We thought it would be cheaper to book the hotel, natch and flights separately but this was a fantastic value offer. Less stress for us as everything was sorted. We had great seats for the match and the place was buzzing especially when Barcelona won 4-0. Our hotel was very modern and the staff were excellent, they even printed our boarding passes for our return flight. The thing I was most impressed with was the flight times, we had almost 3 full days there even though we only stayed 2 nights, perfect.
Don't turn up at the stadium too early, gates only open 1 1/2 hrs before kick off.
Took a gamble on company as first time booked a trip liked this as you never know what you get when booking on the internet. Well during the whole process I should have not have worried as the communication from start to finish was excellent and any queries were dealt with swiftly. Wish all companies could be like this.
We stayed near termini station and then had only a 5 min walk from Metro which helped when visiting sites and getting to stadium.
What an amazing football trip! The whole thing was organised really well (even the tickets etc printed out one step at a time, so all was good for "a bear of very little brain"), like me. It all flowed from one thing to the next without a problem. The eats were high up, but gave an excellent view of Messi's hat-trick! The city itself was excellent and well worth spending a couple of days looking at the superb architecture (and tapas bars).
Well worth getting a Tourist Bus Ticket for the non match day. We caught the blue route bus which also take you out to the stadium, where we did the Stadium Tour (brilliant). Allow a couple of hours for the tour. We then continued the blue route tour and swapped to the red route to get back to the hotel.
Excellent customer service, quick responses to email queries.
Use the train to get to Milan from the airport, easy to use and only 12 euros each way.
Bought the trip to watch Real Madrid for my sons Xmas. We had the best time of our life's. Starting with the flight on the 29th December left on time, €30 euro taxi to the hotel. Hotel was spotless and only a 10/15 walk to the stadium. Our match tickets were upgraded free as a new year gift from footballbreaks.co.uk Area VIP. Got treated like kings in the VIP box, the stadium was full and atmosphere was unbelievable. The next day we done the stadium tour and the wee man was so excited. On the last day we had time to kill so we jumped the metro to the Atheletico Madrid stadium for a walk about.
If I was going back to Madrid I would be traveling everywhere on the metro, very easy to work and very responsible prices.
