All international flights fly to Guarulhos Airport, from where you can take a prepaid taxi to central São Paulo. Another option is to take a shuttle bus that departs every half hour, with a journey time of about 50 minutes.

Most of the city's tourist-oriented neighborhoods such as Centro and Jardins are compact enough to walk around in. For elsewhere you'll need to take the metro.
