Rocinha Favela Tour in Rio de Janeiro
Rocinha Favela Tour in Rio de Janeiro
The Experience
An authentic, socially-conscious experience in the largest favela in Rio, guided by Francesco, an Italian guide who lives in Rio and shares the everyday life of the favela. Ride a mototaxi to the top for a breathtaking view over the whole city - Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain and the beaches - then walk down through the historic alleys into the beating heart of the community: the home of a local family, the gallery of a favela-born graffiti artist, a community football court, and an Italian NGO active for over 20 years. A deep and respectful account of the origins and social structure of the favelas, free of commercial cliches.
