Standing on an island, Santos is best known
plenty of shops, and a very relaxed, friendly atmosphere. One of the city's
most attractive features is the Orchid Gardens. This serene and shady oasis
boasts a wide variety of lush, tropical vegetation, a bird sanctuary and an
open-air cage containing humming birds of 20 different species.
Santos serves as the gateway to Sao Paulo. Sao Paulo lays claim to have
long surpassed Rio as Brazil's cultural center, and is home to a lively
music and arts world.
Caution: Beware of pickpockets
around the beaches and on crowded sidewalks. Don't wear expensive watches or
jewelry or carry large sums of money on you when going ashore.

dock at the port of Santos. It is about a 10-minute drive to downtown

fare before departing the port. The distance to Sao Paulo is 45 miles.
