リオ・リトル・アフリカを発見：文化と歴史の旅
説明
フロレンシオの没入型ウォーキング ツアーで、リオ デ ジャネイロの賑やかな港にあるリトル アフリカの隠された物語を巡る変革の旅に出かけましょう。ブラジルで 3 世紀にわたって奴隷化された 400 万人以上のアフリカ人が残した奥深い遺産を掘り下げてみましょう。ブラジルでは、リオが 19 世紀に世界的なアフリカ人奴隷貿易の中心地として台頭し、現代の奴隷化された人々の 5 人に 1 人がブラジルで受け入れられました。 今日、この豊かな遺産の響きはブラジル全土に響き渡り、人口の半数以上が黒人であることを誇りに思っています。サンバの脈動するリズムからカーニバルの万華鏡の色彩、アフリカ系ブラジル料理の魅惑的な味わいからアフリカの影響を受けた音楽の精神的なビートまで、アフリカ文化の活気に満ちたタペストリーがブラジルの生活そのものに織り込まれています。 フロレンシオと一緒に、時間と文化を巡る忘れられない旅に出かけましょう。そこでは過去が生き返り、リトル アフリカの遺産がインスピレーションと魅力を与え続けています。

旅程
「ホテルへのお迎えなし」の集合場所 - リオ美術館 (MAR)。博物館は、Praça Mauá, 5 - Centro, Rio de Janeiro にあります。
ラルゴ ダ プライーニャには、メルセデス洗礼者像があります。彼女は、1940 年代後半にリオデジャネイロ市立劇場バレエ団に登録した最初のアフリカ系ブラジル人バレエ ダンサーでした。楽しいアイスビール、サンバ、黒人音楽が常に漂っています。
次に、私たちの旅は、都市部のカリオカ サンバの歴史が深く息づくリオの崇拝の地、ペドラ ド サルへ向かいます。その重要性は、ポルトガルから輸入された塩を陸揚げするために苦労して働いた奴隷化されたアフリカ人にまで遡り、それがその名前の由来です。これらの回復力のある人々は、この地域を特徴づける階段も丹念に彫り、1800 年代後半に最初のランチョス カーニバル、アフォックスの行列、神聖な空間が出現する舞台を整えました。 勤勉な日々を終えたサンビスタ（サンバミュージシャン）や沿岸労働者たちはバイーアのおばさんたちの家に集まり、活気に満ちたサンバサークルを形成しました。ピクシンギーニャなどの著名な人物も定期的に出席し、音楽表現の豊かなタペストリーに貢献しました。今日、ペドラ ド サルはサンバ サークルや文化集会の重要な拠点であり続け、アフリカ系ブラジル人の伝統と芸術表現の拠点としての遺産を継承しています。
リオデジャネイロの世界遺産であるカイス ド ヴァロンゴは、奴隷化されたアフリカ人を上陸させるために 1811 年に建設された古い石造りの埠頭です。約90万人のアフリカ人がヴァロンゴ経由で南米に到着したと推定されている。この遺跡にはいくつかの考古学的な層があり、アフリカ人奴隷がアメリカ大陸に到着したことを示す最も重要な物的証拠です。
民族の壁画は、リオデジャネイロのゾーナ ポルトゥアーリア (サウデ) にある 3,000 平方メートルの絵画です。 2016 年のオリンピックのために作成され、各大陸から 1 人ずつ、さまざまな部族から 5 人の代表者が参加しています。世界の多様性を代表するために、フリ族、ムルシ族、カレン族、スーピ族、タパジョス族が選ばれました。この壁画は、3,000 本以上のスプレー缶、700 リットルの色絵の具、そして背景に 1,800 リットルの白絵の具を使用し、完成までに 12 時間交代で 2 か月の作業を要しました。
MUHCABの後、私たちは、奴隷としてこの街に連れてこられたアフリカ人の記憶を称えるリオデジャネイロの博物館兼考古学遺跡であるIPNに向かって歩きます。 「ニュー黒人墓地」の敷地内にあり、2005 年以来、アフリカ系の人々の歴史と文化に関する文化活動やワークショップを提供しています。この博物館は、2009 年から国によって認められ、文化空間に指定されています。 。
MUHCABは、世界遺産バロンゴ埠頭周辺のリトルアフリカにある博物館です。この地域最大の奴隷化されたアフリカ人の到着、ブラジルにおける黒人肯定の画期的な出来事、アフリカ系ブラジル人文化の発展、そしてブラジルの黒人が直面する現代の問題について語ります。

Immersive experience into the history and culture of the city. I was struck by the resilience of the people and the evolution of the city
If you’re ever in Rio, please book this tour. Our tour guide carol was absolutely amazing!!! She’s very knowledgeable, organized and has such a sweet spirit. We learned so much about the history of Brasil and Carol also shared a little bit about her own personal background. Whenever I’m in Rio, I will definitely book again with her. Please ask for Carol when you book. Thank you again, Carol and team for putting together such an amazing tour.
It’s the history and culture you didn’t know. On this tour you listen, you learn and you feel the ancestors…a must do!
Dear Kellie, Thank you so much for your beautiful and powerful review. Your words touched us deeply. “You listen, you learn, and you feel the ancestors” captures the heart of what we hope guests experience on our Discover Rio Little Africa journey. This tour is about more than visiting historical sites. It is about honoring memory, recognizing resilience, and connecting with the Afro-Brazilian history and culture that shaped Rio de Janeiro and Brazil in such profound ways. We are truly grateful that this experience resonated with you. Thank you for recommending it as a must-do in Rio. It was an honor to welcome you, and we hope to see you again in Brazil for more meaningful private and bespoke cultural experiences with Florencios Tours & Travel. With gratitude, Damiana Silva Founder | Florencios Tours & Travel Connecting Cultures. Creating Memories.
This is a wonderful, must do tour while in Rio!! Our stops at museums, important statues, the famous ethnicities wall and Pedra do Sal are experiences that our group will always remember! Ana Julia was an expert and exceptional tour guide. She is a passionate ambassador for Brazil and Rio! She offered tremendous insight that helped us to better appreciate the rich culture, diversity, fantastic experiences that Rio has to offer today. We asked a lot of questions about the history and struggles, similar to the US, both past and present. The tour company, Florencios Tour, was easy to reach via WhatsApp, provided us with timely information regarding how to meet our guide. We appreciated the timely pickup, drop off and safe ride with the professional limo driver.

The tour was the highlight of my trip

Our group of 18 friends and family arrived in Rio as part of the Dave Koz Cruise. My mother discovered Florencios Tours & Travels and connected directly with the owner, Damiana. As fate would have it, she didn't just book us a tour — she introduced Damiana to the entire Dave Koz Cruise community. We were the first cruise ship group to receive the full Florencios experience. We would not be the last. Several dozen other Dave Koz cruisers followed. Way to go, Mom. By the time we confirmed our booking, Damiana felt less like a tour company owner and more like a friend my mom had known for years. That kind of warmth sets a tone — and it carried into every single moment of the day. Our guide was Larissa, with Lucas alongside her to help navigate the group. Larissa is extraordinary. She is energetic, deeply knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about what she does. She didn't just show us places — she told us their stories. From the excavated auction site to the museum, she kept our group engaged with thoughtful questions and a command of Black African history, culture, and celebration that made everything feel alive and meaningful. Then came the carnival site — and Julia. To experience carnival from the inside of the process is something most cruisers never get to do. Our group tried on costumes, danced, and played instruments alongside actual carnival artists. Not as observers. As participants. The kind of moment you cannot manufacture and cannot forget. If you are looking for a tour that centers the Black African diaspora experience — its history, its traditions, its joy — with intelligence, intention, and heart, this is it. Not a footnote. Not a detour. The main event. Damiana, Larissa, Lucas, and Julia: thank you for making Rio unforgettable in all the right ways. This is exactly the kind of experience that stays with you long after the ship has sailed.
Dear Jacqueline’s daughter, 🤗 Thank you so much for this beautiful and heartfelt review. Reading your words truly moved us. Your mother’s trust, kindness, and enthusiasm opened a very special door for Florencios Tours & Travel. Because of her, we had the honor of welcoming not only your family and friends, but also many wonderful guests from the Dave Koz Cruise community. That moment will always be part of our story, and we are deeply grateful to her for believing in us and helping introduce our work to such a meaningful group of travelers. We are so happy to know that the experience felt personal, intentional, and unforgettable. This is exactly what we hope to create through our Little Africa journey: not just a tour, but a connection with the history, resilience, culture, and joy of the Black African diaspora in Rio de Janeiro. Your kind words about Larissa, Lucas, and Julia mean so much. Larissa brings knowledge and passion to every story she shares, Lucas helped care for the group with attention and support, and Julia helped make the Carnival experience come alive in such an authentic and joyful way. We will proudly share your message with them. Thank you for recognizing the heart behind our work. It was an honor to welcome your family, your friends, and your mother’s beautiful energy in Rio. We truly hope to welcome you, your family, and friends back to Brazil again — not only for Little Africa, but also to experience the many other Rio must-see private tours and bespoke cultural experiences we lovingly curate. May the memories created that day continue to travel with you long after the ship has sailed. With deep gratitude, Damiana Silva Founder | Florencios Tours & Travel Connecting Cultures. Creating Memories.
My family and I had the privilege of having Carolina as our tour guide for two days while we were in Rio De Janeiro. Carolina was friendly, approachable, and extremely knowledgeable of Rio De Janeiro. She ensured that we saw all of the top sights. She took us to see Christ the Redeemer before the crowds got there. Allowing us plenty of time to enjoy the site and take good pictures. Carolina took us to Frontera Restaurant where we enjoyed amazing local foods. We were allowed time to shop. Overall she made our visit to Rio De Janeiro an unforgettable experience. We made memories that I shall not soon forget.
Thank you so much for your beautiful review. We are truly happy to know that you and your family had such an unforgettable experience exploring the best of Rio de Janeiro with Carolina. It means a lot to us that she helped you enjoy the city with comfort, good timing, local insight, and care. Carolina is friendly, knowledgeable, and very attentive to the flow of each private experience. We are especially glad that she was able to take you to Christ the Redeemer before the crowds, giving your family enough time to enjoy the site, take beautiful photos, and truly appreciate one of Rio’s most iconic landmarks. We are also happy that you enjoyed the local food at Frontera Restaurant, had time for shopping, and were able to experience a meaningful combination of Rio’s highlights during your visit. Thank you for trusting Florencios Tours & Travel with your family’s time in Rio. Creating memories that stay with our guests long after the tour is exactly what we hope for. We would be delighted to welcome you and your family back to Brazil for more private and bespoke experiences in Rio. With gratitude, Damiana Silva Founder | Florencios Tours & Travel Connecting Cultures. Creating Memories.
We never went because the tour guide changed the location without notifying us. When we arrived at the meeting point no one was there. Seeing a refund now!
Dear Michelle, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I am truly sorry for the frustration and disappointment you experienced. Because most guests on that date were arriving from the Celebrity Equinox cruise, we adjusted the meeting point to better accommodate cruise passengers and sent an email in advance on March 15, 2026 with the updated tour details. Our intention was to make the experience easier for guests, never to cause confusion. That said, I completely understand how upsetting it must have been to arrive at the expected meeting point and not find our team there. Please accept my sincere apologies for the inconvenience and the impact this had on your day in Rio. Your refund has now been fully processed. We are also reviewing our communication procedures internally to help ensure situations like this are avoided in the future. Michelle, we truly regret that we missed the opportunity to welcome you and share the history and cultural significance of Little Africa with you. Thank you again for your feedback — it helps us improve. Warm regards, Damiana Silva Florencios Tours & Travel

When it comes to the best tour guide in Rio, look no farther than Larissa! From the start, she was kind, professional, and knowledgeable. A heart of gold and a commitment to justice, she transported us through time and took us on a journey of Afro Brazilian history. From the origination of Quilombos to learning the truth about where the word “Favela” comes from. She was a joy to learn from and was truly a light on our trip to Little Africa.
Dear guest, Thank you so much for this beautiful review and for your generous words about Larissa.

We are delighted to know that she helped transport you through time and made Afro-Brazilian history feel alive, powerful, and deeply connected. From the history of quilombos to the origins of the word “favela,” these stories are essential to understanding Rio beyond the surface. Thank you for recognizing the importance of this journey and for allowing Florencios Tours & Travel to share it with you. We will proudly share your words with Larissa. She will be so happy to know she was a light on your trip to Little Africa. We hope to welcome you back to Brazil for more private and bespoke cultural experiences in Rio.
