This was easily the worse tour experience I have ever had, especially for the price, which at the time I took the tour was over US$500 for two people. 1. The tour guide did speak English, but not very well. Kudos to him for learning more than one language, but the experience led to much confusion and a diminished experience. 2. The "historic cultural downtown" was a drive by and hand wave. 3. The Monte Serrat funicular was ok but we had all figured out by then that the language barrier was going to be a problem. I learned more by looking at the Wikipedia page after the tour. 3. The Coffee Museum was somewhat interesting but again the tour guide skipped through a lot of the exhibits because of the language barrier. 4. We chose to skip the Santos Beach because he said it was not as good as the Guaruja beach. Why would that even be a tour stop? 5. We did go to Guaruja beach which was.....fine. It's not any better or worse than any other Caribbean beach other than the water is colder. We ordered fried shrimp and they brought peel-n-eat shrimp that was not deveined. The meat filled pastry was a little better but greasy. I did love the pina colada made from fresh fruit. 6. The last stop was a lookout point over the Guaruja beach. That had pretty views. The tour lasted 6 hours - off the ship at 9 am and back to the ship by 3 pm, so we paid nearly $100/hour for a bad tour. Other people on our cruise paid US$30 for a taxi to Santos Beach, or a little more for a taxi Guaruja Beach. Should we ever return to Santos, we will do the same or just stay on the ship. This tour is a terrible value.

Our guide, Nelio, showed up 5 minutes before the designated meeting time, he is a good driver and speaks excellent English. We visited some great sightseeing points and museums, Nelio is knowledgeable about the region and its history, he explained things very well and answered all of our questions.

Márcio is an exceptional guide, who provided me an extended tour of southern SP in and around Santos at the very last minute. I booked this tour less than 30 minutes before he picked me up at my hotel. He speaks excellent English (as well as multiple other languages) and customized/personalized the tour exactly to my liking. He showed me an incredible restaurant in São Vicente and shared his extensive knowledge of history and culture in SP. I cannot recommend him and GregTurs highly enough. This was an OUTSTANDING TOUR AND MARCIO IS AMAZING ❤️

I was very happy to do this tour, it’s a beautiful drive outside São Paulo that takes you to the beach which would be difficult for a tourist to do without a knowledgeable guide. I felt very comfortable in a nice vehicle and my guide let me decide on many options to make my experience most best. He also made sure to bring back in time for a early dinner I had planned which I was very appreciative of. Obrigado!

The guide Fabio was very friendly, his English, historical knowledge, driving skills were excellent. He was flexible with us and fulfilled our needs. He was not only a tour guide or a driver , he was a passionate person sharing with us Brazilian experience and vibe. I would recommend this trip and Fabio as a guide as it was a memorable time which stays with us forever.

Danilo took us on this amazing tour. We had had him as our guide on a different tour the day before and were delighted to find we had him again. He was a very responsive and flexible guide tailoring the tour to us. He quickly picked up what we were interested in. We drove to the port of Santos and Danilo gave us a tour of the historic centre and a fascinating explanation about it’s history and culture. We could have visited other places there but we were keen to maximise our time on the beach in Guaruja so we briefly visited the beach and port area of Santos and then took the ferry to to Guaruja. Danilo took us to a beautiful, idyllic part of the beach and we had a fabulous afternoon there. He gave us space to enjoy the beach as a family whilst looking after us beautifully. Santos and the beach were quite a drive from the city. Danilo was a great driver. We thoroughly enjoyed Danilo’s thoughtful, interesting and informative conversation and the time flew. His English is absolutely excellent. My husband and 2 grown up daughters loved the tour and thought Danilo was an excellent and lovely guide. It was a truly memorable day. We all felt sad to say goodbye to Danilo. I cannot recommend this tour and Danilo as a guide too highly.

Strongly recommend tour guide Nelio! He is excellent english-speaking guide with lots of knowledge to share of Brazil history, culture and of course the sights to see in and around Sao Paulo. We were in safe hands everywhere we went, he is an excellent driver and knew his way around. He was also open to our requests to see some less-touristy spots, and we spent a very memorable day at a beautiful (bit hidden) beach. On the way he made sure we had enough stops and options for good food (and fruits on the way!) & fresh beverages. He is also inspiring with his learn-something-new-everyday approach! Very grateful for the experience and his time.

We had a fabulous time visiting the beaches in Brazil with our guide Dennis. He was very personable, knew the city well and was able to show us some great views. Highly recommend this tour and would also recommend you request Dennis as your guide!

Nelio was a great tour guide and companion throughout the day. He engaged with us easily, showed us all sorts of great sites and was very pleasant to be with (even when he had to deal with driving through very dense fog!). To get 5 out of 5 on the rating, we'd recommend that some different food options at the beach were available. We were set up with a table, umbrella, menus and beer (!) but the fried food wasn't really to our liking. It's possible that there were other fresher options on the menu and it would have been great if Nelio could have given us a sense for the range of food so we could have gotten food that was more appealing to us. We would definitely recommend the tour!

The private tour gave us the opportunity to spend more time at the beach like we wanted, sun tan and drink caipirinhas! Adi, our tour guide, was really nice,knew lots of information and chat with us throughout the whole trip. We loved this day tour; getting to know Santos and Guaraju is a most!

Today was an amazing day with another great tour guide in Denis. We visited Guarujá and Santos. The weather was perfect and beaches were amazing. The water was super warm. After the tour of beaches I went paragliding for the first time which was amazing. After we ate lunch at a beautiful restaurant that looked over the beachfront. Then we visited the coffee museum and my goodness right when you walk in you smell the amazing coffee. Also Denis knows a lot about coffee since he makes his own. Today was another perfect day in the beautiful country of Brazil.

This trip was the one of the highlights of our time in Brazil! Denise and Galhardo (driver) took such good care of us! This trip takes you to Santos and the coffee museum (yum!). While there, you can visit a church built in the 1600's which has breathtaking art and master craftsmanship. It is a jewel in this historic town. Then, travel to São Vicente for a spectacular view and take the lift to the top of a mountain for a little extra fun...you may get lucky and get to see a monkey or two! From there, we traveled to an exclusive beach where you can sit, relax, and enjoy the beautiful ocean while spending time with family and friends. The service provided by Denis is truly top notch. The entire day Denis and his driver took care of our every need. It was a hassle-free day and extremely relaxing! This tour is a must!

It was a spectacular day, we were in 8 people, 4 from the USA and 4 from Brazil. It was the first time that these Americans visited Brazil, they loved the food, the culture, the delicate form of attention and service of the people, leaving them feeling more welcome here. The tour of the cities of Santos, São Vicente and Guarujá was excellent, including the coffee museum, the cable car, porchat island and the enseada beach in Guaruja. On that day tour guide Denis and his partner driver (Galhardo) were excellent service providers served above prospects, and representative Renato of Gregtur Agency, was an essential person in our week in the kind attending the best possible way, offering great tours for us. Thank you very much for each who participated in some way in our week in Brazil, in various tours. We strongly recommend the Gregtour Agency and their employees.

We (group of 7 people from Serbia, Croatia and Romania) enjoyed our visit to Santos and Guaruja. Our daily trip from Sao Paulo was a very interesting experience covering some of our favourite things: Santos Coffee (which is a famous sign of quality in our countries) and beautiful Brazilian beaches of Guaruja which indeed are just as beautiful as one may imagine any tropical paradise beach. :) Our guide (Bruno) was amazingly careful, knowledgeable and was quite helpful along our way and he gave insightful explanations about the sights along the way. We also felt very safe with our driver Severino in charge of our very comfortable ride. All in all - we’d recommend this trip to anyone coming to Sao Paulo for 3 or more days! :)
