Dive into the unique world of Rio de Janeiro by taking a guided tour of the legendary Santa Marta favela. Breathtaking views unfold here, the live rhythms of samba resound, and the art and culture of the local residents create an atmosphere filled with energy and inspiration.

Your journey will begin with a comfortable funicular ride up, offering panoramic views that encompass the majestic landscapes of the city. One of the first stops is the iconic Michael Jackson statue, which made this neighborhood famous worldwide.

A walk through the narrow streets of Santa Marta will reveal amazing graffiti and installations created by talented local artists. Every element here tells its own story, weaving it into the multifaceted picture of favela life.

A special moment will be visiting the home of a hospitable local family. Here you can get a closer look at the everyday life of the residents, their traditions, and the warmth of their hospitality. At the participants' request, unforgettable options can be added, such as a passista dance performance, a traditional caipirinha-making master class, or a tasting of a homemade lunch prepared in the finest traditions of Brazilian cuisine.

The tour includes a performance by a drumming group—a bateria—whose music conveys the pulse of the real Rio. The grand finale will be visiting the viewpoints with vistas that will remain in your memory forever.

The program is available daily, and tours are conducted in Russian by professional guides. Private accompaniment or tours for small groups are available. For large groups with transportation services, arrangements can be made upon prior request.

Duration: 2 to 4 hours, depending on the selected options.
