Christ the Redeemer | Wendy Wu Tours

Surely Rio's most recognisable landmark, Christ the Redeemer watches over the city from the 700-metre-high summit of Corcovado mountain. The statue itself, complete in 1931, is 30 metres tall and the largest Art Deco statue in the world. It is visible from almost everywhere in the city and offers spectacular views back over Rio.

Travel up to the base of the statue by the narrow-gauge cog train, which chugs you at a gentle pace through the rainforest of the Parque da Tijuca, considered one of the world’s largest urban forests, an area full of monkeys, waterfalls and lush vegetation.

Review for Ultimate South America

It was good to have a Tour Manager - Corina - throughout the whole holiday, from arrival to departure. She was outstanding, showing an extensive knowledge and she was dedicated to making us all well-looked after and showed excellent attention to our specific dietary requirements. The holiday was a whole series of iconic visits/views: Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca, Uyuni Salt Flats, Atacama Desert, Flamingos in the wild and in close proximity, geysers, sad Santiago, extensive Argentinian wine-tasting with a meal to match the excellence of them, Argentinian Tango (!!!), Gauchos on the Pampas, the stunning Iguazu Falls, the iconic Copacabana Beach, Christ the Redeemer and Sugar Loaf Mountain. We were SO privileged!!
