What You Will Do

It is the Connection/exchange between tourist and resident, our mission is to take the visitor to an immersion inside the favela, get to know the resident's daily life, understand the challenges and achievements over more than 100 years since the creation of the first Favela, it is have a broad view of the daily life of a favela resident in Rio, as more than 25% of Rio's population lives in Favelas.
In addition to understanding our daily life, your visit contributes 100% to the development of educational, linguistic, sports or cultural projects within the Favela, as part of the amount paid by tourists, 50% is applied to these actions, developed by residents, without any support from the public authorities. .
