Real experiences from real travelers
The cog train ride was magical through the forest. We went early at 8 AM and beat the crowds. The view is worth every penny.
Excellent organization. The guide spoke great Spanish and gave us time to take photos. Just wish the clouds had cleared sooner.
Booked the skip-the-line ticket. Very smooth process. The statue is much bigger in person! Highly recommend.
We did the early access tour. Watching the sun come up over Sugarloaf from the feet of the Christ was the highlight of our Brazil trip.
The tour itself was fantastic and the van was comfortable. The summit was packed, but that's expected. Good value for money.
Combined this with Sugarloaf. Long day but we saw everything. The BBQ lunch included was delicious.
Unlucky with weather, couldn't see the city below. But the statue itself is majestic. Check the weather before booking!
Living the dream! The train is charming and the views are unmatched. A safe and wonderful experience for the whole family.

Yes, advance booking is highly recommended, especially for the train, as time slots sell out days in advance during peak season.

Yes, there is a trail from Parque Lage, but it is steep and safety concerns exist. We strongly recommend using official transport or going in a large guided group.
