Description

This 6-day multi-activity adventure in Rio de Janeiro that I will lead you is the most fun, special and unique way to discover this colorful city, as we cycle, hike, kayak, hang-glide and hike our way around the gorgeous and beautiful sights and sounds such as the nearby peaks, the world-famous sandy beaches and the Chris the Redeemer statue.

Rio de Janeiro, located in Brazil, is one of the worlds most famous and popular cities, and is renowned around the globe for its sandy beaches, annual Carnival festival, football stadiums and overall party vibe. Part of the city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and there is an abundance of nature right next to the city itself.

We begin on the first day by hiking up to the nearby mountains, Dois Irmaos, via several of the nearby favelas. The views from the top of the mountains take the breath away, as they look down on the world famous Ipanema Beach, making for a brilliant introduction to the city.

Day 2 entails cycling up to the absolutely spectacular Christ the Redeemer statue, an international symbol for the city and the country located in the lush green forest, and offering sweeping panoramic views back out over the city.

Day 3 involves kayaking on the fresh blue water of the ocean, before the afternoon is spent climbing on the epic Sugar Loaf mountain, where we will watch the sun set in sensational fashion.

Day 4 is a day of climbing and hiking, as we ascend up Pedra da Gavea, the largest coastal monolith on earth, that includes a sheer drop down to the Atlantic Ocean.

Day 5 is a day of cycling along the longest stretch of beach in Rio, Barra da Tijuca, on which we are able to cool off and relax after our exertions.

The final day contains an undisputed and exhilarating highlight of the trip, as you will tandem hang-glide out over the waves of the ocean before landing on the sands of Praia Pepino.

We finish the trip that afternoon, satisfied, happy and thrilled at having completed some absolutely fantastic, lovely and marvelous activities.

This trip is one of the most memorable and exciting experiences you can imagine – book now to have fun around Rio!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
