Holambra Excursion

Discover the enchanting Brazilian city known for its floral beauty on this trip to Holambra. Prepare to be amazed by vibrant fields filled with tulips, chrysanthemums, and daisies... A visit you won't want to miss!

Description

Your journey begins with a pick-up from your accommodation in São Paulo at 8:30 am, as you travel north to the charming Holambra, affectionately referred to as the City of Flowers.

Interestingly, the town's name is derived from the fusion of "Holland" and "Brazil". This delightful locale was established by Dutch immigrants longing for their homeland, leading to the creation of beautiful tulip gardens and iconic windmills.

After approximately two hours on the road, we'll arrive in Holambra and commence our exploration. Touring the flower farms, we'll delve into the various stages of cultivation for each plant type, and you'll have plenty of opportunities to capture stunning photographs amid the blooming gardens. With varieties like Gerber daisies, daisies, and chrysanthemums, you're in for a feast of colors and fragrances!

Next, we will embark on a scenic tour of Holambra to visit notable landmarks such as the Flower Market, Van Gogh Square, the Pioneers House Museum, and Town Hall Square. During our journey, we will uncover the rich history of the Dutch settlers who laid the foundations of Holambra, along with various cultural insights about this picturesque location in São Paulo.

Afterward, we will visit the Deck do Amor, a lovely pier on the shores of Vitoria Regia Lake, where couples commemorate their love by attaching a padlock. Additionally, we will stop by Moinho Povos Unidos, a replica of a traditional Dutch windmill.

Once the city tour is complete, you'll have some leisure time to enjoy lunch at your own pace or to shop before returning to São Paulo, with a drop-off back at your hotel planned for around 3:30 pm.
