I did the 10-day Mount Roraima trek (don't do fewer days if you can help it) with them, and everything, starting with the service via WhatsApp, was beyond words. They made all the trip information clear and answered all my questions almost instantly. I did the trek with Hernandez, a guide with years of experience and competence, and you can see he loves what he does. The food on the expedition was plentiful and delicious. Zero hassle. I recommend the agency!

I think I simply found the best tourism company. The briefing was wonderful, the trip was perfect, the guides were fully prepared, and Bruno's service, from the very first moment on WhatsApp, made all the difference. Thank you always for helping me live incredible moments on the Mountain.

Without a doubt the best trekking experience of my life! Everything, from the very first contact to the end, when we got back to the hotels, was completely professional. This wasn't just a trip — it was a trekking expedition into the ancient world of Makunaíma. I felt like I'd stepped into another dimension, going back two billion years in time and marveling at sedimentary formations hundreds of millions of years old. I could feel the mountain's presence with every step, from the start of the trail to its base, the climb to the summit, and the walks across the plateau. A magical, enchanting place. It raised my bar for what a travel agency's service should look like, and I'm really grateful for that. Thank you!

A one-of-a-kind experience. From the very first contact, I was well looked after and got all the information I needed. They were always clear about how demanding the expedition would be. Everything was really well planned, and from the briefing to the way back, all I can do is thank the team — Ale for the customer service, Magno for the briefing and coordination, Tensing, who was an amazing guide, and the whole support crew involved. I recommend it to anyone who dreams of seeing Mount Roraima, a unique and incredible place.

Luciana

Top marks from start to finish. Ale patiently and quickly answered my endless questions. Luiz handled the arrival and departure transfers. Magno ran the pre-trek briefing and the post-trek welcome back. Luisito was an incredible guide, full of stories, attention, patience, and energy! A perfect trip!

What you need to know about Mount Roraima tours in Brazil

Mount Roraima is the highest of the tepuis—the flat-topped table mountains of the Gran Sabana—rising about 2,800 m where Brazil, Venezuela, and Guyana meet. Its sheer cliffs and cloud-wrapped plateau inspired Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Lost World in 1912, and the summit still looks the part.

Mount Roraima National Park and the Brazilian side

The mountain sits on a triple border, and each country protects its own share. On the Brazilian side, Mount Roraima National Park covers roughly 116,000 hectares in the municipality of Uiramutã, in the far north of Roraima, Brazil, and is managed by ICMBio. On the Venezuelan side, the tepui falls inside Canaima National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

That split matters when you plan. The Brazilian park protects the mountain’s eastern flank, but there is no trail to the summit from that side—the only established route up is Venezuelan, starting from the Indigenous village of Paraitepuy. Most travelers still begin in Brazil, flying into Boa Vista and crossing the border from there.

Mount Roraima treks (8 to 10 days)

Reaching the summit takes a demanding multi-day trek. Most expeditions run 8 to 10 days (the minimum is around 6), which buys you 3 to 5 nights on the plateau instead of a rushed climb up and straight back down. The full route covers about 90 km, crossing rivers and open savanna before the wall of the tepui.

The ascent follows La Rampa, a natural ledge angling up the cliff face. There is no technical climbing and no ropes, but the day is long and steep. Indigenous Pemón guides and porters handle the logistics, carry the main loads, and cook every meal on the mountain.

The Lost World plateau: Valley of Crystals & Lake Gladys

On top, cross black sandstone shaped into towers and arches; quartz fields known as the Valley of Crystals; clear natural pools travelers call the jacuzzis; the Guardians of the Mountain; rock formations, and the La Ventana viewpoint. Plants grow up here that exist nowhere else on Earth.

Longer Roraima tours also reach the Valley of the Lost World, the still water of Lake Gladys, and the triple-border marker where Brazil, Venezuela, and Guyana meet.

Who these Mount Roraima tours are for

Mount Roraima treks suit travelers who are comfortable walking all day with a daypack, sleeping in a tent, and handling cold, wet weather—plateau temperatures sit between 5 and 12°C year-round.

No technical climbing skills are required for the ascent. While Mount Roraima treks demand solid physical fitness to handle consecutive long days, the summit rewards fit, adventurous trekkers with a landscape found nowhere else on Earth.
