A private walking tour through São Paulo's historic center, tracing the city's growth from a small colonial settlement to the largest metropolis in the Southern Hemisphere. On foot with a private guide, trace São Paulo's growth from a small 16th-century Jesuit settlement into the largest city in the Southern Hemisphere.

Walking the Pátio do Colégio, you stand on the spot where São Paulo began on 25 January 1554 with a Jesuit Mass. The original mud-and-wattle building was partly demolished and modified in 1896, completely demolished in 1953, and rebuilt between 1954 and 1979 inspired by the original.
The financial story starts in 1890, when brokers formed an early exchange, the Bolsa Livre; it did not survive the 1891 financial crisis, and an official exchange was set up in 1895. In 1934 the exchange moved to the Palácio do Café and took the name Bovespa. After mergers in 2008 and 2017 it became today's B3.
On foot you can read the layers: colonial origins, coffee-era finance, and the 20th-century towers that replaced low colonial streets. Pace and stops are set by your guide on the day.
