Tourist Guide in Rocinha since 2012.
An ambitious and avid young man who knows what he wants.
It was a very interesting tour. I also thought it was great that we were only a small group.
I felt surprisingly safe in Rocinha even tho I had concerns before the tour. The tour itself was very interesting and did not feel staged. Luiz was a good tour guide with good insights since he was born there. would recommend the tour.
Amazing exploring the favelas with a local, we discovered so much about the origin of favelas and life in there today, thanks!
Luiz represented not only as a tour guide but also as a resident of Rocinha. During the tour, Luiz made sure that we felt safe and always looked out for us. Walking through with Luiz gave us far more insights than expected and I really appreciate his candor about living in a favela. Go with curiosity, open mindedness, and compassion.
Se cambió el tour para otro día y yo no estaba disponible
