The tour takes 3 hours in total and it departs at 9 am. - Rocinha Favela. . .
It's been a lesson for all of us to face this reality that everyday is showed and spoken by millions but lived and felt by few that bravely left their home in the northest of Brazil and come with nothing to lose but with a dream to build!
My three hour tour shows you the root of the Favela Community, to provide you with an insight into the vibrant spirit of its people, to allow you to interact freely with the locals.
We will take you to the Favela by our transportation making you feel at home, driving you to the top of a breathtaking view point.
What does Favela mean?
How many people live there?
Why do they live there?
Where do they come from?
Where do they work?
What about education, jobs, health system and so on. |
