Explore Favela Santa Marta as an open-air gallery: see the graffiti-covered walls, ride the cable car, visit the Michael Jackson rooftop, and interact with the children on the field.
Community tourism, living culture and social impact in Favela Santa Marta
Enjoy a cultural and human immersion in Morro do Santa Marta, in Botafogo, led by a licensed local guide who experiences the daily life of the community. More than a sightseeing tour, this is a socially impactful experience that connects visitors directly with the neighborhood's residents, entrepreneurs and artists.
The experience begins at the access point to the funicular, the electric cable car used daily by residents to get around the hillside. Then, the hike turns the route into a visit to an open-air gallery, where alleys and lanes showcase graffiti-covered walls and street art pieces that depict the neighborhood's history and identity.
The itinerary includes a special visit to the rehearsal hall of the Mocidade Unida do Santa Marta samba school, where you can admire the walls decorated by local artists in tribute to the community's great samba stars. Along the way, we'll pass by small businesses and local craft shops, where visitors have the opportunity to buy souvenirs handmade by residents, generating direct income and strengthening the favela's economy.
The group also stops at the soccer field to interact with young people and experience the neighborhood's sports routine. The tour continues to the famous rooftop from the music video "They Don't Care About Us," where the statue and mural honoring Michael Jackson are located. Here, the group watches a samba drum performance by children and young people from the community itself.
From the highest points of the hill, the itinerary offers a complete panoramic view of Rio de Janeiro's South Zone, including Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain and Botafogo Bay. By choosing this tour, you are engaging in sustainable and conscious tourism, making a real contribution to local transformation and development.
