LOCAL PEOPLE. OPEN DOORS.
The Brazil we love to share.
Good places begin with good people.
Rovia is a small collective of local hosts, curious walkers and people who know the value of sitting down to a good meal. We bring together a collection of experiences across Rio de Janeiro, Salvador, Paraty and the dunes of Maranhão.
We keep our groups small and our days flexible. Each experience has a clear route, a thoughtful pace and a host who makes you feel welcome.

WHY
Because the best stories come from people who live them. Our hosts share the places and rituals they know personally.
Because a smaller group makes space for a real conversation, a longer pause and a more personal day.
Because a good journey leaves you with more than photographs. It leaves you with a connection to a place.
People who make a place feel familiar.
Rio de Janeiro
Marina Duarte
Marina shares Rio through neighborhood walks, little cafés and the stories behind familiar views.
Salvador
Caio Nascimento
Caio introduces the city through food, lively squares and conversations with the people who make it feel like home.
Paraty
Luísa Ferreira
Luísa favors a slower pace, following Paraty’s streets with time for a good story and a local stop.
