Luiz Fernando

Luiz made everything work on the day. An essential knowledgeable guy. No problems recommending Luiz to anyone wanting to experience all the excitement of a soccer match without the complications.

Did a Vasco game with Luiz and had an excellent time. Luiz lives and breaths Vasco but he also has a great, wider football knowledge. If you’re going to do a Vasco game, pick Luiz, you won’t be disappointed. Phil

Luiz is a fantastic guide and this is a great experience. He made it simple, easy and engaging. I would absolutely recommend him and the experience. Cheers!

Ryan was a great host who was very helpful and communicative leading up to the game, during the game and after. He adeptly managed to organize multiple people, and make them feel included. It was a great futebol experience! I highly recommend Ryan and the game experience regardless of your football experience and background.

Luiz was Great, a very cool and funny guy. The Match was fantastic with Electric atmosphere.

Very good experience. Definitely the best footballing experience I had in Brazil. The guide was very communicative, friendly and knowledgeable. Would recommend to anybody.

Had an awesome night at the game in Maracana, vs Flamengo. Communication before the game with Luiz was smooth and easy to organize the registration and meeting point, and he is a super nice guy with lots of knowledge of the club Vasco da Gama. He also introduced me to his friends which was cool. And he took care that I safely got an uber after the game. Highly recommend this experience, it was really great!

We came to Rio hoping to catch a soccer match—and ended up having one of our favorite nights of the trip. My husband and I wanted to attend a soccer game while visiting Rio, but securing tickets directly from the club was confusing. That led us to Homefans, and we’re so glad it did. Luiz sent clear instructions for the facial recognition process, where to meet, and timing. When we arrived, he spotted me in the crowd and called out my name, which immediately made us feel taken care of. We grabbed jerseys at the Vasco store before the match and got to enjoy Vasco’s first game of the season - ending in a win!! Luiz was incredibly patient with our many questions about the team, its players, and Rio. It truly felt like attending the game with a friend (albeit one far too young and cool to actually be our friend!). After the match, he walked us to the approved Uber pickup area, waited until we were safely on our way, and even followed up to make sure we got home safely. If you want a seamless, safe, and genuinely fun soccer experience, Luiz is your guy. He’s a lifelong Vasco fan, which made it even better—and a perfect start to our Rio trip.

Fantastic night at Sao Januário. Vasco is without doubt an authentic Brazilian football experience. From walking through the streets to the ground, to the old school stadium and ornate main stand, the electric atmosphere and a 5-1 win made for a great night. Luiz was a great host, has perfect English, was very communicative in the lead up to the game making the meeting and ticket logistics easy and stress free. Highly recommended.

I had an amazing experience with Luiz as my host for the Vasco da Gama match. From the start, he was organized, friendly, and very knowledgeable about the area and the club’s history. He chose an easy meeting point, made sure everyone arrived on time, and guided us smoothly through everything. I had no idea we needed facial recognition to enter the stadium, but Luiz was proactive and handled the entire process for us so we didn’t have any issues. He also made sure we got great seats with an incredible view of the match. Throughout the experience, he was interactive, engaging, and made the whole group feel comfortable and safe. After the game, he ensured everyone got home safely as well. Luiz is a great guy and an even better host. Highly recommend him for anyone looking to enjoy a real local football experience in Rio!
