I traveled last year for vacation. I went alone for seven days. I got around using the metro and buses - to and from the airport, as well as for long-distance trips to Rio de Janeiro. I love this city, there is a lot to see and many beautiful places.
Posted: September 13, 2023I spent a few days alone in São Paulo. The biggest struggle for me was Portuguese. I cycled around the city, which was really great, and I also discovered three beaches on a walking tour. I was there during the carnival and I would recommend everyone to experience the carnival at least once in their life. I spent the whole day walking around various Blocos de Rua (street carnivals) and always felt very safe.

It's a city that requires a lot of attention, specially at night. I would recommend to walk with somebody else with you and don't have expensive belongings with you. Don't talk on the phone while on the streets

Sao Paulo is a big city and so it has its risks. I never leave my place without self-defense items, but, yeah, i dont let it stop me from going out and enjoying until later at night, tho. I’ve only been robbed once in like 8 years ago.
