Itinerary
On this Authentic Downtown São Paulo Tour, you can discover many of the city’s iconic attractions in one fascinating day of sightseeing. To begin, head to the vibrant Praça da Sé, marvel at the imposing neo-gothic wonder of Catedral da Sé, and then meander through one of the city’s important architectural hubs. From there, the artistic experience turns into gastronomy appreciation as you sample some typical local snacks and drinks. Next, make your way to Av. São João and gaze in awe at the grandiose Martinelli building, built-in 1929, towering impressively into the sky it was once considered the tallest edifice in the world outside the United States.
With art, architecture, and food ticked off, it’s time to soak up a few unconventional cultural delights. First, you will make a quick stop inside a shopping centre renowned for its collection of various subcultural offerings, after which it’s on to Red bull Station where you will be treated to a capoeira lesson. Fusing dance, acrobatics, and music, this Brazilian-style martial art can be traced back to times of African slavery in the 16th century.
Exhilarated and exhausted, your tour comes to a close in a city bar kick back, relax, and learn all about another African import: the feijoada (a classic Brazilian dish comprised of beans and salted pork that often comes accompanied by rice and oranges). A truly unforgettable travel adventure.
