São Paulo with a local - Luis was one of beer guides we have had around the world. Kept it so interesting and fun. Great at sharing stories and exploring our interests to shape conversations and sites we visited.

Great Day Tour! - Great tour! We had an 8 hour layover at Sao Paulo Airport and chose the layover Tour with Around SP. Our tour guide Fabio was awesome! We saw many of the main sites around the city but our favorite part was seeing all of the murals/street art around the city. Fabio knew all about the artists and the history of art in Sao Paulo. Make sure you ask for Fabio if you book this tour as he can also take you to the best place in the city to watch the sunset (location is a secret)!

Terrific! - My colleague and I were met at the airport on time and with a friendly smile. Our tour guide Luis immediately made us feel welcomed. He led us to a very clean car and as we drove out, started talking about the incredible city of Sao Paulo. His English is excellent so he was easy to understand and very knowledgeable about the city. It was great having a guide show us around and point out interesting sights and give us a better understanding of the culture. Luis saved the best for last and took us to Villa Madelena which is a special neighborhood and when we asked where we could find unique gifts/souvenirs, he knew exactly where to take us. Overall very satisfied and would highly recommend AroundSP.

Informative Sao Paulo tour - Luis was very kind with great information. He arranged for us to taste Brazilian fruits and treats. I loved the fruit with the white flesh. Also the batman lane is a great spot for photos. I recommend this tour for anyone with a long transfer time on the airport.

Very good service! - I saw this agency was highly graded on trip advisor and number 4 out of 115 tours in Sao Paulo... so I chose them. I needed a half day tour of sao Paulo and transfers to Paraty and back. They had excellent service. Very good English speaking drivers, and they were in touch all the time through mail and what's up. It is not a cheap service- but... you pay for what you get. A Responsible agency. Thank you very much!

Layover Tour Experience - With a 12-hour layover, we decided to venture out of the airport and visit the city of Sao Paulo. After looking for the best of the best, we booked the Layover Private Tour with Around SP. Our communication with the Agency was flawless, Around SP provided us with plenty of information, clear costs, expeditious answers to our questions, etc. This Agency is well organized; they definitely know how to handle their business. Our guide was Adi Zegman and he was waiting for us right outside of the airport, a sign with our names in his hands and probably the friendliest smile in the city, right off the bat we felt welcomed and very comfortable. Adi explained to us about the tour, he also asked us our particular preferences and what we would like to prioritize out of our visit. The opportunity to tailor a tour is fantastic if you are interested in favoring areas such as arts, cuisine, sports or others. Under Adi’s careful guidance, we visit multiple areas in Sao Paulo, including the Vila Madalena, an artsy neighborhood full of art studios and wonderful murals. This is a must stop in Sao Paulo, it is interesting to see how a city can turn an unfriendly neighborhood in a piece of art that will attract tourists. We also visited the Avenida Paulista and el Monumento a las Banderas. We stopped for a walk a the Ibirapuera Park, probably the equivalent to NY’s Central Park. This park seems to be a top weekend destination for locals, plenty of families relaxing and enjoying their time. Adi suggested us several types of restaurants, we opted for a rodizio and following Adi’s recommendation we had a super meal, the Gauchos marching and bringing different types of meats provided us with a great dining experience. We went for a good local coffee and Adi went above and beyond to get us the best one. We continue our tour around the city to visit the Japanese neighborhood, the Cathedral and other areas. After a long day, Adi brought us back to the airport, just on time to catch our next flight Kudos to Adi for such wonderful experience!
