Very good! Worth the cost benefit!
Lucho was a very attentive guide; it was clear that he is passionate about soccer and he always offered to take our photos. It is a short tour, but we enjoyed it with him.
Estimado cliente. Muchas gracias por la revisión. Nos alegra que te haya gustado el tour. Por favor, cuente con nosotros en futuros viajes. Gracias. Att, Giovanna Maldonado
Great experience redeeming the ticket. The tour of the stadium is at your own pace but you can stay as much as you can in each section. Highly recommend! Once there you can add the penalty kicks which was amazing.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and spoke good English. the private tour was very accommodating to our schedule. Pick up and drop off from hotel very smooth.
This was described as a guided tour with an expert guide, when in reality you could walk in and join any group, and the “guide” didn’t give you any information. All he did was introduce himself and press play on a 3 minute long video. Then you were just left to walk through the tour path on your own and read the plaques on your own. There was no guide, and no one to explain any of the history or facts of the stadium. You are way better off just arriving to the stadium and buying your own ticket there. Very disappointed that this was advertised as a behind the scenes guided tour, and there was no guide.
Excellent Guide, Louis, told us everything there was to know about the history of this world famous stadium. In perfect English too.
Dear Customer. Thanks a lot for the review. We are glad that you liked the tour. Please count on us on future trips. Thanks. Att, Giovanna Maldonado.
Louis and Patricia were fantastic. We had a great tours with the GreyLine company. The communication and customer service is better when you book directly with them.
The tour was fine, nothing particularly exciting about it. Was cool to get to go field level and some of the displays inside were nice.
It's worth the price, you get to go through the museum and the grass on the side and see all the historic events that happened here from concerts to championships to world cups. Pele's 1009th goal ball
I’m a futbol lover and this was in my bucket list since I was a kid. It’s an awesome experience to be inside in one of the most mystical places in futbol history. The pictures, the locker rooms, the press conference room and being on the pitch is an amazing experience. It’s too bad I couldn’t do the Flamengo game that you can also buy here in Viator, it’s actually cheaper than buying it at the box office
