Accommodation

We've been very satisfied making short-term apartment rentals through AirBnB, in São Paulo and other cities in Brazil.

Ok. Thanks for the information. I appreciate

Yes, AirBNB like abthree mentioned is the best option. I recommend Pnheiros, Vila Madalena, Jardins and Itaim Bibi neighbourhoods (shops near by, quite safe,  great restaurants and easy to go to any part of town). You can get an appartment for USD 280 for one week

Thanks Gaby. I appreciate your message and recommendation. I will look at it. I also learnt  ”Avanhandava/Mancini”, it's a touristic street and quite safe too. Is  ”Avanhandava/Mancini” close or in the neighbourhoods of Pnheiros, Vila Madalena, Jardins and Itaim Bibi. It's a family trip (Myself and Wife), so safety is of utmost importance to me. Thats why I am making much inquiry to get the best of services and pleasures around safe places. Thanks

Rua Avanhadava is a short street of restaurants, several of which belong to the Mancini family, near Centro, the Historic Center of São Paulo.  The street itself is pretty safe, and you can get a good (but expensive) dinner at the restaurants, but Centro is not as good a choice in terms of security as the neighborhoods Gaby recommended, where I'm sure you can find equally good restaurants.

Thanks so much for your response. I appreciate. These locations recommended by Gaby, are they close or in the neighborhood of tourist attractions in Sao Paulo ? What tourist attractions can one find around them ? Apologies on lots of questions, I wish to explore the place and would appreciate if I got a tour guide.
