We have spent a wonderful time at Maggie and Sergio’s. The flat is located in a nice building at 300mts from the entry of Vidigal and the view from the bedroom is the most incredible i’ve seen in Rio. Maggie is involved in an organisation of the favela where she teaches Yoga so she can introduce you and you can see jui jitsu and capoeira training. She gives very good advices too about Rio so it can be a good place to start. Very nice and interesting people and there are also two cute dogs !!
