What we will do in this experience
Hello, my name is Raul and I have been a passionate football fan since my childhood. This passion has led me to pursue a career as a sports journalist. In this experience, I would love to take you to my favorite place in Rio, to be eye witness of the amazing atmosphere that only Flamengo supporters can delivery.
Maracanã is the most famous football stadium in the world, it´s importance for Brazil goes beyond than just being a sports venue. This is where brazilians from all diferent regions of the country meets driven by their unexplainable passion for their clubs.
Flamengo is the most popular club of Brazil, it was founded in 1895 at the neighborhood of same name, in the south side of Rio de Janeiro. It is estimated that 40 million people are fans of Flamengo in Brazil. If the club was a country, it would have a bigger population than 84% of the countries in the world. That is why it´s proud supporters like to call themselves “Nação”, a nation!
Through our official partnership with the club, we obtained official tickets without intermediaries, in addition we have included admission to the Flamengo Museum, currently one of the most visited attractions in Rio de Janeiro.
Let´s get together with the local supporters, sing the chants, fly the flags, support the players and listen to stories about the past and future heroes of these grounds.

Host was great, fast response time and always available for questions. The transport by van was safe and fast, after dropoff after the game the hosts waited until we all were safe in our taxi’s to our hotels. Before and during the game the hosts provided us with a lot of information which made the total experience extra special. Highly recommended!

Went to the Maracana Stadium to watch Flamengo. One of the best nights at a football match, made all the better by Bruno. His knowledge on the ground and the history of the club was brilliant. From the meet up to the end of the night we felt safe. I would recommend everyone to use homefans if your out of your comfort zone going to another country. Once again thanks Bruno you made it a great night.

I booked a derby game at the Maracana through Raul during a 3 day stay in Rio. Raul was excellent throughout in communicating prior to the day and also during the day he showed me exactly where to meet on google maps. Transport to and from the event was excellent and I found Raul was excellent on the day. He is an outgoing, likeable person and very knowledgeable on football and Rio in general. It was a pleasure to experience such an intense match day with him.
