I did the Wild Beaches walk during Carnivale. It was great to get away from the maddness for a little while. It also makes you appreciate the beauty of a quiet secluded beach compared with Copacabana and Ipanema. Thiago was a great guide - explaining the local flora and fauna, and answering all the questions we had about the area. More

We were picked up by Thiago on time. His vehicle of choice was a lifted 4x4 which had a comfy rear bench seat. While he was driving us to Tijuca we got info on the Favelas and we passed. We got a brisk history lesson pre-walk which I was interested in as a reading buff. I could see it boring... More

I was only in Rio for a few days and really wanted to see some of the infamous brazilian rainforest. This trek was just perfect. Loved the combination of historical and botanical knowledge, with the trek. Thank you Thiago! More

I wanted to do something different when I was in Rio - not just sit on a beach all day, and Jungle Me was just what I was looking for! The hike I went on was paced really well, and the scenery at the top of the mountain was just awesome! The guide is really knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and was... More

He gave us some history on Rio and explained several things about plants, wildlife and any thing else you were curious about. If you enjoy hiking this is a perfect tour for you. Thiago hiked at a very reasonable... More

My partner and I did the Three Peaks hike during our week in Rio in March 2012. The booking website is easy to use and communication throughout was great. Thiago was a fantastic guide and taught us a lot about the history of Rio as well as the flora and fauna we saw during our hike. Don't be too put... More
