São Paulo was strongly influenced by immigrants from all over the world, which is why it has a unique cityscape. The Catedral Metropolitana de São Paulo, for example, has European influences with its double tower and dome. The majestic city cathedral was only built in the 20th century and inspired by the Gothic style. A road lined with palm trees leads to the impressive building.

In Brazil, many roads are toll, including the roads leading to São Paulo, Via Dutra and Rodovia dos Imigrantes. Drivers pay the toll directly at the toll booths of the respective road. You should always carry cash with you, as credit cards are rarely accepted here.
Thanks to an automatically included liability insurance every hired car in São Paulo is well insured. Take a look at the rental conditions to find out the sum insured under the liability insurance. This should amount to at least one million euros. In addition, we offer further insurances that you can take out voluntarily. These include:
When hiring a vehicle we recommend comprehensive insurance without excess. The insurance premium here is slightly higher than with insurance with excess, but in case of damage, no additional costs come to you. If a scratch or other damage to the car occurs during your rental period, the car hire company will retain the amount as an excess. The money will be deducted from your deposit. Tenants who have taken out fully comprehensive insurance without a deductible will subsequently receive the deductible back from their car hire broker.
A reputable car hire usually requires a deposit, as it protects itself. The amount will be deducted directly from your credit card on site. A cash payment of the deposit is only possible in exceptional cases. As soon as you hand over the hired car without damage to the car hire, you will receive the deposit for the hired car back.
The one-way rental allows you to explore Brazil on your own. You pick up the hired car at one of the car hire stations and return it to a second one. That is why you are particularly flexible on the road with a one-way rental. Through our portal, you can compare all offers and find out which landlords offer particularly favourable one-way rentals. As the fifth largest country in the world, Brazil offers numerous attractive excursion destinations. For example, if you hire a car along the Atlantic coast, from São Paulo you can reach Rio de Janeiro. Those who set off inland can visit the capital Brasilia. It is also possible to hire a car in the city centre and drive to the airport.
