Great tour if you want an insight of a Rio favela. From start to end, it was professionally handed. Great communication on WhatsApp to confirm all the details. We were only 4 with our guide Ricardo. Being a local to the Favela, he took us right away from the tourists who just head to the bars at the top. He was able to tell us about the history of favelas and answer all our questions in details. We felt safe at all time ( although the motorbike ride is quite scary). However we needed to respect that sometimes we are not allowed to take photos but plenty of times we could. Ricardo is the most friendly guide and able to share his knowledge. We highly recommend this tour!
Hey, thank you so much for this review! We always do our very best to respond on time and be as clear as possible. Anyone booking here with Experience Rio will be taken care of, especially if they communicate clearly on what they want and are respectful to our work. Take care Alain
Amazing tour guide and amazing tour. Ricardo did a fantastic job explaining the history and life in Vidigal. This totally changed my views of favela. I'd recommend everyone coming to Rio do it.
Hey there. Thank you so much for your review!! I do want to state that I personally believe Favela tourism is something very unethical and questionable. Especially with all of these tours doing drone shots taking people to bars and clubs, which really don't reflect the reality nor the culture of the favela. Most of these tours don't work with social projects or actually bring long lasting benefit into the community. So I appreciate you doing our tour which focuses on education, history and impact in the favela. Unfortunately, the world has become really shallow, but it's always nice to have a few good tourists who want to see something in an ethical and impactful way.
Great experience! In the heart of the favelas, one of the best known, close to the sea, breathtaking landscape and total immersion!! Ricardo, local guide is full of surprises and historical, cultural knowledge... he speaks English with excellence, Spanish too! It is an extremely interesting and kind guide!! I highly recommend this experience, this trip to the heart of favelas and safely!!
This was an amazing tour and our guide, Rodrigues, was very dedicated and good. Very interesting stories about the life of the people living in the favelas. If you are a bit uncertain about safety going here I can assure you it is most likely safer then the rest of the beautiful city of Rio
Thank you guys very much for the review. Rodrigo is a great young man and has been working with us for several years now. Our goal is to uplift locals in the community, fund a few excellent social projects and educate the tourists in a way that is eye opening, respectful and responsible. Thank you again!
This was an exceptional tour and Rodrigo was a wonderful teacher, not just a guide. Mindblowing experience
This tour of Vidigal was both beautiful and deeply touching. Rodrigo is not only a very engaged, knowledgeable and generous guide, he also manages to tell the story of the favela, its history and the current political situation from the point of view of those who live there in a way that resonates across national and cultural boundaries. This is simply unforgettable and we will carry this experience in our hearts for a very long time.
Absolutely love to see these type of comments and reviews! Rodrigo is a fantastic tour guide, his professionalism is exceptional. He exerts such passion through his work and I'm super proud to have him on our team! Thank you!
Our favela tour with Ricardo was unforgettable. From the moment we started, we rode up speeding on the back of a moto bike, he made us feel safe and welcomed, guiding us with warmth and genuine care. His explanations weren’t just facts — they were stories that brought the community to life. His passion and respect for the favela and its people were clear in every word. We didn’t just “see” a favela, we felt it. We walked through its streets, met its people, and left with a deeper understanding of the culture, challenges, and incredible resilience of the community. Ricardo’s excellent English, bright energy, and kindness made the experience not only informative but truly touching. It was more than a tour — it was a meaningful connection, one that we will carry with us.
Fantastic! This is exactly our goal and i'm super glad to receive such commentary about our work, tour and guides.. Ricardo is an absolutely wonderful young man!
I highly recommend this favela tour with Rodrigo—it was one of the most memorable and insightful experiences of my trip to Rio! Rodrigo is an exceptional guide—knowledgeable, respectful, and deeply passionate about sharing the real story of the favelas. His connection with the community made the tour feel authentic and safe, while his storytelling brought the history, culture, and daily life of the area to life. We visited vibrant streets, met friendly locals, and learned about the challenges and resilience of the community. Rodrigo answered all our questions with honesty and warmth, making the experience both educational and deeply human. The views were breathtaking, but the real highlight was gaining a deeper understanding of a place often misunderstood by outsiders. If you want to see a different side of Rio with a guide who truly cares, book this tour with Rodrigo or Henry ! 100% worth it—don’t miss it!
I can’t even explain how much we learned in this trip thanks to Rodrigo. I cannot recommend more. This tour was enriching, fun and educational. We also had some amazing snacks and enjoyed a moto ride up the favela.
I think this tour is meant to be a learning experience and you will get it. Worth taking if you want to get the real about the favelas
That is exactly correct! In fact, we are one of the few agencies that truly give back 💪🤝🇧🇷. When someone is doing this type of tour, they should ask first what said agency does for the community. This is extremely important. So thank you for the review and comment!
