HIGHLIGHTS
- A Genuine and Safe Experience in a Favela in Rio
- Personal and knowledgeable Guide
Our Walking Tour usually takes about 3 hours. Your price covers your transportation and a monetary contribution to the favela community. Visiting a favela with us is safe and will give you a new perspective on Rio.
We do not operate a “zoo-tour” in jeeps like some of the other tour companies. We focus on a genuine experience with the aim to educate our guests about the favelas which are such a big part of life in Rio. Our transport is a Mini Bus that will take you to the Favela. The guide will inform you of the history of the favela as well as the social and economic challenges found here. As the tour groups are small you will be able to meet some of the locals inside the favela and hear their stories.
This is an insightful and 100% safe tour giving you new perspectives on life, and on Rio.
