Incredible view - We went early, at one of the earliest times. It was excellent! no fuss, no long waiting time. It was very windy up there and it was cold! There isn't much to do other than take photos with the monument.

A must if you want a guide - A must do. They picked us up from the hotel. Very nice guide (English) who taught us lots of things. We arrive in the 1st so not too many people. We didn't queue. If you can afford to spend a little more than an Uber + guide I recommend

A great experience - Great experience, beautiful view. Take an Uber up and buy the tickets in the shop. There the tickets cost less than 60 reals in the off-season and a little over 80 reals in the high season. However, if you buy them outside, the tickets cost 180 reals

Great Adventure - Our tour guide, Aline, was fantastic. She explained the history of Rio as we headed to Christ the Redeemer. Aline was very knowledgeable and friendly. I would definitely recommend this company to friends and family. A shout out to Lino, our driver—he was very nice and a great driver. THANK YOU 🙏

Beautiful place, but there are too many people - Although it is the number 1 ride in Rio, it is too noisy, which takes away some of the shine. The climb through the alleys of Cosme Velho and the Tijuca Forest is cool, the panoramic view (very dependent on weather conditions) is stunning, but the number of people fighting for places to take photos is irritating and takes away from the essence of the tour.

Overpriced, entry tickets not included - Misleading, you are just paying for the travel to the statue where you only get around 40 minutes. The tour guide also spoke minimally about the view because many others were going to Sugar Loaf mountain after and would see similar views, so again using this tour option I didn’t get an actual tour. It is very overpriced considering this. I opted out of the journey back in order to spend more time at the statue and enjoy the cafe. I asked the operator to consider these factors and offer a partial refund but they said no. Yes the terms are listed in the T&Cs of the tour but for the price you would think entrance is included, something that is normal in most tours. My original booking was also cancelled as they didn’t have availability. They didn’t let me know until the evening before either so I had to re-arrange my plans last minute. I wish I just cancelled now!!!!

Poor description tour - The driver Valdemar and guide Sabina were great, very friendly, and helpful. However, we purchased this tour by the title: " Corcovado and Christ Statue," but they never mentioned this is JUST the ride to the place. It does not include any entrance. So DON'T buy this if you want to go to the Christ. This is a poor description of what you will get. The title should have said: TRANSPORTATION ONLY to the Sugarloaf & Christ! You either buy a full package with transportation and entrance included or get this transportation ticket and be willing to pay additional there.
