Highly recommended photo tour
Victor is a fantastic guide who explains techniques for taking amazing photos with great patience. He has an excellent eye, and thanks to him I came away with incredible photos and unforgettable impressions. Anyone who wants to experience São Paulo’s daily life away from the typical tourist spots should book this tour. I would happily do it again anytime.

Try something new.
Had a tremendous morning with Victor wandering around Sao Paulo. Street photography is a new experience for me. Victor was very patient and his guidance was invaluable. The way he saw features in street scenes that I would have overlooked was eyeopening.

Wonderful day trip in Sao Paulo
I had a wonderful full-day walkabout street photography tour with Victor. He was really friendly and shared many good tips with me. He also ensured the day was smooth and arranged airport pickups for me as this was a long layover in Sao Paulo. Worth the premium price for the tour, will recommend to others!

Hope to see you again soon – who knows in Singapore sometime!

A great photo tour of Sampa !
I got the occasion for a photo tour in São Paulo and it was just great !
My guide Victor was so nice and helpful to make that tour a highlight of my brazilian holidays.
Perfect organisation, variety of locations and good tips on how to use all opportunities on the way.
It gave me the occasion to do some street photography witch is not my usual domain, but I really enjoyed it.
Thanks again for that very good moment !

I attended the street photography workshop with José Bassit and participate in the Clube da Rua, so I can say that both experiences have contributed a lot to my development and look at photography.

Open your eyes to the city!
Excellent tour, filled with good places to take photos and land the gaze in the middle of the daily run of São Paulo. Victor also provides some tips with the camera and is an inspiration to be in the middle with other fellow photographers. I recommend!
