Additional Information

A quick tour in Rio de Janeiro visiting the two most famous landmarks: the Christ the Redeemer Statue and Sugarloaf Mountain.

Get picked up from your hotel and drive up to the Christ the Redeemer Statue - one of the New Seven Wonders of the World - on top of Corcovado Mountain. The drive is short and beautiful, traveling through the Tijuca Forest before opening up to incredible views of the entire city.

Then go to Sugarloaf Mountain, located in the Urca neighborhood. Ride a series of 2 cable cars en route to the summit, first arriving at Urca Hill, and then continuing to the top of Sugarloaf, reaching a height of 1,295 feet (395m). Conclude the tour with an exquisitely beautiful panorama of Rio de Janeiro.

The very best of Rio for those with little time.

Sugar Loaf and Corcovado Tour - Bravo to Meilin for her kindness and dedication. This excursion was very well planned. She took the time to explain and tell us about Rio. She also made the effort to speak to us in French even though it was difficult for her. I highly recommend it. The 2 F MAZETIER

It was worth the trip, I just didn't have lunch. - The guide Leandro and the driver Tiago were super friendly and took us on a wonderful tour, the company just doesn't have a good schedule for picking people up.

Great for solo travelers - Really enjoyed this tour. Got to see a bunch of the great tourist spots Rio offers from Christ the Redeemer to Sugarloaf mountain, and all the beaches. The tour guide was great. Had a lovely day.

Monica was a great tour guide - This tour was incredible! My tour guide Monica Bertazzolo was phenomenal! She had to speak like 5 different language fluently to keep everyone engaged and informed. She made sure we got thru the sites safely and efficiently. She was kind enough to take photos for me and everyone else to make sure we got the good photos at the Christ the Redeemer monument. Excellent tour, very well done. Would highly recommend anyone who visits Rio to do this tour where you see both Sugarloaf and Christ the Redeemer on the same morning, particularly with Monica.

Almost the same as if you just did it on your own - Another review mentioned this but prepare for a lack of organization, and running late. No meetup times or meetup places were set in the group, it was a free-for-all. Very little information given about anything on the tour. Our guide still had to go and secure tickets at each location and we did not get the express line at Sugarloaf as advertised. It was a little unclear whether or not we got any express treatment at Christ the Reedemer. The transportation was comfortable and our guide was friendly and spoke pretty good English. I would say unless you are the type of person that struggles to figure things out on your own like ordering an uber between destinations or buying tickets for yourself at the location that you should do it yourself, or find a tour that is a little more structured.

Hire Your Own Guide if You Can - Crowded bus combined with a guide who wasn’t very knowledgeable, though he was friendly. If you can afford it, hire a guide and do them alone.

Complete incompetence - We hired C2Rio to just make two simple transfers for an executive from my company. From Santos Dumont airport to the hotel and then from the hotel to Galeão. We paid an exorbitant amount and they managed to leave her at the wrong hotel and then leave her at the wrong airport, in other words, 100% error. Two mistakes in two chances. The person had to take a taxi to go to the correct airport at the risk of missing their flight. Simply pitiful. I will never hire them again.
