Highly recommend this personalized tour of Sao Paulo

I highly recommend this 4-hour tour of Sao Paulo with Kali. She picked me up on time at my hotel, asked me about my interests and preferences (did I want to focus on gastronomy, churches, something else?) and made adjustments along the way to accommodate traffic, rain, and other factors. Kali has clearly developed strong personal relationships with artists and vendors at key locations that helped personalize the tour experience. We chatted with a number of artists while strolling through Beco do Batman, where I tasted locally made spirits, spoke with a woman who makes jewelry out of nespresso pods, and visited a few galleries and art shops. When we visited the Market, a number of vendors said hi to Kali -- one let us taste a dozen different kinds of fruit. We drove by Japantown, which I had wanted to see (but we agreed it was too crowded on a Sunday for a comfortable visit) and made a quick stop at the Cathedral. We also stopped at the Museum of Contemporary Art to check out the vista view from the top floor and enjoyed a coffee break at the cafe. Kali provided great information about the history, culture, and everyday life of the people of Sao Paulo and Brazil. Her car was clean and comfortable. Great half-day tour and well worth the investment since Sao Paulo is so spread out. I wouldn't have been able to see the city in an efficient way without a tour like this.

Fun tour and market experience

Luiz was an extremely knowledgable guide. He tailored the tour to our interests, and had a deep knowledge of the history and architecture of the area. He was also very pleasant to have a conversation with during the driving times. Would definitely recommend, and request Luiz in the future.
