Discover Brazil through its flavours, history, and rhythm on this immersive food tour in Rio de Janeiro.

We want your trip to go beyond labels. We want guides who don’t just point out places, but connect cultures. With Free Walker, you will explore the authentic Little Africa quarter, where culture and cuisine blend far beyond artificial tourist spots.

The experience takes you to Pedra do Sal, the birthplace of samba, where music fills the streets and the flavours of Rio come alive.

Our goal is to introduce you to flavours from different regions of Brazil while sharing the stories and cultural influences behind each bite.
