An interesting tour. Seeing how the housing was constructed, sometimes with shipping containers was fascinating. I would like to have had more contact with the residents, though.

This tour was fantastic! Learning about the Favela was very interesting and seeing it firsthand was even more amazing!

I absolutely loved it! Ian was great, he knew everyone in the favelas, which made us feel very comfortable. Very friendly people and they even let us come into their house to get a great view on the roof. I recommend it!

Great guide. Beautiful views and very informative.

Everyone who goes to Rio should take this tour. You can't understand Rio without visiting a favela. Our tour guide was absolutely great. Only be aware that there are many uneven steps without rails to go down. My tour guide helped me down them.

I'm so upset with this booking! The website said that the favela tour would be in Santa Marta, we actually went to favela rocinha area ! And when o asked the tour guid about it she said that they only go to rocinha ! Moreover our guide didn't speak English very well so we missed out a lot of facts !

This tour was amazing!

This gives you insight into the other side of Rio. Some sad sights but the favela has a vibrant culture of its own. One really needs to see a favela. Our guide David was great.

This was a window to the world of Rio one would not know if the traveller did not take this tour. What an experience! Somewhat arduous due to the steep hills and multple, rough climbs and steps. But well worth the effort. Views are wonderful!

Great way to see the "other side" of Rio. We were warned that it was very scary. However it was not that bad. The guide took us to the top of a house where you have an excellent view of the favela with the skyscrapers in the back ground. Overall, it was worthwhile and a good experience.
