Great your guide - great city! Really enjoyed this tour and our guide was filled with interesting tidbits

Great way to see São Paulo’s highlights!

Published on Aug, 2022

My friendly, knowledgeable and personable tour guide Fabio gave an excellent tour of São Paulo. He showed me the highlights of the city, giving me excellent tips on which attractions to visit on my own free time. Fabio was a fantastic photographer, in addition to being a safe and skilled driver while navigating the busy streets of São Paulo. Some of the places we visited: Catedral Da Se, Liberdade, Beato Jose de Anchieta History Museum, Central Market, Batman’s Alley, Avenida Paulista, Ibirapuera Park, and the rooftop of the Museum of Contemporary Art that had sweeping views of the city. This tour is a fantastic way to visit some of São Paulo’s primary attractions if you’re short on time. Highly recommended!

A hugely successful Sao Paolo tour

Published on Feb, 2022

What a magnificent personal Sao Paolo tour from guide Bruno Ferrari. How could one ask for more, when Bruno drove far out of town to collect us - and then after a wonderful tour experience took both of us all the way back to our door. In between the journeys (and during the drives, too) Bruno filled our heads with so much knowledgeable information, entertainment and advice of such high order that we were spellbound. His friendly and relaxed conversational style (and comfortable command of English) kept us at ease throughout. His care and attention during our walks kept us feeling calm and secure at all times. His good- humour, sharp intelligence and infectious enthusiasm gave us an informative and altogether delightful day that enabled us to absorb a broad grasp of Sao Paolo's riches. He gave us a broad platform of awareness that leaves us with a huge desire to learn more and to come back to Greg Tur again for more visits and explorations. Thank you so much Mr Ferrari. We look forward to seeing you again.
