Beautiful hike - The best hike in Rio. Very well organized. Mandatory guide from my point of view, there is 1 technical passage that requires insurance. Exceptional final view. Thanks to our great didi guide.

Great guide. Well Organized - Great guide. Good in communications. Well organized. Unfortunately we did not have view due to rain but overall enjoyed the trip. Since the rocks were wet it was a bit tricky but all went good.

Highlight of our trip - I went with a group of avid hikers and this was definitely a highlight of our trip. Our guide, Sergio, took great care of us and provided a lot of interesting history of the area. The views were incredible. The weather was perfect and the trails were well kept. Definitely would recommend to anyone

Amazing experience - We did the Pedra da Gávea trail and it was incredible, our guide Sérgio made the long trail time go by quickly and calmly, telling us very interesting stories and curiosities about Rio, and also reassured us with the climbing and rappelling in the carrasqueira showing the equipment (which is of high quality even though it is a very basic climb) and explaining how it worked, he also took great photos that we would never have been able to take alone, super sweet and attentive, and the view, which is a show in itself because it is incredible, made every trail is worth it, certainly the next time we go to Rio de Janeiro we will do more adventures with nattrip, it exceeded all our expectations. We highly recommend it!!!!

Wonderful hike! - It was such an amazing hike! Highly recommended! You definitely need to get a guide if you are not used to rock climbing. It’s a very hard hike that gets harder as you go up. You need to be in good health and shape to do it. You also need to not be afraid of heights otherwise this is not for you! This is a challenging hike but the view on the top are priceless. Our guide was wonderful and helped us throughout the hike (the rock climbing part).

Just Ok - I booked this trip based on the TripAdvisor reviews. I was sceptical about booking with this company but as they don't charge a single supplement I took a chance with them. With hindsight I probably would have booked with another company. So the good points Pedra da Gávea is probably the best hike to do in Rio. Rabbling down the rock was great fun and the quality of the photos taken by the guide (Lucas) was super. It is a challenging hike but very manageable too, albeit a good level of fitness is required. Their are other companies that do all of the above too fyi. I booked an English speaking tour. As their was only two booked on the English tour we were algimated with the Spanish speaking tour so the tour essentially became a Spanish speaking tour. The company has "form" in doing such a thing from reading other reviews here. The guide didn't have a good level of English in my opinion so other people on the tour had to translate to English. Given their is a bit of technical climbing involved I was a bit uncomfortable by that if a problem was to arise. That said I really did enjoy the trek primarily because Pedra da Gávea is so good but the company didn't add a whole lot to the experience imho.
