Fantastic tour and guide !!
Erika_M, Jan 2023
I had a wonderful time in this trip to Cristo. I highly recommend this service. The air conditioned van picks you up early and brings you right to the destination with help of a fantastic guide. Don’t hesitate!!

Thank You! it was our pleasure to show you Rio.
Disappointing
Jasmine_L, Sep 2022
The tour we booked was combined with a different tour group who had a full day tour. For a 3hr tour, I had expected to stay at Christ the Redeemer longer. We stayed only 45 min since the other group had more sites to see. Also had to wait while the other group was dropped off at Sugar Loaf before we could return to our hotel. Felt like a lot of time was wasted especially when we were not one of the first to arrive at Corcovado. The place was already packed.
Response from Host, Nov 2022
Hi Jasmine, we are very sorry. On the description of your tour it says you stay 45 min at the top of the Monument. Christ Statue is number one attraction in Rio and during a holiday is really packed since they open. But I hope you enjoyed the view and enjoyed Rio.

It was pouring the day of the tour, other people with reservations cancelled, but my guide Kiko and driver Flavio made sure I had the greatest time. And I did! For a couple minutes it was just me and the Cristo. A memorable and touching experience

Dear Keyla, thank you very much for taking your time to review us. Great that even with bad weather your enjoined your tour. 😃 regards, Gisela
Excellent tour
Karen_H, Oct 2018
Great pre tour information re our hotel pick up time. Good driver. Gisele was an efficient and helpful tour guide. It was easy for us to buy the entrance ticket with the credit card. We were one of the first to reach the Christ the Redeemer statue on a day with clear blue skies. This gave us stunning views of the surrounding area. The statue itself is very impressive and well worth a photo. The road trip up and down was also interesting. We were delivered back to our hotel in good time via a comfortable van.

Top class tour
Peter_R, Jun 2018
We went on the early morning half day tour which promises to get you to Christ the Redeemer statue before the crowds. Well I thought it was too good to be true but we were actually the first group at the entrance to the park and therefore the first ones to get to the top. And it was well worth it to get those amazing views and pictures without hords of others blocking your shot. Our guide and fellow travelers were great too. The small group mixed well, would highly recommend to others.

This was great, we were the first people in the morning to visit Christ the Redeemer, it opened 8.00am so we had pictures without any crowds. Great informative guide. This trip is highly recommended. David Brisbane Australia.

The Christ statue visit was...
Liane U, Sep 2016
The Christ statue visit was wonderful despite the bad weather. We were just shocked to be told by the tour guide that our tour was over immediately afterwards that there were no Other 6 Attractions for us to participate in, so we were dropped at our hotel! Something is wrong with the organisation as we were also only picked 30 min after the nominated time.

What an Excellent Tour!! A great way...
charles l, Sep 2016
What an Excellent Tour!! A great way to see the City of Rio!! I strongly suggest the 7AM tour - as it gets to Cristo at 8AM for opening. Within 1 hour, it was very busy and hard to take pictures. Bring cash, as the shops at the top have internet issues. The shop at the bottom is overpriced. We had Katia Kathy as our Guide. She was an incredible delight!! Definitely takes pride in her job. And was always available to assist in picture-taking. Knowledge about the drive up/back to Cristo, and available for questions.

John W, Sep 2016
We enjoyed this excursion to Corcovado very much. Our guide, Kiko, was ready for us as we arrived to the pickup point 10 minutes early bonus points! and provided us an enjoyable, descriptive trip to the mountain. We had plenty of time to see the statue before the clouds and the crowds rolled in. Definitely the highlight of our trip to Rio.
