Afro Walking Tour - Samba and resistance (Pedra do Sal)

About this activity

We will walk through the most important places in the history of black resistance in Rio de JaneIro, an immersion into Afro-Brazilian culture, gastronomy and customs.

You will learn stories of important personalities who fought with all their might for freedom and the end of slavery in the country.

We are going to finish the tour close to Pedra do Sal, the place where Samba was born. A place that still has the tradition of celebrating street parties every Monday and Friday.
