Members Riobard Posted January 16, 2022 Members Posted January 16, 2022 To navigate via ride platform(s) between Guaruja and points west, and vice versa, Über to short ferry and complete the transaction, cross as foot passenger and order a new ride, correct? To avoid the very long circuitous route points north and so as not to unrealistically impose on a driver to navigate the crossing? I tried to use Über estimator without success. Maybe somebody knows. The only reference on our board was a traveller with a private vehicle utilizing the crossing which I understand to be no more than a few hundred metres. Quote
Members Riobard Posted February 5, 2022 Author Members Posted February 5, 2022 FWIW, though the ferry service site mentions only vehicles and bicycles, I recently discovered pedestrians may cross. If you are involving a ride service you would need to allow for the driver to wait and cross (at what price?) or do it in two stages. If you have long stay time on your hands a trip to Santos bus station (from Jabaquara Metro and it’s attached regional bus station) to visit the coffee museum and have lunch is a pleasant excursion. The bus is 70 minutes each way, dirt cheap, some dramatic scenery closer to the coast and glimpses down the estuary zone of huge swathes of beach high rise real estate. WTTW you do need to produce your passport for regional bus tickets, any private bus company for that matter, say, to Rio. The museum was the only place over a full month that requested CoV vaxx proof. Same idea bus service to Guaruja and other more beach-y points south. Personally I think it’s easier to pick between Guaruja alone by bus, or alternatively among the few points west of it, to avoid ferry crossing during any one excursion. One or the other zone different trips, as they are not huge distances or travel time from SP. Quote
