Description about the Rocinha Private Favela Tour
Our 3-Hour Private Favela Walking Tour focuses on a genuine experience with the aim to educate our private guests about the favelas which are such a big part of life in Rio. On top of that, you will explore the Brazilian food which is also part of our culture. There are hundreds of local restaurants in Rocinha where you will be able to try our local Brazilian food inside Rocinha Favela. Our tour guide will meet you at your hotel and will head to Rocinha Favela with our private car.
Once you have reached the favela, our tour is 100% walking downhill. We always recommend you to come with comfortable shoes and carry a bottle of water along with you. Rocinha Favela is huge and full of uneven steps – be aware of it. There are hundreds of motor taxis riding up and down hill in order to make a living apart from the regular day to day businesses inside Rocinha
The Typical Brazilian food
Brazilian cuisine bursts with influences from Portugal, African slaves, indigenous cultures, and other European, South American, and Asian countries. Following the abolition of slavery in 1888, Brazil invited Europeans and Japanese immigrants to work on coffee plantations across the country. From the northern Amazon to the southern pampas, you’ll encounter a wide range of Brazilian dishes reflecting this rich, multicultural heritage.
