It's very worth it. - Careful and bilingual guide, interesting and very profitable script. In addition, he was willing to take and give suggestions for photos, gave suggestions for interesting places for lunch, was very flexible about our priorities, and still remained willing to give more tips for tours around the city.

Careful and empathic guide. - The Danilo guide was very attentive and empathic. The group had a maximum of 8 people, mostly foreigners, being only me and my husband Brazilians. He spoke first in English and then repeated in Portuguese. As the day was rainy, he gave us the option of remarking the visit, but we preferred to do it even with rain. He led us to buy a raincoat / umbrella and whenever the rain got stronger we stopped. When needed, he stopped for us to buy water or go to the bathroom. We depart from Plaza de la Libertad and continue to Catedral da Sé, Marco Zero, Casa da Marquesa, Pateo do Collegio, Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil, Museu da Bolsa de Valores (MUB3), Farol Santander, Edifício Martinelli, Monastery São Bento and Municipal Theatre. You may have forgotten to mention some tourist spot on our route, but I found these very striking. Some were possible to explore for 10 minutes, others only passed. One situation that caught my attention was that he did not move from one tourist spot to another until all members of the group gathered. We ended up waiting for a missing member inside the Banco do Brasil Museum for almost 30 minutes. Also gave us tips with the best angles for the photos and directed us to the best means of transport for our return.

Great walking tour - We found this walking tour very interesting. Danilo spoke very good English and was very knowledgeable about Sao Paolo and Brazil. The tour was just about 3 hours at a relatively gentle pace. Lots of places to sit discuss and ask questions. Danilo took us to parts of the city we would have been uncomfortable exploring on our own. A great way to get a feel for the city. Would highly recommend. Thank you Danilo.

Great experience - Danilo was a great guide. Good communication before the start, good information at the start about what to expect, and then good information about what I was seeing. Fascinating information about the founding and development of São Paulo. All the time I felt safe with Danilo and he was very attentive to my needs. I strongly recommend Danilo as a guide!
