Nice tour, but we were never wanted of the rules of the competitve “score a goal” attraction. Shots are suponer to be taken from the official penalty mark, even if you are a kid. My 7 year olds were heartbroken with the difficulty of the task and, naturally, weren’t able to score against the adult goalkeeper. Be aware!!!
An amazing tour full of history and activities. Good access to areas that are actually used. Good photos available and displays are easy to follow
Very very good. Once you are at Rio you must plan a visit the maracana with this tour. You need about 3 to 4 hours.
This is a must go place if you are into football. The place is magical and is very rich with history and football memories
Maracana stadium.. Built in 1950 and home to some of the memorable football matches for Brazil.. Including the 2014 FIFA World Cup and 2016 Rio Olympics.. The tour is an absolute must-do for football fans.
I enjoyed the tour to Maracaña. If I was you I would go to a game instead. The tour was alright for me and my toddler but I thought it was too pricey and too short. If I had to do it again, I would opt out, maybe attend a game instead. I thought I would be able to see the whole stadium but you don't. You only see an 1/8 and you can't really walk around. I was expecting to be able to walk around/ even in the stadium but you can't.
About the stadium
Its official name is Estádio Jornalista Mário Filho, but everyone knows it as the Maracanã, after the river that runs through the neighborhood. It has been the backdrop for the greatest moments in Brazilian football. This is where Pelé scored his 1,000th goal in 1969, where Zico displayed the full range of his talent, and where the supporters of Flamengo, Fluminense, Botafogo and Vasco da Gama light up the stands at every derby, especially the "Fla-Flu".
The Maracanã is more than an architectural giant; it is a place full of emotion. It has hosted two World Cup finals (1950 and 2014), a Copa América final and the 2016 Olympic Games, along with historic concerts by the Rolling Stones, Madonna and Paul McCartney, and masses led by Pope John Paul II.
On the guided tours, you walk through the players' tunnel, the dressing rooms, the press room and, above all, the edge of the pitch where some of football's greatest chapters were written. In the museum, trophies, shirts and other relics tell the story of a country where football is a religion.
