Overview of the tour in Rio de Janeiro

An unique experience! Join me on an unforgettable trip inside the largest Favela in Brazil. Through alleys and streets, see and learn about our history and social culture, all while going through unique locations!

Dangerous? Not quite! Despite the claims of the Media and people who never actually visited us, the Rocinha Favela is one of the safest places in Rio. Especially during local tour schedules! Have a 100% safe walk in a living urban history site with a local guide who is there to both guide and take care of you.

What makes Lucky Tour different? The biggest difference between Lucky Tour and other general Tour Agencies it's that your trip is made with a local guide, born and raised inside the Favela, that takes you through places that most Guides won't. As well as giving you precise local information that you won't find with agencies or Wikipedia.

Address: Estr. da Gávea, 250 - Gávea, Rio de Janeiro.
Local Public Hospital, right at it's front. I'll be waiting using a Red or Blue mask, mostly for the tourists to recognize me, the masks themselves are not mandatory. impossible to miss.

Things to note

Hello there, my name is Luiz, a local tour guide who was born and raised in the largest favela in South America! I speak fluent English and am ready to take you through this unique neighborhood and answer all your questions! The tours start at an easy to access meeting point and from there, the tourists won't just take pictures and sightsee as they will also enter the local Favela and see the real reality of the place, not what the media portrays.

The tours start at top of the Favela, a safe point, and then we walk down the hill to the São Conrado subway station where the tourists can pick the subway to go back or uber. Straightforward walking from point A to B, sightseeing, pictures, and explanations about the Favela.
