For a full day, we would like to guide you on a hiking adventure to the Bico do Papagaio in the beautiful Tijuca National Park.

Venturing to the Bico do Papagaio will allow you to enjoy tremendous views of the sprawling, vibrant and stunning Brazilian city of Rio de Janeiro. Other fantastic highlights you will get to see from the nearly 1000 meter high Bico do Papagaio include the Pedrada Gavea, Pedra Bonita, Pico da Tijuca, Barra da Tijuca Beach and Recreio Beach.

Throughout this trip, you will trek on a nature trail in the Tijuca forest. Along the way, you will get to see and even enjoy the water of the Cachoeira das Almas. You will also get to visit the Tijuca National Park Museum.

This is not a very difficult hike. However, because it lasts an entire day, participants on this trip should be in good physical condition.

Rio de Janeiro and the area surrounding it is an unbelievable sight.

Moreover, when you get to enjoy a fantastic hike through a place like the Tijuca National Park to reach that viewpoint, you know you’re in for an incredible trip.

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!

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.
