Tour Notes
- Jeep Tour was created in 1992 to take participants of the ECO92 to visit the largest urban forest in the world - The Tijuca Rain Forest. From there on, we continue showing and teaching the possibility of having tourism together with nature preservation. Jeep Tour exists to show an alternative side of Rio de Janeiro, the most beautiful and eclectic city in Brazil. Tours in convertible jeeps lead you to the contrast between the sea and the mountains of rain forest and between luxurious condos and slums.
