What To Expect

Little Africa highlights locations significant to the history of Black people in Rio de Janeiro, places that were previously overlooked and silenced. The guided tour includes a decolonial narrative and essential attractions, such as the Valongo Wharf, a UNESCO World Heritage site since 2017. Over one million enslaved Africans disembarked at this wharf, making it the largest slave port in the Americas.

This tour is a journey through the resilience of a people who reinvented themselves in the diaspora, significantly influencing Brazil's civilizational values, national identity, and culture.

During this experience, you will see and experience:

Afro-Brazilian Heritage;
Afro-Carioca Art;
Afro Cuisine;
Architectural Heritage;
Cultural Awareness.
Little Africa is part of the African Diaspora in the World and the Slave Route, a global UNESCO project. Expand your understanding of ethnic diversity and the fight for equality in Brazil!
