(Translated by Google) The Maze is really closed for visitation! We went today and tell my experience: the taxi left us in a place that was not really the right place! We had to walk there (approx 1.2 km from where we went down). The community is very welcoming and safe and the locals indicated us with reasonable accuracy but we really couldn't visit it because it was closed by the city hall! Until arriving we walked inside the community and then we can understand why we could not find the location! It is really "within" the community only accessible on foot! As we could not visit The Maze, we ended up walking to Vista do Bahiano, paid 10 reais and the view is really worth it! There are mototáxis and kombis available to go up to very close, just ask! For me it was worth the visit because I got to know a side of RJ that we only see on the news! The hill is managed by Bope, there is no traffic or violence, you can go up easily! I recommend! But The Maze no longer works (I can't tell until when). (Original) O The Maze está realmente fechado para visitação! Fomos hj e conto minha experiência: o táxi nos deixou num local que não era efetivamente o lugar correto! Tivemos de andar até lá (aprox 1.2 km de onde descemos). A comunidade é super acolhedora e segura e os moradores nos indicaram o local com razoável precisão mas realmente não conseguimos visitar pois estava interditado pela prefeitura! Até chegar caminhamos por dentro da comunidade e ai conseguimos entender o porque de não termos conseguido achar a localização ! Fica realmente “dentro” da comunidade so acessível a pé! Como nao conseguimos visitar o The Maze, acabamos caminhando até a Vista do Bahiano, pagamos 10 reais e a vista realmente vale a pena! Há mototáxis e kombis à disposição para subir até bem próximo, é só ir perguntando! Pra mim valeu muito a visita pois pude conhecer um lado do RJ que só vemos em noticiários! O morro é administrado pelo Bope, não há tráfico ou violência, pode subir tranquilamente! Recomendo! Mas o The Maze não funciona mais (não sei dizer até quando).

(Translated by Google) The Maze is closed due to cracks found in its construction. We went today and there was no evidence that the place was banned. (Original) O The Maze está fechado devido a rachaduras encontradas em sua construção. Fomos hoje e não havia indícios que o local estava interditado.

a different experience in Rio. Was not so easy to find but the walk through the safe favela was interesting. Nice views.

It should be noted, we came for Jazz, but the staff informed us live Jazz was ended in 2019 and has not returned since. We had a great time wandering this unusual and colorful tile mosaic gallery buried in a favella. The cost to tour the tile work is R$10 per person and the guide does speak some English. Great views and unique experience.

I love taking my clients there! It's a beautiful spot with creative mosaic structure and a nice view! In a quiet favela and right next to BOPE(the most powerful Brazilian police)! Vans to go up cost 3.50R$ and to go down 2R$ or you can walk up or even get there by Uber if the driver doesn't mind driving up a Favela.

Nice house to visit! One of the best histories in Rio! Dr. Bob built this house in a multicultural way, with support of a lot of working & travel visitors from all over the world! To reach the house it is better to go up in the street by public van or a motorcycle taxi paying 4 R$.

(Translated by Google) Nice view, but it is good to go early so you can take pictures with more light. It is a hostel / art gallery and the visit fee costs $ 10. (Original) Vista bonita, porém é bom ir mais cedo, para poder tirar fotos com mais luz. É um hostel/galeria de arte e a taxa de visitação custa R$ 10.

(Translated by Google) I haven't even been there! How do you want me to make an assessment? (Original) Nem estive lá ! Como querem que eu faça alguma avaliação ?

Cool unique mosaics. It's a hostile where you can either rent a room or work 4 hours for your room. Shuttle bus up the hill is 4 reals and down the hill is 2 real. Totally worth a visit even if just for the views.

(Translated by Google) Wonderful view... (Original) Maravilhosa vista...

(Translated by Google) When you enter the door you enter another dimension. Indescribable place. Otherworldly thing. Look that makes everyone jaw drop. You come in and walk through a living work of art. It is the weather? Bob's musical mood, deliciousness, art everywhere, smiles and mind-blowing stories. Feel like not leaving there anymore (Original) Quando vc entra pela porta vc entra em outra dimensão. Lugar indescritível. Coisa do outro mundo. Visual que deixa todo mundo de queixo caído. Vc entra e anda por uma obra de arte viva. E o clima? Clima musical, gostoso, arte por todos os lados, sorrisos e histórias alucinantes do Bob. Dá vontade de não sair mais de lá

(Translated by Google) It is an immense construction in the process of being completed. In addition to a hostel sheltered on Sundays, a restaurant with Indian cuisine (69.99 paid on the spot, if you buy before I left cheaper, #ficaadica!) And some Fridays a Jazz show! The view is sensational of the Enseada de Botafogo! Worth a stroll through the alleys of the Tavares Bastos Community (a peaceful community that houses the BOPE barracks). (Original) É uma construção imensa em processo de finalização. Além de hostel abrigada aos domingos um restaurante com culinária indiana (69,99 valor pago na hora, se comprar antes saí mais barato, #ficaadica!)e em algumas sextas um show de Jazz! A vista é sensacional da Enseada de Botafogo! Vale o passeio pela vielas da Comunidade Tavares Bastos (comunidade pacificada que abriga o quartel do BOPE).

(Translated by Google) The place is amazing, has an amazing view and is beautiful. I spent the weekend there and it was wonderful. The rooms leave a little to be desired, but the ambience certainly pays off. (Original) O lugar é incrível, tem uma vista impressionante e é belíssimo. Passei o fim de semana lá e foi maravilhoso. Os quartos deixam um pouco a desejar, mas o ambiente certamente compensa.

Found this hidden gem today. The Sunday Indian lunch buffet was super delicious, with authentic homemade Indian dishes. The acai lassi is a must have. One of the very few places with real Indian food in Rio. Also loved the views, music and vibes. There is absolutely no need to worry about the road uphill while getting here. Will definitely return for the food!

(Translated by Google) Family atmosphere, good girls without any interest, the owner for councilman NOW! 😁 (Original) Ambiente familiar,boas mocinhas sem qualquer interesse,o dono para vereador JÁ!😁

It is an unique experience in Rio de Janeiro. It is inside a local community but we felt safe all the time. The place has an amazing architechture using a lot of mosaics, music was great with a high quality jazz, tasty indian food and good drinks! The views is also beautiful! If you are in Rio find some time to go there.

Emtrance ticket to expensive R$ 50 (and it is not true that there is beer without limit until certain hour as a comment below says). Thay should put more ceiling fans at least, some of them were off (to many people in small spaces). The show of "The New York brass band" (when I went) was really short, like a hour, I arrived at 12pm. The atmosphere, idea, location, view is very good. Lack of manteinance.

Amazing location and safe to do without a guide.

Amazing views and beautiful architecture. Unique atmosphere, lovely staff. On Sundays they have an event, Hoje Tem Curry, serving delicious and authentic curries.

What a great place!! The Maze is a hostel, jazz club and place for an Indian feast (on Sundays). It is a very quirky layout, completely decorated with tile mosaics, and it has a stunning view across the water to Sugarloaf. The hostel facilities are quite basic (it suits the favela setting, but is very safe), but it's worth it for the experience. Bob and Malu are lovely people - very friendly and helpful. Plus breakfast is good!

Best experience in Río Awesome place in the middle of a safe community, allows you to get a glimpse of the communities lifestyle. Bob's place is also a true work of art with it's own true soul. If you go there for the jazz, you'll find yourself in a world renown jazz venue among the top. On Sundays you can also experience true Indian cuisine. Best in Río on one of the best places to chill and spend a Sunday afternoon. It is one of the best experiences you can find in Río, totally safe and 100% worth it.

In a scaring Favela. Overcrowded. Impossible to dance or even move. Lots of smokers everywhere making to breath too hard. The place has specific areas to smokers, but they don't obbey. To reach the Maze, an adventure shuttle is mandatory. It is good to visit once in a lifetime,maybe. Beers are expensive to local standards: R$20 a 600ml bottle. The view is good, but not so wonderful.

Beautiful place, well decorated and great views (especially from the top floors). Music was good too; I went to a jazz night and the players and crowd were enthusiastic. They have set up transport for people going up/down the morro, which is very helpful. The wine left something to be desired though, in both taste and price, as did the queue to get fichas (drinks tokens).

Amazing place in a pacified favela. Great venue for their Jazz concert held every 1st Friday of the month! Amazing ambiance with an amazing view. They hold a all you can eat Indian buffet every Sunday from 12:00 to 16:00 (buy your ticket online to get 10brl off) + the entrance to the Maze is free. Also you can stay longer than 4pm. The owner is very interesting and full of knowledge. The place is also in a pacified favela so you can walk around there while being safe. To get there you can either walk all the way up by foot or take a little shuttle that cost 3brl at the corner of Tavares Bastos ans Bento Lisboa.

Great music experience! First class jazz jams. The venue is too hot in the summer, but there are many outdoor spots with fresh oxygen :P

Fantastic and crowded place. Not easy to get there, but it's worthwhile. Always great jazz being played and an spectacular view.

This place is amazing for those after a true Río experience! Lovely people, wonderful vibe, amazing view!

(Translated by Google) Very beautiful place, people who work there are very receptive. Too bad the place is suffering from an action of the state itself and can no longer offer jazz nights and food. Still worth the visit, the gallery, the look and everything! (Original) Lugar muito bonito, pessoas que trabalham ali são super receptivas.
