A little oasis in the city - This trip is great for nature lovers and those who like to hike. We went with Henry and explored the forest and swam in the waterfalls. Some of the scenes of the jungle were spectacular, especially the tunnel which was the size of the church. Henry also arranged a picnic for us next to a waterfall which was very scenic.

Great hike by and views - Excellent tour. Beautiful views. Henry, our guide, was perfect. He knows the forest in which we hiked very well and is passionate about it. The truck was difficult at times but the views of waterfalls and the cave were breathtaking. The picnic lunch was also good. Bring lots of water as the hike lasts a few hours and it us very hot and humid.

Ask for Henry! - If I could give this tour 10 stars, I would! Henry met us at our hotel (early) and our tour began before we even reached the forest. Of course the scenery was incredible, but Henry made it come alive. He knew everything about the animals, plants, and trees we saw, as well as all kinds of science, history, and multiple languages. He clearly loved teaching us about a place that is close to his heart. This was the best thing we did in Rio!
