Tasting Sao Paulo

It was a wonderful day. Doris is a delight. We loved sampling the local food and seeing things we would not have been able to without her expert.

Fabulous Gastronomic Tour of Sao Paulo

We had a private gastronomic tour of São Paulo with our guide, Doris. The tour was outstanding and we were able to try many Brazilian staples, to include chocolate and coffee. Doris provided us with history of Brazil and São Paulo throughout the tour. Her explanations and insights were so interesting and she was so engaging. She knew we visited the market with another guide the day before and pivoted her plans. It ended up being a bonus for us as we visited new bakeries and restaurants. Doris was the best tour guide we had during our two weeks in South America!

Visit of Sao Paulo through its gastronomy

A very interesting tour, the guide Danilo on the go changed the itinerary and showed us a part of Sao Paulo that we did not know and a very rich traditional gastronomy. Danilo is a very prepared and competent guide. We would repeat the experience with him without hesitation. Thank you.

Fantastic São Paulo private tour.

This is a great tour for travellers who want to see São Paulo without any hassle as we were picked up and dropped off at our hotel. Ilan, our guide was the best! He contacted us before the tour and learned we did a private tour that day. He created an itinerary for us that did not duplicate anything we seen the day before and included items we were particular interested in like architecture. His food choices were great and we were delighted with everything we tried. Ilan was incredibly knowledgeable and such a lovely person. We had the best day with him. I would highly recommend this tour.

Best Memory of Brazil

Daniel guided me on two private tours: a city and food tour. I have taken city and food tours all over the world and he is the best guide I have ever had. He is knowledgeable about all aspects of San Paulo; e.g. its culture, history, politics, architecture, art, food, vibe. His views seem balanced and objective while being passionately in love with his city. Best of all it is like visiting your best friend in his favorite place and him sharing why he loves it. As a single women I felt safe and respected. I was in Brazil for 27 days and my time with Daniel was simply my best memory. For the food tour we went to his favorite bakery and we were spoiled for choices. He wanted me to try Brazilian specialities. One of them I liked so much we ordered another one with coffee that had my name written on it. Then we went to the municipal market which is a beautiful old building with gorgeous stain glass windows. We had a shrimp and creamy cheese dish that was amazing. We also went to his favorite fruit stand I probably had 8 different fresh fruits grown in Brazil that were so tasty. It was a fabulous and fun experience. He is simply a beautiful human being who loves what he does and want to share that with you!
