Overview

  • Experience the Mystical Power of an Umbanda Gira Ceremony in Rio de Janeiro

    Discover the heart of Afro-Brazilian spirituality in a traditional terreiro in Rio. This guided visit to an authentic Umbanda Gira introduces you to sacred songs, drumming, dance, and spiritual incorporations, as mediums connect with spirit guides known as Guias.

    You’ll witness powerful energies as entities like Pretos-Velhos, Caboclos, offer healing, wisdom, and protection. Umbanda is a beautiful blend of African, Indigenous, and Catholic traditions—open to all and rooted in love and harmony.

    Your guide will explain the rituals, symbols, and meanings behind the ceremony, ensuring a respectful and meaningful experience. This is more than a cultural visit—it’s an invitation to connect with Brazil’s mystical soul.

    Come with an open heart—and leave transformed.
