We are local guides from Rocinha, and we invite you to discover the real heart of our community through authentic experiences, meaningful conversations, and unforgettable moments.
Every story comes directly from people who know Rocinha because they live here.
Tourism should create understanding, appreciation, and respect—not judgment.
We are proud of our roots and committed to sharing them responsibly.
Every experience builds bridges between visitors and our community.
We support local businesses and encourage responsible tourism.
We support local families and give back to the community beyond tourism.
Favela da Rocinha Tour was born from a simple idea: to show the real Rocinha beyond the stereotypes.
We are a team of local residents who love where we come from and believe in the power of connection, respect, and knowledge.
Every tour is more than a walk through the community. It is an opportunity to understand our culture, our challenges, our achievements, and the people who make Rocinha one of the most vibrant places in Rio de Janeiro.
For many people, Rocinha is known only through headlines, movies, or television.
We invite you to experience something completely different.
For us, showing visitors the real Rio also means taking care of the people who make these communities what they are.
Our guides and team are directly connected to Rocinha and understand the importance of supporting local families. Through our work, we help residents in need by donating essential food baskets and contributing to the well-being of people within the community.
We believe tourism can create meaningful connections and have a positive impact beyond the experience itself.
When you choose to explore Rio with us, you are not only discovering a new place—you are also supporting local people and a community that welcomes visitors from around the world.
