This is a 3-hour walking tour in Rio de Janeiro that includes hotel pickup and drop-off at selected locations. The tour starts with a pickup at Copacabana Beach at 1:30 PM, where most participants are collected. The group then travels by air-conditioned minivan along the coast to Ipanema Beach, arriving around 1:50 PM to pick up additional guests. After all pickups, the minivan drives to Rocinha, the largest favela in Brazil. A local guide leads a walking tour lasting about two hours, covering approximately 3 kilometers, mostly downhill. The guide shares information about daily life in Rocinha and the challenges faced by its residents. Comfortable shoes are recommended due to uneven steps and the downhill route. After the walk, the group returns by minivan to the Copacabana area, passing the beaches of Leblon and Ipanema again. Participants must inform the guide of their hotel location to be dropped off as close as possible. The tour includes transport in an air-conditioned minivan, a local guide, an access contribution to the community, and hotel pickup and drop-off at selected locations. Children must be accompanied by an adult. Sunglasses with cameras are not allowed for privacy and comfort. Participants should be fit enough to walk at least 5 kilometers.
