  • The traffic in São Paulo is worse and dangerous. So streets are hardly to use in the rushhour. Think twice if you´ll need a car there.

    Specially if you live in distant neighborhood, a car is absolutely necessary, and thanks god the roads in São Paulo are excellent, but as in any big city (Hallo Montreal!!! HALLO LOS ANGELES) the trafic is packed! This day my cousin Isabel was taking my mother to see her new flat in the city centre! We were in my car where Marcio Omatsu took the picture!;) We were driving in the Avenida Ayrton Senna! Honor given to our great Formula One pilot Ayrton Senna who died in Italy in a Grandprix!

  • That's the wicked side of São Paulo. The city is big and the public transportation is not so good. The best way to know the city is by car.

    Sao Paulo is one of the largest cities in the world, so pedestrians don’t typically get very far. However, I’ve never seen more cars or more one-way, confusing streets than in Sao Paulo. If you can, I would highly recommend hiring a driver for your time in Sao Paulo (we did and it was WONDERFUL; see Joao in the photo). Buses and taxis might also be recommendable, but might get expensive. And don't forget the metro!

    Driving in Sao Paulo can be an interesting experience. However, I wouldn't do it unless you are with a local who knows the rules (what rules there are) and the direction. Sao Paulo is a dangerous place and a lost tourist in a rental car is not a good thing. Also, the "rules" of the road in Sao Paulo, and Brazil in general, are quite different than those in other parts of the world. You'll want to watch out for motorcycles -- they can really get in the way. If they do, it's your fault.

    Taxi, cars - own or hired: High Traffic... It sucks!

  • Sao Paulo has 5 million cars. Can you just imagine millions of cars going around everyday? The city has many expressways, HUGE avenues sometimes with 5 lanes to each direction... but, it doesn´t matter... the traffic is VERY heavy, especially from 7-10am and 5-8pm. Motorcycle drivers, bus drivers and truck drivers are the worst part of the city´s traffic... they´re unrespectful and are very rude. My tip... when stopped in the traffic... listen to the radio... the city has excellent radio stations. Or just look around and see if you find any cuties to flirt with haha!

    Taxi, cars - own or hired: Bad public transport.

  • It's a very big city and to get from one point to the other, you'll probably need some transport. Walking there isn't very nice, because of the big quantity of cars,buses and so...buses come and go...and u don't know exactly when. The public transport is mostly populated with the poorest people..or just those who don't have cars...so you also have to be careful...what to wear,what to take with u etc....the subway is very nice and modern, but it's small...and u can't get to all the places with it. You could rent a car, but you should know the streets and take much care...it's a caos...too many cars and also those motoboys that come from all sides and u can't always see them. Taxis are a good choice, because they aren't to expensive...but remember: don't get a car at 6o'clock in the morning and afternoon...'cause these are rush hours...oh...and at lunch time too.
