Your visit will create work opportunities within the community. Our Sustainable Tourism Project was the first one inside favelas in Brazil. The biggest purpose of our tour is to show another reality of Rio de Janeiro and along with that, give opportunity of work for those who lives in the community. We do not say we help, we show it to you as the guide lives inside the favela. This not only give to them work and education as improves both, their knowledge and their self-esteem. The reality is that Rocinha, despite its limitations, is different from that and on the tour we show you different culture, development and several activities they execute to make a living - from making handcraft to recycling plastic. In this regard,Rocinha

 is unique compared to other slums in Brazil, and indeed the world. The locals visitors and their response has been highly positive as we are very sensitive and respectful about the dignity and privacy of them. The community respect and supports our tour because they are aware of the Sustainable Project and its benefits.
