I would like to say Thank you first of all to our amazing guide Pedro! Amazing support and guidance throughout the whole Tour! He was able to create a special bond among the whole participants so that we could all enjoy the experience as a Team! Very friendly and professional at the same time. Safe environment and safe guidance. The only regret is that we left Brazil after few days so we couldn't book another tour for another match always with Pedro. Definitely recommended to every football fans that may be in Rio. Obrigado Pedro. You're the best.

This was my first time watching Flameng, and my first time at the Maracanã, so I had no clue on what to expect. But it was one of the best experiences at a football match I had (6-1 to Flamengo!). Pedro took us through the stadium and told us exactly what to do. We had an amazing section where we could see the whole pitch and were right next to the ultras too. If you want a truly authentic Flamengo experience, or are going to the Maracanã for your first time, I highly recommend you book with Pedro. He is a super host! Thank you again Pedro!

Pedro and his friends hosted us for a football game at Maracanã, and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment we arrived, they made us feel like part of their group. Pedro's and his friends' passion for football was contagious, their knowledge of the game added an extra layer of excitement to the match. The atmosphere at Maracanã was electric, and being able to share that with Pedro and his friends made it even more special. Overall, it was a fantastic night, and I would highly recommend anyone visiting Rio to connect with Pedro for an authentic football experience!

This was my second time out with Pedro at Maracanã, and yet another amazing experience. First, well-organized and safely executed by Pedro despite all the chaos on this lovely, sunny day with 60.000 people at the stadium. Second, the game itself was amazing - the crowds, the cold beers, and the result! See you again soon, Pedro!

I usually don't book tickets with guides especially to football/futbol/futebol matches, but this experience was incredible! I had such a great time with our whole group! Pedro our guide was very knowledgeable about the team and I had a great time conversing with him on our way to the game. Pedro took us to a bar where we had a couple of beers with some of the other Flamengo fans which was a really great time where I got to meet different people going to the game also. Afterwards, we headed to the stadium and made our way to our seats, which were very good! After a couple of visits to the bar, we were all definitely having a great time! Pedro and his friends really made everyone feel part of the group! I highly recommend booking this experience and I guarantee you will not be let down! Thank you Pedro and friends!

By doing this matchday experience, I could tick off another item of my bucket list - watching a game in the legendary Maracanã. Definitely a must do if your visiting Brazil and your a sports fan. Even people who are not football fans won‘t regret it, as it‘s an overall unforgetable experience and uncomparable atmosphere in the stadium. The Flamengo fans are nuts before, during and after the game! Our guide Pedro did a perfect job. You can tell that the well-being of his group is important to him and that he‘s a true Flamengo fan! Thank you Pedro for the impeccable organization.

I had an unbelievable experience with Pedro (2nd leg, semi-final, Brazil Cup 2023). I was given all of the necessary information along with a friendly introduction on WhatsApp well in advance of the day. Pedro explained everything, along with do’s and don’ts and was happy to answer any questions. He made sure people were aware of pickpockets on the way to the stadium, and made sure everyone was looked after. Pedro was really knowledgable and organised everything perfectly, from meeting everyone in our group to getting the beers in before and during the game. As a football fan, I had a great time and couldn’t recommend Pedro more. I’ll be rooting for Flamengo in the final!

We went to Flamengo v Sao Paolo in the Maracanna with our guide Pedro! It was a great way to meet like minded people and have a few beers before the game! Pedro was great fun and took all the hassle out of coming and going to the stadium! Would highly recommend booking with Pedro if you want to catch a game in Brazil!

I now call myself a Flamenguista. This was made possible by Pedro and his well-organized trip to Maracanã to watch Flamengo vs. Curitiba Sunday 16th. Also the communication leading up to the match was on point and comforting. We met with a few other Flamenguista's prior to the game for few beers and some food, and we got the perfect pre-game experience. Pedro shared exciting information about Flamengo, Maracanã and football in Brazil. During the game, which Flamengo won 3-0, the fans were chanting and singing throughout, and encouraging the team to go for the win. Loved every second of this experience!

Watched fhe FlaFlu in April 2023. It was perfect organised - meeting point, the way to the stadium, getting to the seats and going back to the city. Pedro informed us much about football in Rio. It was very interesting. The only thing which went wrong - Flamengo lost the match...

We had a super plan in Rio with Pedro who took us to the famous Maracaná stadium to attend the classic Carioca derbi Fla-Flu!! Flamengo vs. Fluminense in the first leg of the Carioca Championship 2023. We enjoyed the group and the atmosphere going to the stadium, inside and coming out. Everything was organized by Pedro including taxi drive to the stadium, a visit to a local bar for a beer, typical street food ( if you wanted) and the match tickets. Atmosphere was wonderful and Flamengo won! ❤️ thanks Pedro! I would recommend this plan to anyone visiting Rio! We love it!

Pedro was amazing! He picked me up at the subway, took me to a local bar for a drink, then we walked to the stadium with all the fans. He met some people he knew which was great, because then in the stadium there were a group of us - which made us feel safe but also like the locals! The game & atmosphere was outstanding. The manager made some questionable subs but the Flamengo fans were so good. I can not recommend doing this with Pedro highly enough, it was a great experience and I did not stop smiling.

Thank you, Pedro! It was a once in a lifetime experience for us at the Flamingo Championship game for Copa Do Brazil! There was never a dull moment! For such a big game with heightened emotions we were a little apprehensive about safety, but you took great care of us from the initial booking all the way to the end. We had never and will never again experience anything like a championship game in Brazil at Maracana stadium!

Pedro was just in time and picked me up from my hotel. He showed me some nice bars before the match and we had some beer together. We also met some friends of him and joined the fantastic atmosphere in the stadium. I felt like a local. For me a very good experience. Thank you, Pedro ☺️
