Amazing locale. Took taxi and then ascended with the rail cars. Reached atop the mountain. what a view. We went early morning to beat the crowd. But was foggy and the statue was often covered by the cloud. Waited half an hour even with the light drizzle and we awere able to get a clear glimpse and were able to take some good pictures. Enjoyed the trip

A wonder of the world with awesome views of the city and its beautiful natural landscapes. Quite popular with tourists even in low season so it is challenging to take a photo. Many instagram selfies too. A must see in Rio.

Getting there. Canadians in Barra. Take Uber , easy and efficient, however very important the address. We had christ redeemer in Uber and took us to the cog train start. What we have learned! Put Painerias Corcovado. Very important. Research it. This is 5 min drive from the top, Uber can take you there. From there 50 meter walk up hill to ticket center. Cost 55R per person. This gets you into van and drive another 5 min or less. Keep ticket to get back on van down 5 min. Then get Uber or taxi from spot you got dropped off at. That's it. It's thst simple. However get Uber to take you to right spot at the beginning, from there everything else is straight forward. Top, crowded, great views, a must sew and then tick thst bucket list!

Relieved that our visit here didn’t include waiting hours in queues. Visited mid November and the entire experience was really positive. Defo book online to avoid queuing for tickets. Train up, lifts and escalators made our visit efficient and pleasant. Amazing views from the top along with being amongst one of the worlds most at iconic places.

The only time that our schedule allowed for a visit was late afternoon on a very cloudy/foggy day. As the clouds blew through, there were times when we could barely see the statue even though we were standing right under it. However, as the clouds intermittently cleared, we were treated to a truly awe-inspiring sight. My biggest regret was the inability to get the panoramic views of the city, the beaches, and Sugarloaf that other visitors' photos had depicted. Regardless, it was definitely worth the trip.

Recently got chance to witness this amazing statue part of 7 Wonders of the World. View was mesmerizing. Tips : Hire a tour guide around 300 Reais from your hotel due to language barrier. Avoid weekends if possible due to long queue of people, check pics for crowds. Plan for first half (before noon).

Perched atop Rio de Janeiro’s Corcovado mountain, Christ the Redeemer is an iconic monument that commands attention. Standing 30 meters tall, this statue of Jesus Christ with outstretched arms offers stunning views of the city and serves as a beacon of spiritual and cultural significance. A visit to this awe inspiring landmark is a testament to both human ingenuity and the enduring power of faith.

Were there lots of tourists? Yes! Was it a bit expensive? Yes! Was it still worth it? Yes! Definitely a bucket list thing for many people, I feel lucky to have had the chance to go. The views over Rio were great. We got the tram up and the whole process was so much less stressful than I had imagined. I had got the impression that if you don't book the day before it would be a mistake. We winged it and just arrived reasonably early and bought tickets from the machine. We then had about an hour to have a lovely brunch at a classy cafe just a few mins away. When we got back, our timed ticket meant that we were ushered straight through the crowds near the front of the queue. The journey up was spectacular and even though there was a wait getting on again on the way down, I thought the queuing system was generally excellent- and we had the bonus of seeing the biggest butterfly ever while we were waiting! All a memory to keep forever.

Amazing views. Very crowded. At the train waiting area they could definitely use some AC because it s boiling hot. Resonably priced although when you buy your ticket there are different prices for tourists or brazilians. Just choose that you re from Brazil lol

Best views in Rio. Unlike anything I’ve ever seen. A true wonder. Beautifully laid out and landscaped en route up to the statue. It gets very busy and very warm so take water with you. Flat shoes are a must. There are a lot of stairs to get to the top. Once you’re there the views are simply spectacular and the statue itself is utterly breathtaking.
