How it works

Once you book this experience, we will send you a confirmation email with a link to join the session. Learners can log in from their individual classes or congregate in one single class/hall and access the tour via the link provided. Please note that this tour is conducted by a Christ the Redeemer expert based in Rio De Janerio using audio visual and virtual presentations, unlike most of our tours that involve a live relay from the site. This is because of the low internet bandwidth on top of the mountain, and also owing to the detailed nature of the presentation within a short period of time. 

What you need

You will need a stable internet connection and a mobile device (ideally a desktop or laptop) to stream the session.

Cancellation Policy

You can cancel and obtain a full refund for this session until 5 days before the date of the first session.
