Itinerary
Upon pickup from your hotel by private vehicle, meet your knowledgeable guide and get to know the impressive architecture of São Paulo. As you tour the vibrant city, view buildings that display a wide variety of architectural designs, from colonial structures made out of taipa, a traditional Brazilian-style material, to modern constructions like the Unique Hotel, designed by São Paulo native Ruy Ohtake. Spot several European architectural styles developed since the mid-19th century and get to know Brazil’s 20th-century modernist school of architecture, which made the country famous throughout the world. Admire works by architects like Oscar Niemeyer, such as the Edifício Copan and see the São Paulo Museum of Art, developed by Lina Bo Bardi -- famous for her modernist Glass House in the Morumbi neighborhood.
