Hello everybody, During our stay in Sao Paulo we first had big problems to find a good tour provider and organisator that has a full range of different tours. Finally I have to say that after the full analysis of price, tour range and sevice "Around SP" has turned out to be the best one. We (me and my girlfriend)... More

The Favela tour with Luis in Paraisópolis, near the Morumbi district of Sao Paulo, was a unique and safe experience, one that I would not be able to do myself. The 3 hour tour included some walks in the hilly neighborhood, seeing improvised residences, small shops, songbirds, and storefront churches. Kids played with puppies and cats. We visited two folk...

If you only have an overnight stop in SP but wish to see something of the city it is essential to choose a good local guide for a personalized Tour. The on line booking with Around SP was simple and it was useful to be able to pay the Tour Guide in a choice of currencies upon completion of the... More

I only had one day to explore São Paulo, and since the city is so huge I knew I couldn't explore it all on my own. So I booked a five-hour tour with Around SP. I was specifically interested in food, and my guide, Luis, designed a tour that met my needs perfectly. He took me to an outdoor market,... More

We only had a short time in Sao Paulo so decided to take a city tour with Around SP. We were certainly not disappointed and the 5 hour tour was excellent, showing us far more than we could have hoped to see on our own. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and given the personalised nature of the tour, it's also... More

I am a street art and graffiti photographer from the UK. I spent 5 days traveling around Sao Paulo with Luis from 'Around SP'. In short, he was brilliant. He knew a lot about the city and helped me meet local artists so I was able to take great pictures (over 3,000 in the end). He also kept me safe,... More

Following the recommendations here on TripAdvisor I turned the company via email and after a small misunderstanding which was arranged on the spot I got a personal tour guide for several hours in Sao Paulo. The tour, led by Denis, was finding and reasonable. Nothing much to see in Sao Paulo and the short tour is enough. More

I took the trip with roughly 20 classmates for half the day. It was well organized and flexible to our needs. Despite this large city's very bad traffic, the bus route was successful in showing us the highlights of the city's architecture in the short time we had together. More

Denis gave a great tour of Sao Paulo, with entertaining commentary and great coverage of the city. We didn't feel rushed, we enjoyed the trip, and had enough time to enjoy the sites off the bus. The tour is limited by Sao Paulo (not by Denis). There just frankly isn't that much interesting architecture in the city, and there really... More

We used aroundsp for a private tour for 22 American MBA students on an educational trip to SP. The company was extremely flexible when organizing the time and place to meet. The guide Denice was outstanding and knowledgeable. We only had a few hours in SP and we could have not seen the city the way we did without aroundsp More
