Great hike with Victor!

We hiked to the top of Pedra Da Gavea as part of a 2 week holiday in Brazil. We decided to do the hike on my friends birthday and what a great idea this was. We met our guide Victor at the bottom who proved to be incredibly safe and knowledgeable. Once we got to the top, Victor had brought with him some cake to celebrate my friend’s birthday. It was a nice touch and really topped the entire day off. The photo opportunities were incredible at the top and we were very lucky with the weather. Can’t recommend the experience enough and top marks to Victor for all he did!
Un-freaking-believable is what Da Gavea is!

The single best view and hiking experience to be had in Rio. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could. Don’t overthink this. The top of Da Gavea truly is one of the best views in the entire world. The hike itself is work and you will need to rock climb. If you don’t like heights then this definitely will be a challenge. Being reasonably fit is a borderline requirement as well. I can’t recommend this experience enough. Just do it and thank you later
Super hike and guide!

Super guide Gigi! He was skilled and helpful. Very friendly and spoke very good english. The hike was pretty demanding with some climbing at the end.
Amazing experience once again!

It was our second time out with Rio Mountain Sports. This time we chose to climb Gavea. Best hike we’ve done in Rio! It’s not easy - the trail is steep, there is a lot of scrambling and even some rock climbing. Really rewarding overall! Our guide, Didi, was very safety-conscious the entire time. He was also fun, shared lots of local tips, and took awesome pictures. Definitely recommend!
Amazing experience

Loved the experience! The hike is long, but totally worth it. The view at the top of the mountain was breathtaking. We hiked with Ivanir, he was very nice, explained and helped us in the difficult parts of the trail. If we didn't go with someone experienced we would probably give up. So we thank Ivanir for the amazing day!
