Tour Description:

Can you imagine a city crammed with about 7 million inhabitants where there is a National Park that protects a tropical jungle, located in the middle of the city... The largest urban forest in the world? This is the Tijuca Forest! The forest covers a large part of the city, however, when we enter it seems that we are in another world away from the jet and the city.

I'm sure there are days when it seems like everyone has gone to take refuge in the forest, but who doesn't want to enjoy the coolness of the Atlantic forest, in all its exuberance, escaping a typical hot day in Río?

In a personalized Jeep, completely open and without a roof, which will give you a unique experience of freedom and real contact with all the delights of the forest, you will see its colors, feel the profusion of its smells and the fresh breeze on your face, refreshing the heat.

But the interaction with nature in the ground will take place riding in a Jeep. The excursion includes a short trip, which will depend on the activity level of your group, where you can observe the abundant vegetation of the jungle, as well as some very psychedelic and multicolored insects.
