There is also private driver for groups bigger than six (6) people in addition to the guide.

 For long-distance trips, we may have to ask the state or federal road department authorization for taking open highways with big vehicles like vans and buses. Thus, in order to do that, it's required the list of all passengers and their passport or ID numbers at the time of the booking (Send it via e-mail after the booking). Therefore, it’s extremely important to book tours with long-distance pick-ups or drop-offs with at least 24 hours in advance. (valid for pick-up in Santos and trip to São Paulo with vans and buses)

 If big vehicles like a van or a bus is traveling without the required documents and the police pulls it over, the trip cannot continue. 

 For local pick-ups or drop-offs like airport or nearby cities, there is NO need of such list and passport or ID numbers.

 Such requirement is not necessary for small vehicles like sedans, minivans and SUVs.

 The tour guide themselves drives the vehicle in case of groups with up to six (6) people besides guiding and giving all the tour explanations. Groups bigger than six (6) people have also a private driver along with the tour guide.

 Midsize sedans

 Minivans

 44-seater buses

 Count starts from the pickup moment, no matter where you are.

 If you are in Santos or nearby and are going to take the tour in São Paulo, hire a number of hours taking into account the trip time to get to it from your place. E.G: If the pick-up location is at the seaport in the city of Santos, and it takes about 1:30h to reach São Paulo from Santos, the number of hired hours should be at least 8 hours in total. It is because 1:30h to reach the city of the tour (São Paulo), 5 hours of actual city tour and sightseeing, and plus 1:30 h to be returned to the city of Santos if that’s your final drop-off location.

 If you are NOT in Santos, and want to take this tour in São Paulo anyway, as soon as you enter the "pick-up" and "final drop-off " locations into the respective fields, the system adds automatically the proper minimum amount of hours to cover the transfers to pick you up wherever you are.

 The minimum amount of hours is not extremely accurate at the extent to take into consideration all of the unexpected elements that could cause delays like traffic, weather or long-distant pick-ups and drop-offs. So if you think the system does not calculate precisely the minimum amount of hours to cover the transfers plus the tour, you can adjust it increasing the number of hours in accordance with your interests. 

 The tour coverage depends on the number of hours hired by customers ranging from 8 to 10 hours, where in 10 hours you must pass by all or the majority of the suggested sights and can even go beyond.

 The tour is designed to be dynamic, and cover as many sights as possible. So there are NOT too many stops in order to try to get the most out of your available time. The guide must pass by the sight and explain a little bit of the history or any curiosity behind it, and drive to the next in the list, unless tourists want to have a deeper understanding, more stops for pictures, contemplation or exploration. 

 In case tourists want to have more stops for any reason or spend more time at a sight, it should impact on the tour coverage reducing the number of seen sights.

 The tour coverage depends on the tour rhythm as the guide goes at your pace, and also pretty much on the pick-up & drop-off locations.

 On the last Fridays of the months is celebrated the "Friday without car" where the city administration closes down the streets of historical downtown. So if your tour falls on a "Friday without car" day, the suggested itinerary should  be changed dramatically in the downtown. Either a bigger part of the itinerary is done on foot or part of the downtown should be skipped.

 Other adversities may also slow down the tour progress such as traffic jam, and the group size that determines the size of the vehicle. Bigger vehicles assigned for bigger groups tend to be slower, and thus cover less ground and sights.  

 Just fill out the “PICK-UP” and “FINAL DROP-OFF” location fields to have the price for the tour guide to pick you up wherever you are, take you on the tour, and return you back to your place afterwards. The booking system may automatically reject too long-distance pick-ups & drop-offs, as the tour may NOT be worth taking because of the trip time to the city of the tour. In this case, you can either select closer locations or get in touch with us for options.

 Have in mind that the tour guide may depart from Santos to pick you up at your place. So in case you are out of or far from Santos, consider the trip time from it to your city NOT booking short notice. 

 This field is to specify the number of hours the licensed private “TOUR GUIDE & VEHICLE” will be at your availability. The count starts from the pickup moment the tour has been set to get started at your hotel, port or any address you have chosen. 

 Tourists can hire this tour for between 8 and 10 hours. As São Paulo has a wide range of activities to do and sights to see, tourists can spend the entire day touring around the city.

 For pick-ups in the city of Santos, 8 hours should work well for a sum-up of São Paulo, and up to 10 hours if your intention is to have a broader idea of São Paulo.

 For pick-ups in cities like Guarujá or farther from São Paulo, 10 hours would be ideal. 

 If you want to have a break for a proper lunch at a restaurant, it should also be taken into account in order to select the right number of hours that the tour guide is going to be at your availability.

 Tourists who are at the port, and will take the tour in São Paulo and return to the port for taking the cruise afterwards, should set their pick-up time as early as possible. The pick-up should be set at around 8:00 or 8:30 in order for tourists to be returned back to the port with a reasonable margin of time before the cruise departure and to avoid rush time if it’s a weekday. 

 The road between Santos and São Paulo cuts through a mount range that quite often has heavy fog. When it happens, the road police drive in front of the vehicles slowing them down all the way through the foggy area in order to avoid accidents. This can cause 30 to 1:00 h delay in the trip. 

 It’s NOT recommended to take this tour just before or after a long weekend holiday. In periods of Christmas, New Year’s turn or long holidays as the traffic between the cities of São Paulo and Santos can be unbearable. A trip that usually takes 1:00 up to 1:20 h, can take 4:00 to 5:00 hours. In that case, it’s better to ask us about the traffic likelihood before booking. 

 Any time available on the timetable of the "PRICE FORM”. However, if you are in the city of Santos or nearby, we recommend to start the tour between 7:00 and 10:30 at the most, and around 17:00 or 18:00 already be back in Santos to avoid rush time. 

 It's also a good idea to avoid getting around in São Paulo on weekdays after 17:00 as traffic is awful.

 Tourists who will take the tour in São Paulo and return to the port for taking the cruise, should set their pick-up time the earliest possible.

 No, this tour is designed to be taken in daytime as sights visited during evenings are totally different from the suggested itinerary given for this tour.

 This tour is not aimed to get into museums and sights that charge admission fees unless tourists wish to attend them.

 The guide may decline to participate in high-priced activities that fall out of the scope of a regular tour such as going to fancy restaurants, dance clubs, nightclubs or anything out of a standard tour. In these cases, if customer wishes to have the guide as a permanent companion, the guide’s expenses should be covered by the customer. Otherwise, the guide must wait for the customer just nearby to continue on the tour afterwards.
