A 4-hour Rio nature tour combining Jardim Botânico, Tijuca Forest hiking, and weekday Vista Chinesa views from 388 meters up.
“Alexia, our host, was perfect - super informative and educational, but also really fun! Felipe our driver was great too, great activity”
Botanical Garden plus Tijuca Forest in one half-day tour. Two guided nature walks, big Rio viewpoints, and South Zone hotel pickup.
“The tijuka forest and the botanical gardens were wonderful.this that made me very angry were the guide who told me that he can not pick me up from Hotel Nacional and go to hotel Sol Ipanema.so I took a taxi and I went there.he came and took me.but what a surprise,he took back the same road and passed outside my hotel!!!!also he stopped and said the history of my hotel!!!and when I asked him why you didn't take me from here,he started to say foolish things!!!I am very angry with him and the company C2rio.”
Hotel pickup, a guided 90-minute walk through Rio’s UNESCO garden, and time to wander. Expect palms, pond views, and 500+ orchids.
“Le prestataire local n’est pas venu. Attente d’une heure pour rien. Aucun message ni pour prévenir ni pour s’excuser. Non recommandé”
Half-day Rio tour with hotel pickup to Tijuca National Park, Vista Chinesa, Taunay Waterfall, Mayrink Chapel, and the Botanical Garden.
“Guide super gentil, visite sous la pluie donc un peu compliqué d’apprécier tout à sa juste valeur. Nous n’avons pas compris pourquoi l’entrée du jardin botanique n’est pas incluse dans l’activité mais à payer sur place. Peut-être l’inclure dans la réservation et la payer en amont”
Tijuca Forest half-day tour with Vista Chinesa viewpoints, Cascatinha Taunay waterfall, Parque Lage, and a Chinese tea history stop in Rio.
“Ended up being the only one on the tour which gave a much more personal experience. This is definitely a must do for anyone interested in nature and history - despite being in the middle of the city, you feel a million miles away”
A 5-hour Rio eco-tour through Tijuca Forest, Tijuca National Park lookouts, Rio Botanical Garden, and Parque Lage near Christ the Redeemer.
“We had a great experience with our tour. Our tour guide was great! He was friendly and caring. We had a great time!”
Open-air jeep through Tijuca Forest and a guided Botanical Garden walk in Rio, 4 hours of views, waterfalls, and orchids.
“agradável, mas muito rápida e com pouco tempo para observar a floresta e os animais selvagens. A visita ao jardim botânico não foi realizada pelo operador, o guia informou que as 4h era apenas para a floresta da Tijuca, contudo tinha comprado para visitar ambos os locais.”
Private 5-hour tour through Tijuca Forest and Rio Botanical Garden, with Chinese Viewpoint panoramas and waterfall trail, hotel pickup included.
“El tour fue super bueno y muy informativo. Nos gusto mucho y lo podemos recomendar a todos. Muchas gracias por ese hermoso dia.”
Jeep through Tijuca Rainforest, tour Rio Botanical Garden, then view Emperor's Table and Mayrink Chapel, hike to Macacos waterfall.
“They cancelled the time slot I requested after taking my money but still took my money and did not return it. So I did not go at all . That's theft.”
A guided half-day in Rio’s Botanical Garden and Parque Lage, with famous palms, themed gardens, and art-meets-nature courtyards.
