It serves directly 565 localities in all the states of Brazil, with the exception of Amazonas and Acre, as well as four countries (Uruguay, Paraguay, Argentina and Chile). It offers a special line to the airports of Congonhas and Guarulhos, and a ride sharing automobile service Sao Paulo - Santos.

    It is located at the Av. Cruzeiro do Sul, 1800, in the city district of Vila Guilherme.

    Bus station (Rodoviaria Tiete): Getting to Tiete Station
  • Tip Rating:
  • Great - you are taking a bus to go somewhere else: Rio, the countryside, Porto Alegre - so many options!

    But how do you get to the station? By subway! The subway station is actually inside the bus station - just a long hallway down.

    You can get in on any subway station - check the wall maps because you want to get to the Blue Line. The Station is Tiete. Once you leave the train, follow the wall signs pointing to "Rodoviária"

    Bus station (Rodoviaria Tiete): Terminal Rodoviario Tiete
  • Tip Rating:
  • It is the main bus terminal
    serving major national cities and some South American countries.

    Timetable and bus schedules:
    http://www.socicam.com.br/webflash/oricab.asp

    Cidade de origem = Depart city (S?o Paulo)

    Cidade - UF de destino = Arrival city

    Click on Enviar

    Click on the bus company name for bus schedule.

    NOTICE:
    Guich? = ticket office number (it's wrong on this site, so check the right one on: www.socicam.com.br/webflash/tiete1.htm#terminal)

    HOW TO GET THERE FROM THE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT: Take the Airport Service Bus "Rodovi?ria Ti?te" at the airport. Follow the crowd, take an escalator (or stairs if you are in a hurry. There is an elevator somewhere as well) and turn left. Good luck finding your bus ticket office!

    You can get lost there, it is indeed enormous, but quite organized and with many facilities like a subway station. the Terminal tiet~e is one of the few places in Brazil where you can go to any destination in the country!

    Travelling by bus in Brazil is much more common than travelling by train.

    Some days after my arrival from Canada I stopped in São Paulo to welcome my canadian friend Mike, and I left my mother there to continue her trip to Rio.

    Bus station (Rodoviaria Tiete): GRU to Tiete Station Center
    The metro line covers only a little part of the city. In your case it`s impossible to go from GRU to the TIÊTE bus station by metro, it doesn`t connect both localizations. I recommend you to take a bus named “Airport bus service” that will take you to the bus station. It’s safe and must cost about $20.You should google it and look for more information like schedule and prices. Good trip

    Bus station (Rodoviaria Tiete): Garcia Bus Line
    Two airports, Congonhas being the domestic hub, almost always delayed but not impossible. Can fly on GOL or TAM to many places for cheap, from $50 upwards. The buses in SP and Brasil in general are very good, use an executivo bus as it will be more comfortable and have a/c, there are also leito buses which recline into a bed for overnight trips...buses are a very efficient and relatively inexpensive way to get around Brasil.

    I have had good experiences with this company, note they only go to destinations in the southwest of the country.

    Bus station (Rodoviaria Tiete): Going souht by bus?
    If you're heading to Santa Catarina (Florianopolis, Camboriu and so on), the best buses are those by Catarinense (www.catarinense.net).
    Heading even further, Itapemirim (or Penha, tel: 0800-723-2122) goes all the way to Porto Alegre (costs about R$ 140), Pelotas and Rio Grande (www.itapemirim.com.br).

    Anyway ... I'd suggest to check the airlines out before you end up for hours in a bus. These are the cheapest options, as long as you buy the tickets way in advance: GOL (www.voegol.com.br), TAM (www.tam.com.br), BRA (www.voebra.com.br).
