Do you want to get away from the heat of Sao Paulo? Campos do Jordão, known as the 'Brazilian Switzerland', is the perfect place. Fall in love with its wooden houses and alpine scenery!

Description

We'll leave Sao Paulo at the indicated time and after a 2-hour journey we'll reach Campos do Jordão, a town located 5,577 feet (1,700 meters) above sea level. This is the most famous winter destination in the state of Sao Paulo, welcoming thousands of visitors during winter and summer months. Upon arrival, we'll explore emblematic places, including the Boa Vista Palace, the current residence of the state governor, while learning about its history.
