Tip: We recommend booking on weekdays for a quieter experience and a higher chance of spotting wildlife. However, if the weekend is your only option, don’t worry—you’ll still enjoy an amazing tour!
Wildlife sightings aren’t guaranteed since animals roam freely and are influenced by weather, time of day, and season.
Tour duration may be affected by traffic, especially in a busy city like Rio, where congestion can sometimes extend the tour time. We STRONGLY ADVISE AGAINST booking on days with important commitments (flights, tours, etc.) as delays are possible. Morning tours typically offer a smoother experience.
Itinerary is subject to change based on various factors such as the park's regulations, prevailing natural conditions, and the physical capabilities of the group.
From May to October, reduced rainfall can impact the flow of certain waterfalls, affecting the itinerary. Please note that photos are for reference only and may reflect conditions during the wetter months.
Rainy weather does not affect the scheduled tour of the forest, which is known to be more enchanting and lively during such weather. The waterfalls are more magnificent and the chances of spotting wild animals increase during rainfall. Visitors are guaranteed a safe and unforgettable experience in the forest, regardless of the weather conditions.
For smoother logistics and a seamless tour, we may ask you to meet at a designated point, depending on your address.

5.00The hike started off slow with a few stops to refresh the group before the intense trail and to take photos of distinguished landmarks. My guide Samuel was kind, funny, informative, interesting and most importantly fluent in English. The hike itself is not easy but doable (taking into account your own physical fitness). We saw monkeys, cuatis and toucans on the trail and got to bathe in a waterfall. Moreover my guide took pictures of serroundings and of myself (upon request) and sent all of the photos by the end of the trip
