Wonderfully curated art tour!

5.00Carla was a wonderful guide, sharing with me the history of the city but also giving perspective to the different epochs and eras influencing the art and architecture of São Paulo. This is my fourth visit and I got to visit new neighborhoods and exclusive art galleries with her I haven’t seen before; would highly recommend this tour for those looking for a fresh experience of this vibrant city!
Amazing tour; Renato was a fantastic guide

5.00This was an amazing tour. I had high expectations for this tour and it exceeded them. Renato, my guide, was an expert in Brazilian art (I believe he is getting a PhD in an art-related field). He took me around to all the main art museums (Pina, MAC, MASP) and we did a VERY thorough overview of Brazilian art with a focus on modernism and contemporary art. It was very interesting, and I learned more in those few hours than I’d ever be able to learn on my own about Brazilian art, artists, and history. Renato even offered to stay extra time so we could see a few more things like the street art area, and we stopped at a few shops as well. He also gave me great restaurant recommendations. This was in a car (with a separate driver) and we drove to many different parts of town so it was also a good intro to the city in general. I’d highly recommend this tour with Renato to anyone interested in Brazilian art or modern art
Unforgettable experience

5.00The tour surpassed my expectations. Renato provided us access to places we would not have found or had access to on our own. He was extremely knowledgeable and very friendly. I highly recommend using his services if you have an interest in learning about Brazilian art.

5.00This was the highlight of our trip to Sao Paulo. The art and design scene here is phenomenal. This tour is a great opportunity to experience what it has to offer. Our guide Renato picked us up at our hotel and drove us to some amazing spots. He was friendly, funny, and passionate. He has an encyclopedic knowledge of Brazil, Sao Paolo, and all the artwork and design we experienced together. Without him, we would never have been able to see so much on one trip. We were safe and relaxed for the whole tour. My wife and I enjoyed Renato's tour so much, we book another one with him. Obrigado Renato! Can't recommend this tour enough!

5.00I fell in love with São Paulo thanks to Renato. I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is so knowledgeable and if he doesn't have the answer he'll find it. Don't visit São Paulo without him. I'll be back.
In-depth and enjoyable tour of art and design in Sao Paolo!

5.00Relalto was an outstanding tour guide! We saw so much in the art and design scene in Sao Paolo and he was unbelievable knowledgeable. His explanation of the history of Sao Paolo helped put everything into context. He was a pleasure to be with and I feel like I learned so much about Sao Paolo and about modern art and craft. I highly recommend him! If I return to Sao Paolo I hope to ake another tour with him!
