Real experiences from real travelers
The skip-the-line ticket was essential. Walking down the tunnel was emotional for a football fan like me. The guide was brilliant.
Even though I don't watch much soccer, the history of the World Cup here is fascinating. The museum is small but packed with cool items.
Hice el tour guiado y valió la pena. Ver los vestuarios y sentarse en el banquillo fue increíble. Muy recomendado.
The stadium is huge. We went on a non-match day. It was busy but organized. Good photo opportunities near the pitch.
We booked the match day transfer and ticket. The atmosphere was electric! Felt very safe with the guide.
