hours.

A very interesting tour, excellent tour guide (Daniel) who pointed out things of interest along the way and showed great knowledge and passion for the forest and its history. I don’t remember the driver’s name, but she did a great job of managing the vehicle over the the challenging roads.

Really enjoyed this trip with an excellent guide. Nice to get out of the city and into the beautiful rainforest. A little disappointed that we didnt see more animals saw a few small monkeys but that is the way it is with wildlife! Would recommend this tour.

The rain was a bit of a pain but our tour guide was very friendly, energetic and made the best of it. The drive to the rain forest was beautiful, the views were amazing. The natural water falls was breath taking. Thank you!!

I enjoyed this half-day hike through the Tijuca rain forest because it allowed me to see another dimension of this amazing city. In the hills above the gridlock traffic and chaos of the city lies a magnificent forest with enormous trees and endemic flora. On the drive in to the forest, we stopped at a gazebo that had a nice panorama of Ipanema and Leblon. We then saw a nice waterfall. We then did a hike not too strenuous of about 1-2 miles through the forest. I forgot to spray the backs of my hands with insect repellant and got some bites from unidentified insects so I recommend that you not neglect to spray the backs of your hands with repellent. The guide was friendly and had a good sense of humor.

Good fun, but don't need a jeep since all the roads are paved. Interesting history of the park, but don't expect to see many animals.

I like nature so this was a good tour. I took great pictures of Rio at different stop points. Small group, but had fun with them throughout. You have a walking tour, you learn some things about some of the trees that was interesting. A nice waterfall, small museum, and a little church was included on the tour. I would recommend. I took great pictures of Rio at different stops.
