Christ the Redeemer and Selaron Half-Day City Tour

Our tour guide Fernando was amazing! He was so kind to me and my family. He made sure we got to the location safe and sound and was great with answering questions and keeping us informed about Rio. He made sure we go the best views at Christ the redeemer and the steps and took great photos of us that he shared with us. He also assisted us in translation when needed when we were purchasing goods from the markets. It was a great time and we enjoyed ourselves. I would definitely book him again. Please book if you’re looking for a great time!

The tour leader was confused about what the tour included. He thought we had to purchase tickets for Christ the redeemer when we already paid and it was included. He said we were taking the train up the mountain and when we arrived there he said it was changed and now we were taking a car and then a van. Really unprepared.

Marlady was our tour guide and Gege was our driver. They were both so great. Marlady made it so much fun. She is also very caring. One of the people got sick and she was attending to her like a mom would. Great experience!

Wonderful tour of Christ the Redeemer and the Selarón Steps and would definitely recommend! Wagner was a kind and wonderful guide. He was also super knowledgeable and made every step of the tour easy! He even walked us through Santa Teresa where we learned more about the area and got to go through the shops and cafes. Timing wise - although the tour time we selected was 8:30am, we chose to be picked up from our hotel where it was communicated that we would be picked up at 8:00am the day before our tour. This ended up being perfect as we got to the locations ahead of other tourists often beating lines and larger crowds. Wagner was very prompt in picking us up at our hotel even arriving 10 minutes earlier. Additionally, not sure if they attend to larger groups, but it ended up being a tour with just my dad and I which was an added bonus and worth the price. Overall the total time we spent on the tour from pickup was 4 hours and we traveled around in an air conditioned car and van (to go up to Christ the Redeemer). Thank you so much Wagner for making our first time in Rio a wonderful time! We can’t wait to come back again!

We had an awesome tour guide. Marcos made us feel comfortable and safe. I highly recommend him as your guide if you’re from the states.

Amazing private tour with Leandro. He was very knowledgeable. Picked us up right on time. We highly recommend this tour.

This tour fit perfectly in the only time we had available. Although the afternoon tour was not perfect for photos at some angles due to the sun, there were very few people there at that time which meant no wait times. Our guide did a great job. I especially liked that it was easy to communicate with the tour and our guide using whatsApp.

We highly recommend this tour!!! A beautiful experience, we visited enchanting places accompanied by the words of our guide Monica from which her love for the city and her detailed knowledge of it shone through. Monica managed to keep our interest alive, telling us anecdotes, glimpses of history and giving us advice on the holiday. Thank you, Paola and Enza from Siena

Very interesting and informative tour hosted by Monica. Took weather conditions into account to change the order of the day, so we managed to be on Christ The Redeemer during the only sunny part of the day. Narrates simultaneously in multiple languages and excellent at English. Highly recommended

Given a choice of 3 hotels close by and their distance for pick up when my hotel was not one of the pick up sites. Monica the guide was an excellent photographer and very knowledgeable. Enough time was spent at each site. There was an opportunity to buy souvenirs too.
