Tour local de Rocinha
Descripción
Este tour es guiado por alguien que nació y creció en Rocinha y ha pasado más de una década caminando por estas calles con visitantes. La diferencia no es el acceso por novedad, sino el contexto. En lugar de paradas con guion o encuadres dramáticos, el foco está en cómo funciona realmente la favela : su disposición, rutinas diarias, dinámica social, e historia como barrio vivo. La ruta sigue lugares que tienen sentido localmente, guiados por la familiaridad en lugar del rendimiento. Debido a que esta es una experiencia guiada localmente, para grupos pequeños, el recorrido se mueve a un ritmo humano. Las preguntas son bienvenidas, las conversaciones son abiertas y las explicaciones provienen de la experiencia vivida, no de la investigación de segunda mano o de narrativas ensayadas. No se trata de vender peligro, pobreza o espectáculo. Se trata de entender a Rocinha como es, guiada por alguien que pertenece aquí.

An Eye-Opening and Truly Authentic Experience in Rocinha Favela. I felt completely safe the entire time. Luiz was attentive, stayed with us closely, and made sure the small group of 6 moved smoothly.
My partner and I did this tour with Luiz a while ago and it is one of the best experiences I remember from Brazil. We were looking for a guided walk and led by a local person to learn for real. I highly recommend it!!
Thank you so much!! I’m really glad you guys enjoyed the tour, it was a pleasure showing you around 😊 That means a lot to me, seriously. Hope you had an amazing time in Brazil overall, and you’re always welcome back!
Our guide was so friendly and informative. We had a really good time walking around the area and learning about the history and present.
Luiz was a great tour guide; he took care of us the whole time. He knows a lot about trees and told us many interesting things.
I had amazing time at the tour, Luis was great tour guide. I would recommend it i to anyone that's staying in Rio, it's definitely worth it.
Thank you for joining the tour and for taking the time to leave a review. I’m really glad you enjoyed the experience and appreciated the local perspective. Wishing you a great rest of your time in Rio!
Luiz was excellent - the tour was educational, we felt safe and enjoyed it very much. Strongly recommend!
We had an amazing tour of Rocinha led by Luiz. He was exceptionally knowledgeable, patient, and passionate, making us feel deeply connected to the vibrant culture and history of the favela. Everything was perfectly organized, and Luiz went above and beyond to ensure a memorable experience. Highly recommend this tour with Luiz for an authentic and enriching exploration. Five stars!
Our guide was so informative and nice to tour with. He even asked if we would wait a little for another couple who were running late. We waited and waited but in the end we had to leave. I believe the lady became very abusive on text and this was so unfair to our guide as we all waited for some time. It was their duty to turn up on time like we did. Anything she says in a review I would ignore, it is unjustified! He is brilliant, kind and patient.
I highly recommend this tour to anyone staying in Rio. We were a bit hesitant booking this tour but our guide luiz put our minds at rest and opened our eyes on life in a favela. I guarantee you will truly see what life is really like instead of what the films show you! I'd recommend doing a favela tour with a local guide, luiz was very knowledgeable and open to answering any questions we had. Thanks luiz!
This was the best tour and the guide is excellent. He was knowledgeable and tour was the right amount of time. I highly recommend Luis!!!!
