"Surreal the morning journey"
It was an amazing experience, especially due to the schedule, 3:30 in the morning. The guide, Michel, was super attentive. Showed that you really know the area. Sympathetic, always showing the best on the track and how to proceed, especially for me who am not so experienced in the track. Congratulations Michel. He became my friend.

Unique experience in the Telegraph Stone.
The professional, Michel has been committed from the beginning. He was super friendly and attentive, managing to leave me at ease throughout the tour, in addition to being an excellent guide and photographer. So, I recommend Enterprise to all those who want to get this amazing experience; You can hire without fear.

Waiting time for Pic😭😭😭
It’s a tough hike. Unless ur fit. But a nice one through the jungle. No water along, except one stop and none at the top. Average wait for pic is 1.5-2 hours.
Response from the operator: Hi, About the hiking you know before how will be the dificul and we said to bring a 1.5L of water, so when you bring just a little bottle of less than 500ml its hard to help you to aldo I help with everthing you need. About the photos, you said takes 2hours to recive the photos? We delivere until 5 days and we told you abou it how the photos work. A lot of experience evan has a photo inclued. So its not fair to said those 2 things and give a 3 stars.

Unfortunate that our tour was canceled
We chose the 3:00 a.m. hike with Michel and we're ready to go on time. It's unfortunate that he contacted us and said that his car was stolen, so we were not able to do the hike that we had planned so many months for. It was also too late to book any other hikes at that same time for telegraph though because of the last minute cancellation. It was also our last day in Rio so we were very sad that we were not able to do this beautiful hike that we had planned for.
Response from the operator: Unfortunately it really happened. I had never been in this situation before and I apologize. Of course, as we talked on the phone, I was trying to find some other reliable guide so I could take you, but it was complicated at 3am to find someone. I hope that if you ever return to Rio de Janeiro, I can guide you.

Why this scores 55
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Telegraph Stone Trail | Sunrise: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Rio de Janeiro.
How much does Telegraph Stone Trail | Sunrise cost?
+
Prices start at $350 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 Telegraph Stone Trail | Sunrise take?
+
Plan for about 4.5 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 Telegraph Stone Trail | Sunrise worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 55 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 13 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 Telegraph Stone Trail | Sunrise?
+
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 Telegraph Stone Trail | Sunrise suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 18. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 4.5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Telegraph Stone Trail | Sunrise?
+
Around 5 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 4.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Telegraph Stone Trail | Sunrise 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 Rio's Full Day: Selarón Steps, Christ & Sugarloaf – Tickets & Lunch Included, Rio: Tijuca Rainforest Hike, Wildlife, Waterfalls & Caves, Explore the Best of Tijuca Forest – Hike to Peaks, Caves & Falls. 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.
