We invite you to take a journey with us and be introduced to the visitor-friendly tribe of Tenondé Porã who are eager to show their culture, customs, gatherings and dance performances.
After an hour and a half of the trip, arrive at a place where around 1,200 Guaraní live, who still preserve their ancestral customs and their own language, Guaraní. The families share rammed earth houses built in their reservation.
The tribe live in a demarcated land located at the southern extreme end of the city of São Paulo, where essentially, subsistence agriculture is practiced, which provides daily food.
Unlike tribes from remote north of Brazil that have greater visibility, urban Indians often struggle to be seen and heard due to the proximity to the largest urban areas in the country, but despite the hardships the Natives have faced in the last five centuries, they graciously allow guests to have a rare glimpse into their life and culture.
First, we will see the agricultural plantations of the Guaraní, where sweet potatoes, cassava and corn stand out. Then, we stroll through the village's territories, getting to know the flora and fauna of the area, see the children singing and having fun with typical dances or admire indigenous handicrafts. You will immerse yourself in the Guarani culture!
After the activities, savor a delicious Guarani lunch prepared in a wood-burning stove by the tribe's inhabitants.
After the meal, if there is still time and good wind, go on a 10-minute boat ride along the reservoir and visit a distillery with artisanal production of wines, liqueurs and cachaça of all types, as well as homemade sweets and cheeses. In a large place, with animals and a green area, the environment resembles a farm located in a quiet and familiar place.
Besides having an authentic pleasant experience, you will be causing a positive impact in the destination. By appreciating their culture and contributing to the local economy, you will be encouraging people, specially the young, to remain in their land and continue preserving their culture, traditions and the environment.

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.
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.
