    We had such a wonderful time with Matheus! He picked us up a couple hours early, so that we could enjoy the pre-game VIP experience at the Botafogo football match. We then enjoyed the game in great seats, as well as the post-game VIP experience. If you really want to enjoy a football match with a friendly, knowledgeable local fan, Matheus is your Man!
