Two Countries in One Day
Campos do Jordao is a trip to the Dutch area of Europe while still in Brasil. Nicely appointed German style buildings and atmosphere takes you to another dimension of the world and yet not having to fly there to experience it.

Amazing Nelio!!
My review is long so, in short, the AroundSP company is very professional and Nelio is amazing! Long story- I did the day trip to Campos do Jordao with Nelio. He was amazing and very professional. He began the tour by picking me up at the hotel- he was early, which is always nice. The front desk called, and I went right down. He immediately began by asking me what I wanted to do at Campos do Jordao. He changes the tour based upon YOUR interests, so if you want to go to somewhere, or don’t want to go somewhere, he is flexible. His goal was clear- to make sure that I had a great experience. And he was successful! During the drive, we drove through fog - Nelio told me that this was fog from Antarctica how cool (forgive the pun) is that?! He was knowledgeable about many different things about Brazil and about Campos do Jordao. In fact, he even took me to the governor’s palace where the tour is ONLY in Portuguese - but he provided a summary translation just for me in English. I felt like I was really able to enjoy everything as a result. Campos do Jordao has a winter festival, and this caused the microbrewery to be closed, this was fine with me but I really wanted to try the beer. Nelio made this a mission! Really, he wanted everything to be perfect. The beer was amazing. Additionally, I ask a lot of questions, and he knew something for every single question. This tour has a fair amount of driving, and he was a great conversationalist! He also was willing to take my picture everywhere! If you want photos, he is fantastic! There was a lot that I wanted to see and do, and actually, the tour was supposed to be only 9 hours, but Nelio made sure that I got to see and do EVERYTHING that I wanted. He said that he didn’t want me to go home having any regrets about the trip, and genuinely, meant this. Many guides would rush because of the traffic or because the tour is 9 hours or what not. He did not do this — instead the tour went long, because there was a lot I wanted to see. He did not complain at all, and was just happy that I had a good time. One slight recommendation for this tour - make sure dress in layers as the weather may shock you! It is said to be very cold and all my coworkers in the US told me to prepare to be cold, but actually, today when I went it was hot! Haha! Also if you want a cool souvenir - I recommend the chocolate from the chocolate factory (pictured) - this chocolate is in the shape of the gate you go through to get to the city. In sum, I really am grateful to AroundSP for this trip. I had an amazing time and Nelio was really, really wonderful!
Response from the operator: Thanks very much for spending your time to leave us this amazing message. Nelio was very happy to know that you have had a fantastic day with him. If you come again to São Paulo, make sure to get in touch with us! Kind regards

Private Day Trip to Campos do Jordão from São Paulo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sao Paulo.
How much does Private Day Trip to Campos do Jordão from São Paulo cost?
+
Prices start at $330 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sao Paulo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Day Trip to Campos do Jordão from São Paulo take?
+
Plan for about 9 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Sao Paulo is not rushed.
Is Private Day Trip to Campos do Jordão from São Paulo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sao Paulo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Day Trip to Campos do Jordão from São Paulo?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Day Trip to Campos do Jordão from São Paulo suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Day Trip to Campos do Jordão from São Paulo?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Sao Paulo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Sao Paulo and add a light layer if any part of the 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Day Trip to Campos do Jordão from São Paulo start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Sao Paulo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Sao Paulo?
+
On Outty we rank every Sao Paulo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Rio in One Day: Christ Redeemer, Sugarloaf & Local Lunch, 5-hour Private Tour Of São Paulo With Its Main Sights – Optional Airport Pickup, 6-Hour Classic Half-Day Private Tour of São Paulo – Optional Airport Pickup. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Sao Paulo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Sao Paulo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
