Overview

This is not just a visit to the Tijuca Forest; it's an experience designed for those seeking to experience nature in a more tranquil, authentic, and personalised way.

What sets us apart from most tours :

Small groups
Fewer people, more comfort, individual attention, and a more pleasant experience, without the feeling of mass tourism.

Relaxed and unhurried pace
Here, you have time to contemplate, breathe, observe the wildlife, and calmly enjoy each stop.

More human and personalised experience
Close, welcoming, and flexible service, adapting the tour to the group's pace.

Real connection with nature
More than a tourist itinerary, the focus is on providing moments of presence, contemplation, and genuine contact with the environment.

Less explored by tourists
A more authentic side of the forest, away from the overcrowded spots.
