Good ride to São Paulo hotels!
Great driver with great communication. Only thing is we almost didn’t fit in the car. Be specific about your party size and bags.

Thank you
They were fantastic! Waited for us longer than the allotted time due to delays in the airport. Grateful for an easy experience!
Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thank you for your valuable comment. We are glad that you had such a wonderful experience. Kind Regards

Stay Away From VIATOR!
I had an international flight into Sao Paulo with an arrival time of 6:35PM. By the time I got off the plane, cleared customs, collected my bags and was cleared out of baggage claim it was 7:45PM. The driver said he waited until 7:33 and left. The company, to date, has not issued a refund because they said the driver was there. IF they think you can complete the landing /customs/baggage claim in under an hour- Viator needs to get out of the airport transport business. I will dispute this with my credit card company.
Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thank you for reaching us and we are sorry to hear you have an uncomfortable experience. Should you need further assistance, please contact us by email “qa@elifelimo.com” and provide the relevant order information so that we can investigate Best Regards

Do NOT use this company.
Our named driver did not meet us at airport. He sent someone else. Car was way too small for 4 people with luggage. The number of people and luggage was clearly stated in my booking and on-line text with original driver. New driver claimed no SUV or shuttle van, as pictured in our confirmation, was available in Brazil! He did not speak English (as requested) and we had to communicate back & forth thru Google. We ended up stuck at the airport. Even though I booked and already paid for transportation for 4 adults from the airport, I had to pay for a second taxi to get us all to our hotel. This company should not be listed on Viator site, and I definitely do not recommend it.

My Other Travel Reservation
I was a bit nervous initially as our travel required making two separate reservations. This service was EXCELLENT in servicing our needs. Our travel experience was truly WONDERFUL!!! Viator (specifically the driver) was extremely Professional and provided my wife and I with the reassurance we needed while traveling in a foreign country for the first time. . We fully appreciated the timelines, the courtesy, and the attentiveness to all the details provided by Viator. Trust! During any of my future travels I will not hesitate to contact Viator to assist with my travel needs.
Response from the operator: Dear Guest, Thank you for your valuable comment. We are glad that you had such a wonderful experience. Kind Regards

Sao Paulo: GRU Airport Private Transfer to/from City Center: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Sao Paulo.
How much does Sao Paulo: GRU Airport Private Transfer to/from City Center cost?
+
Prices start at $21 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 Sao Paulo: GRU Airport Private Transfer to/from City Center take?
+
Plan for about 0.4 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 Sao Paulo: GRU Airport Private Transfer to/from City Center worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3.3/5 across 27 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 Sao Paulo: GRU Airport Private Transfer to/from City Center?
+
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 Sao Paulo: GRU Airport Private Transfer to/from City Center suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 0.4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Sao Paulo: GRU Airport Private Transfer to/from City Center?
+
Around 9 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 0.4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sao Paulo: GRU Airport Private Transfer to/from City Center 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.
