Fun & Safe Tour, Would recommend - Fun organized pub crawl! My husband and I had a fun night. We started at a chic rooftop bar downtown, then a fun live music bar with a small dance floor, then hit a club with another band. The bar was absolutely packed for a Tuesday night. I would have a hard time doing this tour as a single person. I think the organizer should have done a better job facilitating introductions and who does/doesn't speak English. A quick Samba lesson would have helped kick off the night as well. Small suggestions, overall fun (and safe) night! Other tips: 1. Make sure you have a pic of your passport/ID for getting into some bars 2. Avoid carrying a pursue 3. Plan to pay by credit card

Best tour in Brazil - Great tour. Gave a truly great insight into the favela. Walked throughout and still felt very safe. Was able to see local artist and culture. Not rushed. Moderate walking but was able to take breaks as needed. Highly recommend doing this tour

Not bad - A little bit unorganized in the beginning, but still a great party. We just need a little more organization and they would’ve been perfect.

Pub crawling in Rio under rain :-) - Apart from the inconvenience of the bad weather, it was a super wonderful experience between each bar. However, being black, I was able to recognize racism in the flesh of the group to which I belonged. In any case, the guides were super friendly and attentive. And they brought us some unforgettable cheese cakes. I would definitely do the tour with them again!

Tourist trap - may or may not be your thing esp during carnival - The Lapa district is very similar to Bourbon street in NOLA - full of pubs and bars - and during carnival, lots of drunk and partying people. If you are interested in blocos parties, this may be good for you but beware of the issues that will probably come from severely inebriated people and very organized pickpockets.

Boring Tour and Guides - Do the Tour yourself and save some money - We did the Lapa pub crawl with friends in April 2024 and paid 100 Real per person. The locations chosen were not very exclusive (Youth Hostel) and the tour guides were a bit unmotivated. The drinks were warm cachaca. We had the impression that the locations were chosen because of the high prices of drinks, which makes the event twice as expensive. We therefore canceled the pub crawl early. Our clear recommendation is to do the tour on your own. Since Lapa is full of people, getting to know people is no problem.

Meh - Unfortunately, it was rather disorganised and overbooked with too many people. There were no free drinks and the places we went to were already too packed.
