São Paulo Layover Tour

A layover can be an opportunity to explore a city you wouldn't otherwise visit. On this São Paulo Layover Tour, you'll be picked up from São Paulo-Guarulhos International Airport and taken on a one-hour journey to the city center to discover its charm.

The tour begins at the exact place where the city was founded, followed by a brief historical walking tour of downtown, featuring the Sé Cathedral, the world's fourth-largest Gothic cathedral.

Next, you will continue in a private vehicle with panoramic views of the Neo-Romanesque San Benito Monastery, the Altino Arantes building, and the Martinelli building, the city's first skyscraper. You will also see the Italian Tower, Brazil's second highest building, along with historical sites such as the Law School, Tea Bridge, Municipal Theatre, and St. Francis Church from the 18th century.

The route includes a visit to the City Hall, constructed from travertine marble, and a trip to the Liberdade neighborhood, home to the largest Japanese community outside Japan. The tour also includes Ibirapuera Park and Avenida Paulista.

Finally, you'll stop at the Municipal Market, the oldest market in São Paulo, known for its food stalls and local delicacies, before returning to the airport for your onward journey.
