Pedra Do Telegrafo Hike Tour with Transfer
Description
The Telegraph Rock has attracted the attention of many hikers from around the world. The rock is far from the central area of the city, located in the State Park of the White Rock. The transfer service will take you to the State Park to start the hike. It is a moderate hike and a little steep in the beginning. The tour guide will assist you along the way. From up there we have a spectacular view of the Restinga da Marambaia, the Selvagem Beach and the Gávea Rock. The highlight is Bigorna Rock. You may sit on the rock to take a picture that gives the impression that you are hanging from the edge of it. Everyone will believe that you took a risk taking that picture.

I didn't go on the tour but I'm leaving a 5 star review because of the personal call the tour guide made to let me know that the trail would be too dangerous after the rain storm that came in overnight. It shows professionalism. Viva Rio.
The hike itself was good, but it is a strenuous activity. The hike is an hour long going up. Make sure u come prepared to hike and stay hydrated, u will sweat. Once you are at the top there is a wait to take pictures. There is no time limit or certain amount of poses you can do so the wait is 2 hours long maybe longer. There is no shade so u wait in the hot sun for hours since there is no limit, which was annoying. There should be a 5 minute limit per person to make the time shorter and have shade as we wait. The restaurant they take you to eat at is so hot, I almost passed out. They also didn't have any soap in the bathroom which worried me because the employees were using this bathroom as well. Overall, the activity was fun and Fabienne was great and really cared about our safety.
Hello! Thank you very much for your comment. It is very important for us to know what our customers experienced in our service and with our staff. Our tour does not include lunch, exactly because we could not find a restaurant of our liking in this region, I believe that it was not with us or if it was, it was suggested at the time by the guide. Anyway thank you for your comment, we will check.
Great track, time opened and the landscape was too much. The guide was professional and attentive to everyone, congratulations.
Olá! Muito obrigada por seu comentário :) Ficamos muito felizes em saber que aproveitou seu passeio.
The hike is very strenuous, but the view is well worth it. Fabiano was excellent. He helped my friends who couldn't make it get an Uber back. He went above and beyond to check on everyone and make sure they were ok. He also gave his extra water and took pictures of us on the rock.
Thank you so much for your comment! We are very happy to hear that your experience was pleasant!! Thank you for the compliments to our team, we always seek to offer the best for our customers. We hope to see you soon!
