Once in a lifetime

Today we went to Favela Party and had a great experience from start to finish. Big respect to Tom, the owner, for creating such a strong experience, but a special mention has to go to Marlon. Marlon was professional, respectful, welcoming and made us feel comfortable throughout the whole experience.…

First let me say if you are not sure about this experience, do not hesitate to book! My wife and two friends from NC booked this bar hop and experience. It was well worth the money and nicely organized! 10 out of 10! We were safe and throughly enjoyed ourselves! Our guides knew the community and gav…

I really enjoyed my experience on the favela tour. We spent a great amount of time at each location, which gave us the opportunity to really learn about the culture, take pictures, and fully enjoy the experience. A special shoutout to Carol and Rodrigo! They were both very knowledgeable about the cu…

Absolutely incredible experience! The favela tour was easily one of the highlights of my time in Rio.

Once in a lifetime

Amazing! The hosts were very kind and made me feel very welcomed!!! People in RIO really know how to PARTY!!! Highly recommend if you want to meet new people!

Guilherme is the best host and one of the happiest, most energetic people I've met in Rio. Without him, our night wouldn't have been nearly as amazing! He made sure everyone was having a great time and introduced us to many people — everyone was incredibly welcoming. I would definitely do it again!…

An incredible experience — something completely new, with great guides. Rarely have I seen someone who radiates such enthusiasm, enjoyment of their work, and warmth as Guilherme! Lidson is also extremely likeable and very knowledgeable; you feel very safe with the two of them. The bars are great, an…

Once in a lifetime

Tom is the man! He took us to 3 great bars I never would have found on my own. The last one was a 3 story upscale bar with dope music to vibe to. He made it easy to connect even tho I showed up a little late. We had an amazing time!

I highly recommend this experience if you are coming here and you are a solo traveler! The experience was very fun being able to see the live samba band, but then also seeing the transition into different types of music! The people I met on the tour were great and so was Tom! Next time I come back t…

This was the best way to bring in my birthday as a solo traveler. I met some nice people and danced the night away. Tom made the best host. Felt super safe!!

I had the best night at Pedra! Solo travelling and made some amazing friends from that night thanks to Tom! Will 100% go again

Once in a lifetime

I had a great night with Gabriel and Sherlock. They are warm hosts, with many surprises for us throughout the night. And the venue is cozy with incredible views. Juicy steak and other meats. So glad I came!

Attending the Flamengo football match was an absolutely amazing experience and something that anyone visiting Rio should definitely tick off their bucket list. The atmosphere was incredible, the passion of the fans was unforgettable, and it was one of the highlights of my trip. Lidson was amazing fr…

I had so much fun at the match! I loved how the locals brought so much energy! I would love to see different teams play in the future! 10/10 recommend!

I had an amazing experience on this private guided tour of Rio de Janeiro. The whole day was very well organized, starting with a convenient hotel pickup and ending with a drop-off back at the hotel. Visiting Christ the Redeemer was definitely one of the highlights, with incredible views over the ci…

A experiência mais incrível que eu já tive na minha vida!!! Esse passeio vale muito a pena, com certeza é o melhor passeio do Rio de Janeiro. Passamos pela orla do Rio, da praia do recreio até Copacabana. Depois seguimos pro tão esperado: o Cristo Redentor 😍 E por fim, ainda tivemos a vista deslumb…

Super gave ervaring

I thoroughly enjoyed this experience with Milla and Rodrigo. They were both attentive and willing to take breaks when needed, always making sure no one was left behind. Extremely lovely guides! Highly recommend.

The hike was a perfect way to start the day in Rio. The trail was manageable and the views along the way were already beautiful, but reaching the top for sunrise was definitely the highlight. Seeing Rio wake up with the beaches, mountains and coastline below was a memorable experience. The guide was…

This was an incredible and meaningful experience! Rodrigo was knowledgeable, personable, passionate, and professional. Because he is from the community, he shared his neighborhood and culture with an authenticity that made the tour truly special. His personal connection to the community brought the…

I booked a favela tour with this company, and it was honestly one of the best experiences of my life. Our guide, Gabriel, was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and made sure we always knew what was happening throughout the tour. As a solo female traveler, safety is very impo…

Today’s tour was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Rio, and Gabriel is the reason why. From the very beginning he was punctual, kind, welcoming, and always made us feel safe and comfortable. His knowledge of the favelas, their history, and culture was outstanding. He answered every question…

Once in a lifetime

What an awesomely unique experience! Had such an amazing time with the tour guides and group. We explored the ins and outs of Rocinha and learned so much about the culture and history of the favela from Leroy and Marciel. They brought us to different local exhibitions like capoeira (which made me te…

Truly unique experience and learned so much about the history and everything about community. The whole tour was safe and well organized. Will definitely have other tours guided by Tom and his colleagues in favela.

Leonardo lives in the Favela and knows all about it. He’s enthusiastic, a quick learner, and wants to please. By participating in these tours we are helping these young people find a better way to make a living. The tour involves a motorcycle ride which was very exciting and honestly the highlight!…

We had an amazing experience with Tom's tour company and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Rio! Both the Favela Tour and the Night Favela Party Tour were unforgettable — we booked the night tour twice because we loved it so much. Guilherme was incredible, so welcoming and fun. Kimberly (d…

The experience of touring the Rocinha favela with Leroy is unmatched. The guides spoke English and Spanish, and they even had a group who spoke French as well who was easily accommodated. Riding the moto taxi up the hills of the favela had my adrenaline pumping like never before! It's a bit scary bu…

More Than a Tour — A Real Connection to Rocinha

This tour is absolutely fantastic! Emma, Leroy, and Mateus really take the time to make sure you have a great experience from start to finish. The drone video was such a wonderful keepsake — such a nice way to remember the day. I also really appreciated how available Leroy was to answer all our ques…
