Wonderful experience: Rio is not just dream beaches and joy. Set aside half a day to visit the Tijuca forest: it is really worth it Especially if your guide is Monica: she will convey her pure passion for this unforgettable location to you. Everything super Thanks again
We did not have a guided tour in the forest but a visit to the botanical garden and we paid the entrance ticket. We paid double we are not delighted.

Although the tour guide was amazing we never got to see the forest due to the forest being full to its capacity. I know it wasn't the guide fault but would have preferred to be given an option before we made that drive
Rainforest was the highlight of the tour! Our tour guide ~Monica Bertazzolo was great and had wealth of information on Rio city! We were a group of 16 and was very patient with all our questions
