River Plate Stadium & Museum Tour

Few football teams in South America are as decorated as Club Atlético River Plate, and their cauldron-like El Monumental stadium has been the venue for many of the club's most famous nights.

A behind-the-scenes tour of the Buenos Aires club's fascinating old home is a must for ground-hopping football hipsters or even the most casual of sports fans.

Legends of the world game have donned the famous red stripe of River Plate – Di Stéfano, Crespo, Higuaín, Saviola – the list goes on and on. The trophy cabinet tells its own story. Los Millonarios can boast over 40 major titles, including four Copa Libertadores triumphs.

On this football culture excursion, you'll explore the Nuñez neighborhood that surrounds the ground, wander the club museum; and learn about the great players, passionate rivalries, glorious victories, and crushing defeats of a footballing institution.

Escorted by an avid guide throughout the tour, you'll visit the presidential seats, the smaller volleyball and basketball stadiums, the institute of education and, of course, get up close to the hallowed turf.
