What you'll do

Find your feet in urban jungle São Paulo in no time, with your local host as your personal GPS along must-see landmarks like the enormous Metropolitan Cathedral or a Court of Justice inspired by Italian architecture. Hear the fascinating history of how Sampa was founded by missionaries outside the founder's site, before seeing where national ballerinas assemblé at a heavily ornamented masterpiece. Find out where to hang with Paulistanos on the rest of your trip at a market bursting with flavors (and sizzling pastry envelopes galore), before walking in the steps of economic giants along famous street Avenida Paulista. Dart to ultra-hip Beco de Batman alley for a dose of quirky street art, where your host will point out a nearby deep-fried coxinha hotspot.

Where you’ll go

Ditch the introductory guidebook for a crash course on all things Sampa with your savvy host in the city central, gliding past palm tree-lined squares at the towering neo-gothic epicenter of the sprawling city, Catedral de Sé, and dart along cobblestone streets dotted with 18th-century architecture to the founding spot of a now larger-than-life city. The National Theater dripping in embellishments and angelic statues await, the wonder along the bustling city and drop a pin at the Mercadão market teeming with locals to visit on the rest of your trip. Skip along the shadows of skyscrapers in economic hub Avenida Paulista, before meandering in the streets turned canvases in alleyway Beco de Batman, around the corner from your host's favorite local snack spot.
