A Sunrise you'll never forget - We had an amazing hike up Two Brothers with Anderson and couldn’t have asked for a better guide. From the start, he made sure we were among the first up to the trailhead. Making sure we got on motorcycles quickly and made sure we felt comfortable taking them, which made everything smooth and stress-free. Along the hike, he shared really interesting facts about the nature, the trail, and the local communities, with well-timed rest stops overlooking the favelas where he explained the history and social structure in a thoughtful way. Even though we’re avid hikers, he still checked in to make sure we were doing well. At the top, he found us the perfect spot to watch the sunset — unforgettable. Super knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about what he does. Highly recommend Anderson and What a Day Tours

It is a totally amazing experience and I would do it again! - It's a walk you enjoy from start to finish, back and forth! I recommend our guide Anderson, who was very attentive and made the tour much more entertaining, safe and relaxed. During the walk we spoke Spanish, English and Portuguese haha was very fun. It is an experience to do both alone and accompanied!🤙🤙

The Two Brothers Hill hike is an absolutely amazing experience, and has the most scenic view of the city. - Absolutely amazing experience! Our guide Anderson was very knowledgeable and told us information and facts, he was inclusive to everyone in the tour group, and very friendly. He made sure everyone was keeping up, and doing fine during the hike. Definetly the best tour guide we had during our stay in Rio! Based our own experience while we stayed in Rio, two brothers hill had the most interesting, beautiful and scenic sight of the city compared to the other well known viewpoints. Perhaps even the highlight of the entire two week stay. The hike, and view of the city during sunrise from Two Brothers Hill is what I personally cherish as the best memory of all the things we did in Rio. We went there during June, which is considered winter. While waiting for the sunrise, the wind made us freezing cold - but it was all worth it in the end. Definetly bring a windproof jacket if you are visiting during the winter months and there is a lot of wind that day.

Best guide u can wish for! - It was beautiful. We felt very safe. Our guide could tell us a lot about Brazil and history if we asked. He took very good care of us and also knew my few tips that made the experience unique. He has also sent us a list of activities and restaurant and is always there if we need him:) We are really super satisfied and Mega grateful that he was our guide in this great memory!!

Unreal hike at Dois Irmãos! Guide was amazing — chill vibes, crazy views, and amazing photos. A must-do in Rio! - The hike was incredible from start to finish. Our guide (Anderson) was super friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel safe the whole way up. The views were absolutely worth it — you get that real Rio experience, surrounded by nature but still seeing the city and ocean from above. The pace was perfect, not rushed at all, and the guide gave us great info about the area, history, and even took amazing pictures for us. If you’re visiting Rio, you have to do this hike — it’s the perfect mix of adventure, scenery, and local vibe. Highly recommend!
