About This Tour

A private half-day tour with a driver-guide covering São Paulo's must-see landmarks, from Paulista Avenue to the historic Sé Cathedral and Municipal Market, with optional airport pickup. Alongside a private driver-guide, cover São Paulo's essential landmarks at a comfortable pace — the financial heart of Avenida Paulista, the Gothic Sé Cathedral downtown, and the 1933 Municipal Market. Your guide tailors the exact stops and order around your interests and the time available.

The Catedral da Sé looks centuries old, but it is a 20th-century build. Work on the Neo-Gothic design by Maximilian Emil Hehl began in 1913, the cathedral was inaugurated on 25 January 1954 to mark the city's 400th anniversary, and it was generally considered finished only around 1967. It is commonly cited as holding around 8,000 worshippers, and its seven-rose-window stained-glass facade and turrets were added in a restoration completed in 2002.

A short walk away, the Mercado Municipal opened on 25 January 1933 to a design by Francisco Ramos de Azevedo. Its stained-glass panels are signed by Conrado Sorgenicht Filho, an artist also credited with glasswork in the Sé. The market grew up feeding porters and traders, which is why its signature mortadella sandwich is built so absurdly tall.

The Liberdade stop reflects a migration story: the Kasato Maru reached Santos on 18 June 1908 with 793 Japanese immigrants, and Brazil now has the largest Japanese-descended community outside Japan. Liberdade is where that community gathered and opened businesses, and its lanterns and shopfronts are the visible result.
