Description
Rocinha from the inside: History, community and a transformative experience. Part of your booking supports the local community. Drone video, photos with motorcycles, capoeira, dance nights, meals... More options
This is not just a sightseeing tour. It's an opportunity to understand, connect with, and transform your view of Rio de Janeiro.
Our approach is clear: to show the favela beyond stereotypes, so that you experience what you never imagined.
We have options to suit all tastes: the regular sightseeing tour, a tour with a drone video, an evening tour to visit bars and get to know the favela's nightlife, a Funk party tour...
Explore the largest favela in Brazil with local guides and enjoy an authentic, safe, and fun experience. Learn about its history, culture, and the daily life of a community full of life, talent, and resilience.
In addition, this sightseeing tour has a positive impact: part of your booking is reinvested directly in the community, supporting local guides and small initiatives. By participating, you're not just visiting Rocinha… you're also contributing to it.
The meeting point is: São Conrado subway station Exit A (using Uber works well).
