I went on a solo trip to Rio de Janeiro earlier this month (January) and had such a good experience hiking Telegraph Rock with Caio that I cancelled the tours I had scheduled with other companies to see other tourist attractions and booked a second tour (best of rio private tour) with Caio as my tour guide instead.
We had an early start to Telegraph Rock and both Caio and the driver were on time. He was communicative and always available to answer my questions. He's funny and full of personality so we laughed and talked about Brazilian history and politics along the way.
At the top, Caio was my personal photographer and director. He has professional camera equipment that and takes the most amazing photos. I highly recommend this tour!!
