A must do experience in Rio - Easily one of the best highlights of our Rio trip - what a great experience! Our instructor Denis was absolutely amazing, he guided us through challenging parts and made us feel very comfortable with the climb. This is such a unique way to experience sugarloaf mountain and I could not recommend it enough.

Great guide and amazing hike/climb! - This was so epic and rewarding! Our guide Sergio was such a cool dude and very knowledgeable about local history and has lots of experience climbing and hiking. It was a first for us but he made us feel safe and at ease and we just had a blast. Highly recommend!

Go up Sugarloaf the hard (but fun) way! - Such a beautiful climb. It will take your breath away. The guide is very friendly. And you get to ride one of the tram things back down.

Amazing experience highly recommend! - One of my favourite things I did in rio! You get to experience the rock climbing and the cable on the way down so it’s the best of both worlds. Rafael was so nice and I felt very safe through the whole thing. Highly recommend for anyone visiting!

Great experience - The view while climbing is incredible. There are several parts with different points of view, and in the end the reward of reaching the top of Sugarloaf Mountain is sensational.

Hard but worth it! - Amazing experience! Dennis and Rafael are very good guides :)
Don't overestimate the climb though: protect yourself from the sun, wear shoes with good grip and take a small backpack to carry water :)

Amazing adventure - Amazing hike. Rafael and Denis are very professional and fun, they created such a nice vibe. The views during the hike/climb and on top are amazing and worth the small struggle of reaching the top. Panicked a little while climbing and Rafael and Denis helped me through it really well. Overall, a great adventure!
