Description

Explore Brazil's Rainforest on a private Bico do Papagaio hike, spot monkeys, sloths & toucans, and reach the summit for breathtaking 360° views of Rio with a bilingual local guide.
Experience a refined Brazilian mountain adventure in Tijuca National Park, with door-to-door round-trip transfer. Explore Brazil’s Rainforest on your way to the 989-meter (3,245 ft) summit of Bico do Papagaio, where sweeping views reveal Rio’s mountains, coastline, and Atlantic Ocean. Along the way, look out for native wildlife and tropical birdlife before cooling off beneath a rainforest waterfall and ending with one of the city’s most beautiful panoramic views.

- Door-to-door transfer: Enjoy convenient round-trip transportation from your accommodation in Rio de Janeiro.

- Bico do Papagaio: Ascend through lush Brazilian rainforest, natural terrain, exposed roots, and rocky sections as the trail gradually gains around 200 meters (656 ft) in elevation.

- Wildlife & biodiversity: Experience the rich biodiversity of Brazil’s Atlantic Forest, with opportunities to spot native birds, monkeys, and other wildlife along the trail.

- The Summit: Reach 989 meters (3,245 ft) above sea level and take time to enjoy the vast 360° panorama, with Rio unfolding far below.

- Cascatinha Taunay: Pause at Tijuca’s tallest waterfall, a striking 35-meter (115 ft) cascade surrounded by lush Atlantic Forest.

- Rainforest waterfall: After the climb, unwind at Cascata Baronesa with a refreshing swim under the waterfall shower.

- Chinese Viewpoint: Finish with a breathtaking Brazilian panorama of Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, Copacabana, and Rio’s coastline, beautifully framed by the rainforest. Closed on weekends and public holidays, when it is replaced by the equally scenic Mirante das Canoas.
