What's a favela tour?


If you take the Rocinha Favela Tour for instance, you will walk into the daily life of the local people living in Rocinha, visit the homes of some residents, see some of the local nurseries and schools, walk through the streets and the local market in Rocinha, and visit the Hall of the School of Samba Academy of Rocinha with one of our local guides who come from the favela themselves and know every bit of it.

In the center of Rocinha called Largo do Boadeiro, there is a fair with free food, drinks and items of handicrafts from the North and North-East of Brazil, the regions where most of the Rocinha residents originally come from.
