Choosing Around SP was a good turn. I would even say, the best I could choose. And it is not about the thing, that was only tour-operator I found in the internet, but truly, the hospitality, quality of guidance was the best of the best. If you have still doubt, ask for travel with Louis. The only problem is, that... More

I have to say that the tour with this company saved my Sao Paulo visit)) I had to spend 2 days in Sao Paulo and planned to explore it on my own. But after I got to a kind of brazilian Harlem when there are only drug addicts and drug dealers, I understood that it was a very bad Idea.... More

I booked a 5 hour city tour at the end of a week-long business trip to Brazil. Luiz, my tour guide, provided everything I was looking for and more. Through his help, I was able to patch together the various parts of São Paulo that I had visited earlier in the week into a more coherent picture of the city... More

We went on the beach tour to Santos leaving the Mercur in Sao Paulo. Our tour guide, Denis, was very knowledgeable about Sao Paulo and all points in between SP and Santos. Denis spoke excellent English which allowed us to enjoy the tour without having to worry about context translation between languages. He has a pleasant personality and easy to... More

The time just flew and we had the chance to experience a little bit of everything: history, culture, food, drinks and contemporary Sampa. Around SP also offers transfers... More
