The whole package was great. When we arrived at the hotel we were handed the tickets for the match. We didn't pay any extra for the seats and still had a great view. We stayed at the Barcelona Princess. It was a bit further out of the city but really easy to get to on the metro or the city sightseeing bus which stopped at the door. Hotel was great - minibar was free and refilled every day. Payed for an extra night and glad we did as there is so much to do in Barcelona. Overall my boyfriend loved his 21st birthday trip and is now planning another.
Get a T-10 metro card. It gets you 10 journeys for 10 euro (one journey is 2.25). It is also transferable between people. Just put it in the machine and pass it to the next person
The package was very easy to purchase and the instructions on the site were easy to follow. All questions were answered by phone or website in a timely manner. The city of Madrid is a clean and very friendly city, we found it very safe and access to the stadium was great. You cannot get better than a trip to see the worlds best football club, and you will see why when you go. Great football,food,helpful staff, and what was great was to see so many families with children having a great time in a safe and friendly environment.
I would recommend staying on for a few extra nights as we did as there is so much to see and do.
The package was excellent and everything went smoothly, the match tickets were waiting on us at check in at the hotel. The Hotel was good value for money and in a great location.The view from the seats we had was excellent even though I had just paid for basic ones. We were high up, but this just added to the thrill of being there. The atmosphere was electric, very exciting. Madrid is a beautiful city and there is so much to do and see other than the Football and I would thoroughly recommend it. The package through Football Break was excellent value for money and everything just fell into place. The communication from the Company was excellent and everything was done for you. can't wait to book another trip!
I would definitely recommend the Stadium Tour, well worth a visit and the Open Top Bus Tour is good and stops at the Bernabeu Stadium.
We had a great time at the stadium. Our seats were pretty good and we could see well. I think the whole package was probably over priced given what I later learned about hotel cost and ticket prices but I was happy to have assured seats well in advance. Dortmund was lovely and easy to get around, the food and atmosphere was perfect.
Tip: Go early, the trains get packed beyond full. Don't be afraid to walk a little ways instead of waiting for the Stadium train.
I was nervous as I had not heard of footballbreak.com but the service was simple and efficient and the package worked brilliantly. The team updated us as required and the tickets turned up before 10am on the day of the match as promised (my biggest concern). We didn't plan our return from the stadium but metro proved simple if crowded. Barcelona has a reputation as the city of pick pockets but we had no issues and enjoyed the atmosphere in the city as the match approached.
No Madrid fans so no trouble but beware pick pockets who are rife in the city
