Traveler reviews
A great Sunday morning
Sabrina was amazing. So friendly and kind and full of helpful information. You can tell she has a passion for Brazil and São Paulo. The experience had a good pace and was a great way to get out into nature not too far from the city.
Beautiful view of São Paulo
Monica guided us on a lovely hike up through the Atlantic forest to the view over the city. It was amazing to see how far the city extends in every direction. Monica packed many local snacks for us to try. The hike was steep in some parts but the views were amazing.
Good hike with great views!
Great tour! Sabrina was very personable and knew the park well. The hike is a great way to experience something other than the metro area.
Beautiful hike with awesome guide
Sabrina was an amazing guide, she was personable and knew the park very well. The hike was challenging because of the ascent, but worth it for the beautiful views! Highly recommend for an experience outside the metro area
Well-guided hiking in Jaraguá Park
I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Monica, my tour guide in São Paulo. From the first moment, she was very punctual, kind, and patient. Throughout the entire hike, she explained the history of the hill, the surroundings, and many interesting details about the city and its surroundings with great knowledge. The hike was over 8 km, with a demanding ascent, but every step was worth it. What made this experience really special were the small details: upon arriving at a beautiful spot at the top, she prepared a charming picnic with a beautiful blue checkered tablecloth and a wide variety of food options. She was always attentive to everything I needed and made sure that I felt comfortable and enjoyed every moment. On the way back, she introduced me to the music of Rita Lee, explaining to me who this great Brazilian artist was, and she also sent me recommendations for other music-related places that I want to explore in São Paulo. And to complete a perfect day, she took some spectacular photographs for me that will be a wonderful memory of this experience. I highly recommend Monica. Her professionalism, human warmth, and attention to detail made this an excellent experience in São Paulo.
