Overview

Visiting the Rocinha favela, one of Rio's hundreds of “favelas” (the Brazilian term for a slum or shantytown) and the largest in the country, is a local experience that gives you the chance to see Brazil from another point of view. With a resident guide, take a non-intrusive walking tour to learn about daily life in the favela and gain insight into the challenges these communities face.

When your tour is finished our driver will be heading back to Copacabana area crossing the beaches of Leblon and Ipanema, therefore you must inform our tour guide where you are staying so we can make sure you are dropped off as close as possible to your hotel.

Duration of our tour including pickup and drop off is around 3 hours.
