Christ the Redeemer - What an amazing experience travelling up to and visiting the statue of Christ the Redeemer made so much more relevant by the excellent depth of knowledge shared with the group by our guide Monica who was brilliant. Thank you Monica.

Excellent Tour with Exceptional Tour Guides!!! - Peter and Andrew were amazing tour guides. So much info about Rio packed into a partial day trip to see Christ the Redeemer. They helped find the best photo spots and helped with pictures. I loved that this trip allowed us to skip the crowds. Definitely a tour worth taking! Beautiful experience with excellent guides!

cristi redeemer and pao de azucar tour - The tour is very good since for the price it is very good, the guide explains everything with ease and is very complete in historical content, he also answers any more questions you may have and tells you extra information that is very curious, thanks to the guide Gabo and the driver Voldemor (if you are going to see macaques).

Great experience - The drive up to see Christ the Redeemer was an unexpected bonus. Peter, our guide, was first class. We were a small group, but we gelled well, thanks to his approach. His knowledge was great and his sense of humour entertained us. Would love to come back and do another tour.

VALUE ADDED!! - We chose this tour for the timing. Getting there early gave us a chance to take some great pics before the crowds arrive. Peter (our guide) and Voldemort (our driver) were superb companions. Met us at our pick up point right on time and provided great service for the duration of the tour. Peter has a great sense of humor and uses it while sharing information on the city and sights. To not visit this Wonder of the Modern World is like visiting Cairo and not visiting the pyramids. It’s a must do in our book and Carioca Tropical made it so easy. We didn’t wait in lines for the cable cars. With Peter we just breezed through like VIPs. He knew the best spots for photography (a big plus for us, personally). I’m sure it’s possible to make your way up the mountain solo, but this tour definitely added value to our visit.
