Description

Join me on this experience of mountain biking tours in Rio de Janeiro and we will have the opportunity to discover and explore some of the myriad of delights that this magnificent city offers, as we can cycle around the world famous beaches, the idyllic and gorgeous coastline, the fascinating and lush green rainforests, and possibly the most famous landmark in Brazil, the Christ the Redeemer statue.

Rio de Janeiro is one of the most famous cities in the world, located on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean and internationally renowned for its beaches, annual carnival, stunning natural beauty and its overall party vibe.

We meet in the city itself, where all relevant safety information is dispensed, before we start the riding in earnest.

There are numerous different routes we can take on our tour, including taking in the stunning Ipanema and Copacobana beaches en route to Sugarloaf Mountain, a day spent riding to and around the Christ the Redeemer statue, and cycling West along 15km of cycling lanes to the tranquil and superb Prainha Beach.

Other options include exploring the lush green forest of Tijuca Forest National Park, riding up to the peak of Telegrago to bask in the awesome views, and also potential to head to the mountains a couple of hours away from the city.

All of these options provide a wide spectrum of the exquisite and amazing natural beauty of the area, with plenty of time set aside on each ride to take in the epic and breath-taking views that are seemingly around every corner and on every peak.

Hopefully by the end you will have fallen in love with Rio de Janeiro like so many before, and had fun doing it along the way.

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!

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.
