Pedra Bonita
The Pedra Bonita trail leads to one of the most incredible views in Rio de Janeiro and is even more worthwhile than the Pedra da Gávea trail, as it only takes 45 minutes to access the same views.
Pedra da Gavea
The world's largest seaside monolithis, with 844 meters, presents a formation reminiscent of a face and that has already been the reason for mystical theories. We can admire it very closely, from the plateau of Pedra Bonita

The best tour in the world, few tours are done with so much passion and care, Alvaro takes care of even the smallest detail, the climate in Rio can be changing , however he adapts the itinerary to make your adventure the best , it is the second time I take the tour on this occasion with my family and it was an experience that I advise you all to take!! Rio is not only Christ or sugar bread!!

It was a truly memorable experience to view Rio de Janeiro from atop a mountain, where the breathtaking panorama of the cityscape intertwined with the shimmering sea created a picture-perfect scene. Alvaro was an exceptional guide, offering outstanding service and making the experience all the more enjoyable.

Complete program, with right to the trail, waterfall, amazing views, tour through the interior of the forest, wildlife observation, lesson on the history of the city... and some surprises involved. All this without having to worry about anything, because Álvaro is an excellent photographer and thinks about everything, even the smallest details, to ensure that everyone in the group get the most out of the experience.

The tour was absolutely beautiful. Alvaro was very good at explaining the history and the details of everything we saw and everywhere we went! He also took lots of pictures for us, they were beautiful pictures too. I highly recommend doing a tour with him especially if it’s your first time in Rio or even if not I bet you he will make you view Rio in a completely different way. He’s so awesome, I would do the tour all over again!

It was an amazing trail! The view is beautiful, well worth the trip! The couple of guides, Álvaro and Fabiana, are impeccable! Super attentive, friendly, punctual and even gave a history lesson throughout the tour. Wonderful experience! I want to see other tourist attractions guided by them!
