Watching a Botafogo game at the Nilton Santos Stadium was one of the most memorable experiences of my life and that of my friends. Our flight arrived on the same day as the game and we only had a few hours between disembarking and kick-off. We had to request an Uber from the hotel straight to the stadium and our guide Matheus provided us with an absurdly perfect disembarkation point to get there avoiding the chaotic traffic around the stadium. In fact, Matheus is extremely professional and very dedicated. The stadium is in a neighborhood far from the center or Copacabana, for instance, but it is very safe and breaks a certain exaggeration regarding insecurity in Rio. Despite the draw, the game and atmosphere were incredible! The Botafogo fans are very good! When it was time to return, Matheus took us to a safe and appropriate place to request an Uber back to our hotel. I couldn't recommend it more!

Watching a Botafogo game at the Nilton Santos Stadium was one of the best football experiences I've ever had! The Homefans guide was fantastic – very professional, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure everyone in the group was having a good time. The passion of Botafogo fans is contagious and seeing the team on the field was simply incredible. I recommend this experience to any football fan who wants to experience a game day in an authentic and exciting way. I will definitely book with Homefans again soon!

I had a great time with our host Matheus.
We met up at a local bar, close to Botafogas arena, with an other family from USA, two guys from Manchester and one other guy.
Matheus is a dedicated supporter that is fun t o go to a game with.
He was helpful to the family, they wanted souvenirs etc.
He gave good information about the teams sitiution and whats happen around the arena during a game day.

Sorty that the result wasn't better for Botafoga.

Many thanks!

It was a great experience. We had a really amazing time during the Botafogo game, and Matheus made sure everything was organised and light for the group. If I ever go back to Rio, I'll definitely go again.

I went to watch Botafogo playing Madueira at home on the first game of the season the 17th of january. Our guide was a fantastic person with a true passion for the sport. He was very conciderate and gave us all in the grpup a great time and the best Matchday Experience you could ever get. His extensive knowledge of every day life in Rio also opened my horizons and I will never forget the 17th of january 2024. I would recommened anyone tou join this tour! (We even won the game. 1-0)

The guide Matheus was perfect, thanks again to him, the whole evening was incredible, what an atmosphere!! The experience is definitely worth it. My partner, who is not necessarily a football fan, was very pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere here and the warm atmosphere there 😊
I highly recommend!

Matheus was incredible. This experience was more than a futbol match. It was a dive into the culture of Botofogo fans. Matheus not only cares about the tour but cares about your individual experience. He was attentive and had great energy. We’ve done some great things in Rio but this was our favorite.

Botafogo Matchday experience was one of the best days of my life. I met a man that would soon become a really good friend of mine. We came to Rio as Englishmen with a reserved opinion of how to enjoy our time here. Believe me, we had the best time. From meeting Matheus, he made us feel welcome. Letting us know where to go and where to be. Before, during and after the game he was consistently looking out for us and made a point of making sure we were okay. From this point, he and Botafogo had stole our hearts. He introduced us to his friends, of which we went on other stadium tours with. Each one we had a different outlook on. If I were to look back on my trip to Rio, it wouldn’t have been the same without Matheus and I think my two amigos “Ed and Mark” would agree…. What a guy! Matheus we will be life long friends! All the best, Joe x
