Additional Information

Nowhere else in Rio nor Vidigal can you have an experience inside the home of someone who lives in of of Rio’s most beautiful Favelas!

Booking with US allows you to really see the city through the eyes of someone who isn’t just trying to sell a tour but someone to simply show the love!

Deep inside, you will feel like a true Carioca, experiencing the what it’s like to be inside of a massive city of Shanty homes and massive concrete structures.

Best time with my Gringo boyfriend - I am Brazilian but I wanted to take my boyfriend to Vidigal. I found Experience Rio on Instagram and I did this event with Henry and his wife. The cachaça was good and that surprised me rsrs because many in Rio drink 51 which is very bad.... The class was fun and the view of Rio was incredible. We even ate some food and talked a lot with Henry and his wife. The day was perfect and I was very happy to show my boyfriend around Rio because I am from SP... Ending our day in Vidigal was so fun and i would recommend all the people to come here because Henry really knows what he's doing. He is a pro!
