5.00The hike was amazing! With good help from our guide Santiago we reached the top. Hiking uphill, climbing and abseiling down hill. Great experience with a great view on top! The guide was a cool and helpfull guy. Definitely recommend. During the tour he gave us a lot of insights about other nice places in Rio. Thanks Santiago!!
Best guide! Best experience!

5.00My husband and I booked this tour while we were on vacation in Rio. Thiago, our guide, was extremely knowledgeable! We have never booked a guide before but we are so glad we did on this one. It’s a tricky hike and it includes some steep rock climbing and repelling. Thiago brings all the equipment necessary and we NEVER felt unsafe or uncomfortable. He will tell you everything you need to know along the way. He will also take the most amazing pictures of your group along the way and at the top!! We loved him so much! I highly recommend him!! We can’t stop telling our family and friends about our amazing experience with Thiago.

5.00Thiago was an incredible guide. He was very personable and had a lot of knowledge about Rio and the hike to share. Hike is a light word for this journey (it involves) some climbing and rappelling and Thiago made the group feel extremely safe and comfortable throughout the entire trip. He was also a great coach through it all as well. Can't thank Thiago enough for making our trip so great and I can promise you will be glad that you booked any of Thiago's expeditions. I have done many hikes and Gavea is easily top 3 out of any I have ever done.

5.00I had the pleasure of taking American friends on an adventure with experienced people. Thiago and Rafael worked as a team, mainly because the two groups met by coincidence on the track. We had obstacles due to the weather, which did not hinder the adventure at all. The guys are the maximum! 👍🏻 Both are arms up to the top! An unforgettable adventure for all of us.
