Santos visit - We booked a private tour with Nelio. He was amazing. We had such a great experience. He took us to all the important sites and to a beautiful restaurant with an amazing view for lunch. Very friendly, not rushed and very professional. I highly recommend this company and ask to book with Nelio.

Fantastic Santos Guide - We had a great experience with Gregtur travel. From the beginning they were easy to work with and to book the tour. Responses were timely and helpful. All info was provided before we arrived in port and our tour guide was on time and ready to help us. Danilo was a fantastic guide. He was great with my kids and was so knowledgeable about santos. He took us to a great lunch and made the most out of day. Ending with a timely drop off at the airport. Everything was perfect.

Marvellous Santos - Wow. What more can I say? Our guide, Mary, was so good in articulating the very essence of why Santos is such a special city in Brazil. The city is relatively small but huge in its impact in Brazil's rich tapestry of history. From Monte Serrat' funicular and breath-taking island views to Calcadao da Orla de Santos fantastic beachside promenade, The Pelé museum, etc. we had such a wonderful 6 hours exploring the past, present and aspirational future of Santos. Mary used her vast experience and local knowledge of the city to highlight important milestones and people which included locations in the Old Town, Financial District, with key stops including the Coffee Museum. We would highly recommend this tour, especially even more so with Mary.

Lovely day in Santos - We had an excellent private tour of the Santos highlights!
Our Guide, Nathalia, was great and knowledgeable.
Our Driver , Odilon, was also great and helpful.
We weren’t able to see the Pele museum due to heavy rain, but it was a great tour, that was flexible.
We had some tasty Pastel
From a reputable street vendor, Coffee at the coffee museum that was amazing.
Best things about this tour were the flexibility and the private tour, so we had a very comfortable tour.
We really didn’t know what we wanted to see, but once we told our guide to just lead the way and take us to the most important stops, we were on our way. Highly recommend.
