Tijuca Rainforest Jeep Adventure

The jeep tour was a great experience our guide Lauro was amazing, very knowledgeable about the history of Rio, nature and animals full of facts and stories, and a great sense of humour. He made the experience very enjoyable. The climb to discover the most amazing views of Rio was well worth it, seeing a sloth, monkeys and raccoons was amazing. This will truly be one of the highlights of our trip.

The tour exceeded expectations. Our tour guide Lauro was attentive, knowledgeable, and patient with our group! We were able to take our time at each stop and really soak in all of the views.

Very punctual pick up. The tour guides were absolutely amazing. You can tell they love what they do. The trip involves a bit of a hike, but the tour guides always made sure everyone was okay before continuing the hike. Several hour tour - worth every bit.

It is a must-see tour because it allows you to reach incredible places, with unique views. I went with my partner, both of us lovers of photography and nature, and we were truly fascinated. We were fortunate to have Lauro as our guide, a wonderful, attentive, friendly person who generously shared his extensive experience and great knowledge of history with the group. Whether driving his jeep or during the hikes on the trails, he took care of us at all times, gave us advice, and made sure that everyone enjoyed every moment. We shared the tour with three other tourists (from the United States, Canada, and Arabia), and a fantastic group formed with them. Lauro speaks perfect English and Spanish, so we could all understand each other and have a lot of fun. Keep in mind: there is a 30-minute uphill walk (and then downhill) that requires appropriate footwear, either sports shoes or, even better, trekking shoes, so you should also consider that it is a moment of some physical demand. In any case, the guide adjusts the pace according to the needs of the group. Upon reaching the summit, the reward will leave them speechless. Even if it is not a cool day, wear a light jacket since sitting in the jeep while receiving the breeze makes it necessary, just like when exploring the interior of the jungle where the trees block the sun. We did not need to use repellent, but sunscreen is indeed important. There is a waterfall where you can swim, so wear your swimsuit! There are restrooms available along the way, and a café in the midst of nature, with homemade treats and refreshing drinks, ideal for taking a break. It was truly one of the best tours I have ever done!! Thank you, Lauro!!

We had an amazing jeep tour through Floresta da Tijuca. Everything was perfectly organized and very enjoyable from start to finish. Our guide, Roberto, was exceptional—kind, attentive, and very knowledgeable. He explained a lot about the forest, nature, and local wildlife, and he took us to areas where he knew animals often appear, which made the tour truly special (saw monkeys, sloth, birds) Our 8‑year‑old son loved every minute and was completely fascinated. The highlight of the tour was definitely Pedra Bonita—the views were stunning, and we had enough time to take photos (Roberto was also our photograph). I highly recommend this tour, especially for families with children above 6. A perfect mix of nature, adventure, and learning!
