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 famous local touristic point, and then we walk down the hill to the São Conrado subway station where the tourists can pick to go back through subway or uber.
Straightforward walking from point A to B, sightseeing, pictures, and explanations about the Favela
As a local, my tour is real and far from scripted or artificial!
Meeting point: Open in Google Maps
How to find me: Uber recommended. The meeting point is Centro Municipal de Saúde Dr Albert Sabin. Address: Estr. da Gávea, 250 - Gávea, Rio de Janeiro.

The communication with Luiz was at the begin very good. After we met him he explained us the rules. Then we started walking down the favela. Unfortunately it was only just walking. He didn't provide any information about the neighbourhood... After only 30min the tour ended. I can't understand why the other people share a totally different experience here :/
Luiz is an amazing guy, very flexible. Knows every corner of the neighbourhood. As he explained more and more about the favella we were managed to put aside our prejudice and fears. Thanks for the amazing tour. Highly recommended.
Luiz is a great guide. He speaks very well English. Thanks to him, we learned a lot about favelas. Don’t be afraid: it’s a very sefty tour. A must do in Rio !
