The best view in Rio

The hike to Morro Dois Irmãos is fairly short, but the view from the top is breathtaking. The climb through Vidigal is smooth, and the panoramic view of Rio from the sea to the mountains is absolutely worth it. The guide was punctual, knowledgeable and made the group feel comfortable.
