Futbol lover bucket list - I’m a futbol lover and this was in my bucket list since I was a kid. It’s an awesome experience to be inside in one of the most mystical places in futbol history. The pictures, the locker rooms, the press conference room and being on the pitch is an amazing experience. It’s too bad I couldn’t do the Flamengo game that you can also buy here in Viator, it’s actually cheaper than buying it at the box office

GOLAZO - What a morning we had at the world famous Maracana football stadium. Lots to see and do including a full history football shirts and foot pronts of all the famous and iconic players to have worn the gold and green. From the iconic 3 time winning team, after which they were able to keep the trophy and a new one made, players such as Garincha and Dida,who played just before, Rivelino, Jairzhino, Gerson, Carlos Alberto and of course the great Pele. Also great footballers such Socrates and Zico. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It was also nice to re learn the fact that in 1950 the Maracana played host to the world cup final and although Brazil lost against Uruguay in front of a mind boggling 200000 crowd. The highlight of the tour was the penalty shoot out which my wife and I signed up for. Although I was not feeling 100⁵% I was not going to miss out on the opportunity of scoring a penalty at the Maracana. The penalty shoot out went well with my wife being able to say she scored a penalty at the Maracana 1 and myself who scored 3 and that was with knee leg and hip issues.Fantastic experience finished off with pitch side interviews and press conference. Would most definitely recommend for all ages and a must for any true football game. VAMOS Fernando Nieto scoring a Catterick of penalties at the Maracana visiting from London.

Maracana stadium and scoring penalties on the side pitch - This is an excellent tour and i loved the football history of Brazil especially Pelé. My only issue is the photographs. Luckily you get real printed off photos as the digital photos that were Whatsapp,d to you are blurred. I also never received the emailed version either so im confused why the digital images were poor but the prints good. Luckily. All in all a great morning out.

Marvellous Maracana - Was definitely on our to do list whilst in Rio, we had a fantastic guide called Louis who knew a lot about the stadium and who was very clearly passionate about his football.

There was nothing... - There was nothing particularly bad about this tour. I mostly rated it a 4 because I'm not really a futbol (soccer fan), but I felt I would have been doing myself a disservice of not stopping by to take a look at such a famous Rio attraction. The stadium was historic, and we got to view and take pictures of some cool things. Our tour guide did a great job of giving me details about what his team had experienced in the past, since I don't really follow the sport. Great family experience, especially for those who love/appreciate sporting events aka soccer.

Double billing - I bought tickets for the tour for my family and car. On the way out they charged me for the car again. Careful.

to see but this is not a guided tour - the stadium is a must-see during a stay in Rio. However, it is advertised as a guided tour which is completely false. a guide speaks for 2 minutes at the beginning and it is autonomous.
