Booking your visit to Rocinha
*****IMPORTANT: Tours book up quickly. Because of the quality visits we offer, we ONLY give 1 tour/visit a day with a maximum of 8 people per group. If we receive larger groups we will hire 1-2 more guides and provide vans to accomodate the size of you group. At this point our vans can only hold maximum of 15 people. Please contact us the days you have open for a visit. Try to book your tour 2-3 DAYS IN ADVANCE if possible.
Please read all the information below.

**We are in the office before the tours/visits start and after the tours end. So, we have access to internet in the morning and early to late evening to answer questions and book visits.
We like to begin the tours/visits at 9 or 10 in the morning, but we can also start the visit later too. The latest we will begin a tour is 2:30 pm. The only exception is our Foodies/Beer Crawl Tours which are early evening and night visits!
Depending on where you are staying, we will meet at a designated point along Avenida Atlantica at one of the “Postos” on the beach.
Most our our groups like to meet in front of Posto 9 in Ipanema, because it is very easy to find and a safe neighborhood. But, we can meet you anywhere along Avenida Atlantica. We can also meet you at your hotel and bring you to Rocinha.
We will bring you to the community of Rocinha by van. After the tour we will escort you back to the meeting point. You will pay your guide at the end of your visit.
