Morro Dois Irmãos is one of our agency's closest natural attractions. It all starts in Vigidal Square, right in the begginning of Vidigal Favela, and goes to the entrance of the trail, made by motorcycle or van. The trail is about 1.5 km long, but when you reach the top, each step taken is greatly rewarded with a panoramic view of the main sights of Rio de Janeiro like Sugar Loaf, Crist the Redemeer, Copacabana Beach and more... Besides a beautiful view, this tour has a great Rappel for beginners, because besides being all the time in contact with the rock, it is short according to other places in Rio. With no doubt Morro Dois Irmãos is one of the best places to go Rappeling in the city because in the top of the mountain you can clearly see the best part of this wonderful City.

One of the best experiences that we have ever had!!!
My girlfriend and I spent a week in Rio and we luckily reached out to Miguel for the City tour on our first day! He was so great that we decided to do 4 excursions with him and his team during the week that we were here, and it did NOT disappoint. Miguel was amazing, his guidance throughout all of the tours was amazing, and he was so helpful and responsive on all of our questions that it made our trip to Rio so much easier and enjoyable. We did absolutely everything that we wanted and had a 10/10 experience with him. We did the full city tour, the favela tour, tunica forest tour and Pedra da Tartaruga rappelling. It is also al tailored to your needs. If you come to Rio and don’t reach out to Miguel you’re missing out in my opinion!
Response from the operator: Alan. We are glad you like it, and we hope to see you again in you next trip to Brasil.

'Pedra do Telegraphica' & 'Christ the Redeemer' in Rio de Janeiro 🇧🇷 #MiguelSavedTheDay🫶
Miguel single handedly saved my trip to Rio!! He was so helpful on 2 dream tours, Christ the Redeemer & Pedra do Telegraphico! I originally took a tour that ended up being rained out...and my flight was the next morning. I was beyind disappointed, as I literally came to Rio de Janeiro to see these things, as well as experience the culture of the country. I got Miguel's number from another guide and he promised me, he'd gage the rain and time our tours perfectly so I could see everything I wanted to see. I was a little skeptical, but he came highly recommended. I changed my flight and said a prayer and the next day was an amazing day in Rio🇧🇷 Miguel was super knowledgeable of the country, I learned so much from him, but he was also very friendly, personable and encouraging, especially during the hike to Pedra do Telegraphico. People travel from all over the world to see this rock, and as challenging as the climb was at times, Miguel kept encouraging me. We stopped, he even had water for me and we made it to the top, which was WELL WORTH the climb. In all, Miguel saved my trip and now I can go home feeling accomplished & satisfied and ready to plan my next adventure!! Thanks Miguel!!🇧🇷🫶🇺🇸🤙🏽

Rio de Janeiro
Miguel Cordoba and his colleague Fernando took us To Christ The Redeemer, Sugar Loaf Mountain, The Steps and Tijuca National Park. Him and his Friend are the best Tour Guides I have experienced, very friendly, caring, accommodating and dedicated with good knowledge. I would strongly recommend them to take you around in Rio de Janeiro.

Why this scores 74
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rio de Janeiro.
How much does Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $92 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Rio de Janeiro usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Rio de Janeiro is not rushed.
Is Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 33 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Rio de Janeiro, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour?
+
Around 12 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Rio de Janeiro can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Rio de Janeiro and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Rio de Janeiro within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Rio de Janeiro?
+
On Outty we rank every Rio de Janeiro experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Pedra da Gávea hike, your best experience in Rio, Favela Tour Rio de Janeiro - Vidigal Walking Tour by Russo Guide, Rio's Full Day: Selarón Steps, Christ & Sugarloaf – Tickets & Lunch Included. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Rio de Janeiro?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Rio de Janeiro?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour?
+

Where is the meeting point for Morro Dois Irmãos Hikking + Vidigal Favela Tour?
+
