Overview

This 5-hour private tour of São Paulo covers the city’s main sights with an optional airport pickup within the greater São Paulo area. The tour begins with pickup at the hotel or airport, followed by a visit to Ibirapuera Park, where guests can see the large green space, its lake, water fountains, and the Monument to the Bandeiras, a well-known landmark honoring early settlers. Next, the tour stops at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MAC) located in Ibirapuera Park, where visitors spend about 30 minutes on the terrace enjoying a panoramic view of the city. The route continues along Avenida 23 de Maio, where travelers can view the world’s largest vertical garden on the walls. The tour then proceeds to the Liberdade neighborhood, known for its Japanese cultural fair held on weekends and distinctive Japanese-style street lamps. Afterward, the group visits the Sé Cathedral, an imposing building inspired by medieval European churches located in the city center. The tour passes several historical buildings downtown, including Pateo do Collegio, the founding site of São Paulo with its museum, and the Mosteiro de São Bento, a Benedictine monastery famous for its Gregorian chant masses and bakery products made by the monks. The Matarazzo Building, which now serves as the city hall, and the Theatro Municipal, a significant cultural venue, are also seen from outside. A break at the Municipal Market allows about 40 minutes to explore local foods, fruits, beverages, and other products.

Finally, the group visits Paulista Avenue and spends 30 minutes at Batman Alley in Vila Madalena, an open-air gallery featuring colorful and frequently changing graffiti art.
