São Paulo Sao Paulo Airport Bus and Public Transportation
Posted: Sat March 7, 2009 11:35 PM UTC
Is there an airport bus from Guarulhos International Airport to Sheraton Sao Paulo World Trade Centre Hotel on Nacoes Unidas Ave in Brooklin Novo? If so, do you know where I'd be able to access the timetable and bus fare costs?

I would also like to know how to get to the Port of Santos for the Royal Carribean Cruise Line from the hotel mentioned above.

Since I have two days available, would I have enough time to make a side trip to Iguazu Falls?

I am from Belo Horizonte(MG) but my dead father was born in São Paulo.
I am not quite sure which is the best transportation from Guarulhos Airport to your hotel. However I got some hints:

http://www.starwoodhotels.com/sheraton/property/overview/contact.html?propertyID=3438

The upper link will enable you to contact the Hotel management in order to know which is the best way to move to Sheraton in Brooklin Novo.

I am sure the hotel will help you in going to Santos as well. I am sure subway would help you in reaching Santos but I suspect this is not the best way.

Two days visiting Iguazu Falls is quite reasonable.

Passaro Marron bus company serves from Guarulhos airport to some São Paulo's places. I am not sure which line would be OK for you. I believe the bus that serves Guarulhos airport to Itaim-Bibi shall be fine to you. Better you get sure with hotel management. They certainly may help you better than I.

Hi there, buddy.

The best way would be a cab. You're gonna spend around R$120. (around 40 min)

The cheapest way is to get the bus that goes to the Tatuapé Metro Station that is just in front of Guarulhos Airport Passenger's Terminal door.

Then get the metro in TATUAPÉ red metro line to BERRINI STATION blue train line (train and metro are integrated). (see a map of this here: http://www.metro.sp.gov.br/trajeto/trajeto.asp?origemId=182&destinoId=104) be ready to make some swaps.

as you can see here (http://migre.me/Jhr) the train station is very close to the hotel, you can walk. This option will take you almost two hours and you'll spend R$6.

Oh, Iguazu is like a two-hours flight plus a lot of hassle for such a small period. I would recommend you to get local in São Paulo, you're gonna be delighted.

Santos is very easy to go.

Get a cab or a bus to any metro station (always have a map and point the way to go to the cab drivers or they will try to fool you). get the metro and drop off at the JABAQUARA Station (metro blue line, extreme south), there's a big Bus Terminal there with buses every 15 minutes to Santos, the trip takes like an hour and a half, and costs around R$20. Be aware that the metro closes at 00:15.
