Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Parque Nacional da Tijuca, Estrada da Cascatinha 850 Alto da Boa Vista, Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro 20531-590 Brazil
After your guide picks you up from your hotel in Rio, hop in an open Jeep and buckle up for a fun ride! Drive to the edge of the cityscape and enter Tijuca Forest, located just 10 minutes from the city center. You’ll hear about the important reforestation program of Tijuca National Park and learn the importance of the Mata Atlântica ecosystem — part of the vast and protected Mata Biosphere Reserve, which covers 14 states in Brazil.
Duration: 2 hours 30 minutes
Stop At: Cachoeira dos Primatas, Rua Sara Vilela 460, Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro 22460-180 Brazil
See the waterfall during the hike
Duration: 5 minutes
Stop At: Vista Chinesa, Estrada Dona Castorina Parque Nacional Da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro 22460-320 Brazil
Get a nice perspective from the Tijuca Rainforest. At Vista Chinesa (Chinese View), capture sweeping views of Ipanema and Copacabana beaches, Guanabara Bay and even as far as Niteroi.
The lookout was built between 1902 and 1906. The oriental-style pagoda is a reference in honor of the Chinese who brought tea cultivation to Brazil in the early 19th century.
Made of bamboo and cement, and situated 380 meters above sea level, it is an important tourist spot in the city.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Emperor's Table, Rua Alto da Boa Vista, Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro 21043-080 Brazil
Enjoy the beautiful view of the city, as did the Royal family several times.
It was at this table that Dom Pedro I, when he wanted a meal in the middle of one of the most beautiful views, would leave his residence at Quinta da Boa Vista and, with his cart, would head towards Estrada da Vista China.
At an altitude of 487 meters above sea level, the Emperor's Table is set against stunning views of the city, counteracting urbanization and nature. Stairs surrounding the parapet of the area lead the tourist to the edge of a concrete ramp, making the tourist feel in the midst of a splendid setting.
Duration: 10 minutes
Stop At: Capela Mayrink, Rua Alto da Boa Vista, Rio de Janeiro, State of Rio de Janeiro 21043-080 Brazil
Take a short stop at this historical chapel. The little pink chapel in the middle of the woods, 460 meters above sea level, resembles a house of children's history. It was erected in 1860 by the Portuguese banker Viscount de Souto inside his farm, in Tijuca Forest. The Chapel is one of the attractions of Tijuca National Park. Adorn the altar reproductions of panels with holy images of Cândido Portinari. The gardens, as well as the Carrara marble and tiled patio tub with frowning spout, were designed by landscape designer Roberto Burle Marx.

Was good to see the forest,,Lydia our tour guide is friendly and informative..i enjoyed the tour and its a good experience.this tour is highly recomended.
Decent but not really exciting. Guide should have been more knowledgeable about the Flora. Could do this easily without guide except we were afraid of high crime rate
The Tijuca Rain Forest Jeep Tour from Rio de Janeiro is an interesting ecological tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and kept checking to make sure everyone was satisfied. The only downside was there were 9 tourists cramped together on the jeep. With a more spacious jeep, the tour would be a "5."
Had a great time on this tour. Erica, our tour guide, was so energetic, friendly, and informative. She showed up on time. The Tijuca forest was beautiful. We enjoyed the waterfall and the views. DId not see much wildlife, but did see some funny monkeys. The group we were with on the tour was also fun. I would recommend this tour.
The driver got stuck in traffic but Henry, the guide was on time. The rain started and we could not see the view from the look out point due to the rain - but we saw a monkey! Henry was interesting and well prepared and we hd a good tour.
I was deeply disappointed with this tour, which is partly my own fault for bringing unrealistic expectations to the tour. When I think of a rain forest I think of exotic wild life and plants. In fact Tijuca rain forest meets the technical definition of a rain forest, in terms of rain per year, but is actually a hand planted forest with plants from all over the world. It felt like walking through a forest in Ohio where I grew up. Nothing special. Because this forest is planted over a substantial amount of space in a mountainous terrain, it's elevation allows for stunning views of the surrounding city. That said, if you went on an island tour, to sugar loaf mountain, or to see Christ the Redeemer, then you've already seen stunning views of the city.
