All smooth from the very beginning till the end of the match :) Perfect online guidance through the face-recognition system registration, nice bar kick off meeting prior the match. Perfect atmosphere in Maracana (Flamengo gained the championship as well, so value deal). Matheus is a great host!

Thrilling experience with Marcelo in Rio for the cup semi-final against Vasco. Marcelo introduced me to all the pre-game hangout spots, explained in depth the history of the club, and ensured a seamless experience by getting all of the logistics in place. If you’re a football fan, I’d recommend it as a must - the atmosphere was jaw opening!

In a word “wow”! Victor looked after us from meeting at the tube station until making sure we were ok in the area after the game, and we got an Uber back to our hotel. As regards the game which Flu won 6-0, what an incredible atmosphere, an absolute bucket list item at the Maracana for me. Do yourself a favour, book this, you won’t regret it. Victor was the perfect host. 200% recommendation.
