A very well organized visit. Our guide Fabio was very friendly and considerate. The landscapes are splendid and our efforts on the climb are more than rewarded by a 360 degree view of Sao Paulo which is magnificent. Crossing the forest will give you the opportunity - with a little luck (which we had) - to observe several families of monkeys. To do absolutely if you go to Sao Paulo.
