ConsultRio de Janeiro Favela Tour - Guided Tour into Brazil's Largest Favela
Description
The mountainous topography of Rio de Janeiro houses thousands of people living in impoverished communities, with million dollar views. Favela is a Brazilian term used for Shanty town, and many sprung-up in the 70's from displaced populations. Your visit to the Favelas will reveal the heart of Rio culture, the urban sounds and the energy of its people. You will learn the story of the community, their social codes, and the organizations working to better the community.
You will be driven to the top of the Favela then walk down through the Favela with your guide. Take appropriate footwear for these activities and some money if you might be interested in buying artwork at your visit to an art school. The art studio is called the Culture Project (Casa de Cultura) and it aims to showcase local artists creating works which represent the local spirit, history and culture. Following on from this is the Day care Centre. This is an initiative where local and multinational companies have joined forces to provide a venue for the education and development of the Favela's local youth.
