Latest Reviews
Carlos was a great tour guide! Growing up in the favela is whole life and still currently living there, he made sure we were properly educated on both the history and the false stereotypes of favelas.
This tour opened up our eyes into Favela Brazilian culture and how it’s entirely different than what it’s portrayed to be in the media.
The best tour given by Vieira ever. Must do!Ray was the best tour guide ever. This tour really took our week long trip to another level. She had so much knowledge and was so happy to show us her home as if it was our own. It was beautiful to be show a side of Rio that typically doesn’t have a spotlight from the media and the rest of the world. Highlighting the diligence and power of Brazilian people. The hard work and history it took to make a life worth living. I’d highly recommend anyone to book this tour and even more to request Vieira. I can’t wait to come back to Brazil because of this so thank you.
