Overview

Based in Vidigal since 2020, I guide travelers through emblematic places of the favela, offering an authentic immersion. The streets reveal the lively life of this welcoming community. In the space of one morning, you will discover one of the most beautiful views of Rio with, in total, Christ, Sugar Loaf and the three beaches of Leblon, Ipanema and Copacabana. The visit to the favela will bring you a dimension of the life of the cariocas, an integral part of the city of Rio de Janeiro.

Meeting points

The meeting place will be Vidigal Square. I wear a tourist guide badge around my neck. To be confirmed after booking.

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

The best tour of Vidigal!

Published on Dec, 2024

Jean gave us a breathtaking tour of Vidigal and hike up Two Brothers mountain. He really looked after us the whole time and we felt incredibly safe in his company. He was very knowledgable about the area, full of information - I would highly recommend his tours!

Surprising Highlight of Rio

Published on Aug, 2024

I originally booked the tour to be a combination Dois Irmaos hike and Vidigal Favela tour. The latter was more of an afterthought for me; I was more interested in the hike. Well, it turned out the favela tour was fascinating. Jean takes you not just on the main drag, but he'll include the parts that can't be filmed too. I will say no more, but it was definitely a highlight -one that will have to live on only in my memory. He also happens to live in the favela, and he even showed me his place. Don't get me wrong -the Dois Irmaos hike is amazing. I would say generally it offers the best views in Rio, because you can see both Christ the Redeemeer, as well as Sugarloaf. So definitely do the combo tour, if Jean still offers it. Just pick a clear day. If Dois Irmaos is in the clouds, you'll see very little.

Wonderful trip in Vidigal, an unforgettable experience

Published on Jun, 2024

It was an incredible tour and whole new experience for me to travel to Favéla, the amazing view and how the history of constructing Favéla left deep impression on me. I really appreciate the whole tour with Jean, who is a very nice and easy-going guide. With his professional and detailed explanation, I enjoyed the whole trip! Highly recommend to visit Favéla with Jean C!
