Outstanding. My guide was incredible. She knew and understood so much of the city and shared so many memorable places with me. Honestly best tour I've had; was worth every penny.

The best last day in Sao Paolo ! I learned so much from Doris about the architecture evolution in Sao Paolo . Such a great experience to bring it home :)
I took this tour as part of a pre-planning effort for a work project. Doris showed me exactly what I needed to see and did a tremendous job explaining all the history and evolution of São Paulo’s architecture. Well done!
Our tour guide, Kali, was extremely pleasant and courteous. We visited several landmarks and understood their history and significance as Kali was able to tell them well. We had lunch together then proceeded to the fruit stand at the market downtown. Excellent foods and company for all to enjoy. Kali, thanks again for giving us a beautiful tour of your city, your hospitality. I’m grateful we met. Good luck! Gibson and Aimee
This was a really excellent tour with a very knowledgeable and friendly guide Doris. Doris asked us about our specific interests and tailored the tour to that. We gained a really good appreciation of the history of Sao Paolo through its architecture from its founding to the present day. We finished the tour with a coffee and the most spectacular view of the sun setting over the city. We would definitely recommend this trip to anyone. Thank you Doris for being such a great guide and introducing us to your city.
Doris is knowledgeable and really passionate about SP. We visited multiple places with interesting architecture. I like the city a lot.
We enjoyed our tour enormously,. Dóris is a great guide with incredible knowledge about the city's past en present and speaks with love and passion about her city. Her English is excellent. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
Yesterday's guided tour in São Paulo with Doris as our guide was exceptional. Her fluency in English ensured that everyone, including our visitor from the US, could fully engage and enjoy the experience. Doris's knowledge and enthusiasm truly made the tour memorable. We couldn't have asked for a better guide!
Doris was a great guide. Extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic. My girlfriend, who is an architect, also really enjoyed and admired Doris' knowledge. Would definitely recommend and will also use again in future trips!
I am an architect, and this was my first day in SP. Doris was knowledgeable, responsive, patient and passionate about modern architecture. Felt very comfortable and
Doris did an amazing job with our tour! We love how incredibly passionate she was about SP and the history behind everything! Time flew by so quickly we didn’t even realize that our 3 hours was up! I love seeing the rich culture of SP and by the end of the trip, I honestly could say I fell in love with SP. thank you Doris! You are amazing!
We spent several hours with Doris, who showed us the most important architectural highlights of Sao Paulo. Doris is knowledgable, smart and funny; a great person to guide us through town. She didn't hold back and put in plenty of political commentary which gave the tour an added dimension. I would recommend a tour with Doris very highly. Sao Paulo, to me, is not a city that shows you its' best easily, as places like Barcelona or Paris do. SP is a huge, sprawling, sometimes unattractive mass of humanity and to have someone like Doris help make sense of it for you is well worth the effort. We ended up loving Sao Paulo and it was mostly due to the quality of our guides.
around SP is responsive and professional. Both Luis and Doris are fluent English speakers and are very knowledgeable.
Excellent tour! Tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable 👍 We had pleasant trip to downtown and Ibirapuera Park visiting buildings designed by Niemeyer, Heep, Ohtake and others!
<p>Doris, our guide, was outstanding. Her charm, knowledge and driving skills were awesome and made our half day architectural tour of Sao Paulo exceedingly pleasant, even the large downpour towards the end of the afternoon could not dampen our spirits. Our guide's knowledge of the architecture of the city was much better than I had expected and her manner is also exceedingly pleasant, giving her charges a number of options for them to decide as it is impossible to see everything in an afternoon. We chose to look at modern architecture and we were amply rewarded with the buildings that we saw, including the Unique Hotel designed by .Ruy Ohtake, and other buildings designed the legendary Oscar Niemeyer see the picture with this review of the Ibirapuera Auditorium built in 2002-05.Many of his early works are concentrated in Ibirapuera Park, which establish to commemorate the city's 400th anniversary. Great guide, great tour, great city, great memories.</p>
Marco gave us an excellent tour of the entire city of São Paulo.
Great guide, super attentive and knows a lot. Sao Paulo was amazing for us and all thanks to her. I recommend Doris and I would go back to her without thinking.
