4hr Tijuca National Forest Jeep Tour
From USD 69
We'll begin your tour with a stop at the breathtaking Vista Chinesa overlook point, located high up a winding mountain road called Estrada da Vista Chinesa, which connects the Jardim Botânico area with the Tijuca National Forest. Tijuca Park is a protected sub-tropical cloud forest, the world's largest urban forestland, and spans across an impressive 32 km² within Rio de Janeiro's city limits. Once inside the park, we'll visit the stunning Taunay Waterfall and Mayrink Chapel before embarking on a pleasant hike to the visitors center. The Tijuca National Park is a significant location for conservation biology, as well as research across various academic fields due to its rich biodiversity, cultural significance, and historical importance.
Before concluding the tour, we'll stop in São Conrado to enjoy one of Rio's most beautiful beaches. This stop will provide the perfect opportunity to soak in the local culture and enjoy the beach's vibrant atmosphere.

After being heavily deforested in the 17th and 18th century, the emperor declared in 1861 that it would become a protective forest and should be reforested. Over a period of 13 years, with the help of famous landscapers, more than 100,000 trees were replanted, resulting in the thriving forest that exists today.
