Holambra Excursion
Description
Discover the enchanting Brazilian Flower City on this trip to Holambra. Here, vibrant fields filled with tulips, chrysanthemums, and daisies await your exploration. This is an experience you won't want to miss!
Description
Your journey begins with a hotel pickup in São Paulo at 8:30 am, with your sights set northward towards Holambra, also lovingly referred to as the City of Flowers.
The name of this municipality beautifully combines "Holland" and "Brazil," reflecting its origins founded by Dutch settlers longing for their native land. They brought to life a semblance of home, including tulip gardens and traditional windmills.
Approximately two hours later, you will reach Holambra and embark on your exploration. As you visit the flower farms, you’ll gain insights into the cultivation processes of various flower species, with opportunities to capture countless photographs amidst the vibrant flowerbeds. The variety, featuring Gerber daisies, daisies, and chrysanthemums, offers an array of scents and hues!
Your next activity will be a sightseeing tour around Holambra, where you'll encounter notable locations such as the Flower Market, Praça Van Gogh, the Pioneers House Museum, and Town Hall Square. Throughout this tour, you’ll unravel the stories of the Dutch immigrants who founded Holambra and uncover other cultural highlights of this São Paulo gem.
Your adventure will lead you to the Deck do Amor, a romantic pier situated by Vitoria Regia Lake, where couples can commemorate their love by attaching a padlock. You’ll also visit Moinho Povos Unidos, a recreation of a traditional Dutch water mill.
Following the city tour, you'll be granted some leisure time to enjoy lunch at your leisure or indulge in shopping before we make our way back to São Paulo, aiming to return to your hotel by around 3:30 pm.
