  Isaac was a great teacher and educated us on the history of São Paulo and Brazil .The tour was a great introduction to this city which is quite widespread and we could never have seen so much in such a short period of time without him .But it was the fruit and candy tasting which was the star of the tour .Amazing fruits we had never seen nor heard of and everything tasted great .

• 5Sao Paulo layover tour

  We just finished up a fabulous tour with Isaac Roa around Sao Paulo. Me and my best friend had an 8 hour layover in the city and wanted to utilize that time to see some of the sights. This excursion did not disappoint. I enjoyed all the history and knowledge Isaac imparted, we stopped at the market for a good lunch and we visited many sights in the city. I will definitely be recommending this 5 hour tour to family and friends traveling to and through Sao Paulo.

• 5Excellent

  We had a 5 hours Sao Paulo tour which started from Guarulhos airport. The pick up from the airport was flawless (got a message from the guide as soon as the plane landed at 05:30am). The tour itself was excellent (you will experience real Sao Paulo), but the real gem was our guide Mauro. He did everything and more for us to have a lovely time. Thank you from the bottom of our heart my friend.
