Magical rainforest a stone's throw from city center - What a lovely day I had on my group tour in Tijuca forest with my guide, Bernardo. He had a wonderful personality, and he was super knowledgeable on the flora and fauna. The forest is super convenient to get to from the center of Rio, so I highly recommend checking it out while you're here!

Great guide and best view of Rio - The highlight of the tour was definitely our tour guide Eduardo. Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. The other highlight was the view from the top of Pedra Bonita. Best view of Río. During the tour we also encountered animals such as toucans, monkeys and lots of quatis. Most of the tour was by car so don’t expect a lot of hiking.
