A view of the sugarloaf mountain in Rio de Janeiro from the Dona Marta lookout. At the bottom of the image is a section of the Tijuca Forest, bordered by the neigbourhood of Botafogo which connects to the Botafogo Inlet. The Sugarloaf mountain is misty and there are mountainous islands behind it, and behind them the mountains of Niteroi on the other side of Guanabara Bay. The mountains are misty and atmospheric and the sky is cloudy.

Fantastic Bike Ride in Rio's Rainforest
We had a great time riding through Tijuca Forest with Michael as our guide. I frequently do bike rides or tours when visiting cities and this was a standout experience from our trip. Michael guided us on a fantastic ride, gave some history of Rio, and provided information on Rio's culture as well as recommendations on what to do in the city. It was a beautiful ride and Michael accommodated the varying level of biking experience from our group. Also, he has by far the best bikes I've used on a guided bike ride/tour.

Loved this tour. Michael was very knowledgeable flexible and kind. He answered all of our questions. When he didn’t know the answer he would follow up later with an answer after some research.
