A Taste of Feijoada in the Paraisópolis Favela

Our journey begins at 9 am with a pickup from your hotel in São Paulo. Let's embark on this cultural adventure!

We will head towards Paraisópolis, recognized as the second-largest favela in the city. Upon arrival, prepare for a 3-hour guided tour that will take us through the winding streets at the heart of the neighborhood. Here, we'll explore the vibrant lifestyle, culture, traditions, and the strong spirit of the community.

As part of our exploration, we'll visit Berbela's mechanical workshop, where this artist transforms discarded plastic and motorbike parts into stunning sculptures.

Additionally, we can't miss Estevão's Stone House, one of the area's most remarkable features, where Estevão, often referred to as the Gaudí of Paraisópolis, has created a fascinating space filled with everyday objects that are ingeniously integrated into the house's layout.

Feeling hungry? After wandering through the neighborhood, we'll arrive at Bistro Mãos de Maria, a delightful venue perched on the rooftop of a community association in the favela. Here, you can enjoy a serving of feijoada, a hearty dish made with beans and salted pork, typically served with rice and oranges.

After 6 enriching hours exploring a different side of São Paulo, we will drop you back at your hotel by 3 pm.
