Description

Rio de Janeiro never ceases to surprise tourists and residents alike. Much is said about the neighborhood of Copacabana, and after visiting Corcovado, SugarLoaf Mountain, Botanic Garden and other tourist attractions that are famous all over the world, people believe that they have already seen the best of our touristic places.

 But then, they are surprised by the neighborhood of Barra de Guaratiba, known for its many attractions, such as::

 

  • Several tropical beaches, some of them considered wild due to the difficulty of access.
  • A great amount of options.
  • Multiple trails.
  • The famous Pedra do Telégrafo, which attracts people from all locations and regions of Brazil, in order to obtain magnificent photos.
  • The Marambaia Sandbank.
  • The Burle Marx Botanical Gardens.
  • Pedra Branca State Park.
  • Grumari State Park.
  • The incredible Turtle Stone at Perigoso Beach.

Imagine finding a neighborhood that is similar to a small country town located between the Pedra Branca State Park, the Grumari Municipal Natural Park and some beaches of great beauty,  rarely visited due to the difficulty of access and therefore considered “wild”.


Xperiencer proposes to offer one of the most formidable experiences in the city, which is, to walk one of the most incredible trails by the sea coast, along the Pedra Branca State Park and the Grumari Municipal Natural Park. This trail,  of an intermediate level, can be covered by anyone, regardless of their physical conditioning or trail experience. This is a tour that will allow the visitor to appreciate the fauna and flora of the place, feel the aroma of nature and take wonderful photos

Sunrise at Pedra do Telégrafo

A spectacular sunrise

Our team, in a certain stretch of the trail, will offer another special service to our customers, that is, lead the group through the Vale do Deuses (Valley of the Gods), a stretch that will be tracked along the sea. The visitor will have the landscape  of the Atlantic Forest to his left and to his right, the beauty of the Atlantic Ocean. At the end of the Vale do Deuses (Valley of the Gods), our customers will arrive at Praia do Perigoso, take some pictures and start the final path,  the ascent of the Pedra da Tartaruga. Don’t worry, our guide will offer all the support to make the whole journey as comfortable as possible.

 

When you reach the top of the Turtle Rock, you can admire Pedra da Gávea, the “Wild Beaches”, Pedra do Pontal, Barra da Tijuca Beach and Grumari and Prainha beaches. After admiring a true spectacle offered by nature, Xperiencer will help the visitors to practice rappelling. Through the rappel techniques the visitor will be able to descend with all the support and safety of our team and contemplate a landscape that It’s almost impossible to describe with simple words.

 

Don’t think that your experience is over, because once again Xperiencer will surprise you! In a specially chosen location close by, our client will be able to enjoy the last activity: The pendulum, which  represents the final touch or better saying the climax of our tour, in which the visitor can swing from the rock towards the sea. It is pure emotion and adrenaline.

 

We believe that leisure and tourism itself represent a powerful instrument to strengthen family relationships and for this reason our team develops personalized activities for the  children and promotes unforgettable experiences for the whole family.
