This was our third trip with football break to Barcelona and, like the first two trips, the whole package was excellent. The upgraded match tickets offered by footballbreak were well worth the extra money as we got a great view of the game in both halves. The game itself was great to watch, two top teams made for a fantastic atmosphere and to see the worlds greatest player score the winner in a 3-2 Barcelona win, we couldn't have asked for any more.
In terms of the city, there is endless things to do and places to visit in Barcelona, I'd personally recommend buying a two day ticket on a jump on-jump off tour bus which enables you to visit almost all of the city's great attractions at your own speed. As previously stated, this was our third trip with footballbreak and I would recommend them to anyone, great value for money, simple to book and always on hand to answer any questions.
For future fans visiting Barcelona I'd recommend extending your trip an extra day or two as its a place with so much to do. The stadium tour at the Nou Camp is a must, as is a look around the Sagrada Familia and of course a long walk down the Ramblas.
The total package was excellent. Hotel was 5-10 min walk from the stadium and close to convenience stores and bars. The atmosphere was fantastic as we was only 3 rows from the front and close to the Madrid fans who constantly chant the Madrid songs. I'd prefer to have a total package rather than separate after this experience. The representatives of football break were brilliant, we was greeted inside the stadium and shown to a VIP area which needless to say was amazing. Madrid is a very nice city, easy to navigate due to a system similar to New York City, we took a tour of the city and really needed a day or two to explore, but more reason to go back in the future!
Do the stadium tour and visit the club shop! The tour is truly incredible and you could spend most of your day in there!
our trip was originally booked by our kids, flying out from Gatwick and returning to Luton , but a few minutes on the phone and everything got sorted out at football break,we flew from Prestwick international to Girona and arranged a separate airport transfer to Barcelona, the seats at Camp Nou were excellent and we had 5 goals in the match with Barca winning.i would say the hotel was overrated (4* ... 3*'s at a push) but that is down to the hotel its self and not with football break. our location was spot on 10 minutes in the metro and we arrived at the stadium.
make good use of the metro system , its easier than you think, be sensible with your belongings as it has a reputation for pick pockets.
This package was great, I would recommend to anyone looking to organise a football break. There was alot more options than I expected when booking this break in terms of the hotels, flights and tickets. We stayed in the Attica 21 hotel, we found it a little disappointing and would not rate it 4 stars. However, the overall break was good and we thoroughly enjoyed the football match.
Our football tickets were delivered to the hotel as promised on the morning of the match, which was great and when we arrived the seats were fantastic. It seemed as though we were seated mostly with other English people who presumably had booked through either this or another package, which was nice although it meant that the overall atmosphere was lacking a little in terms of the songs etc that you would usually get at a football match, our end was a little quiet. But having said this, it does not take anything away from the match, which was great! Would certainly recommend Footballbreak but if we were to book again I would not stay in the Attica 21.
We thought the whole experience you provided was superb, the flight, hotel and match couldn't have gone any smoother, we felt we had adamant information on all three to not feel lost or unsure of what or where we were going. Both me and my dad had a great trip and we'll both be using your website again, i have already been spreading the word.
Don't get to the ground too early as there's not much to do around there, especially if you're hoping to watch Premiership games in a pub.
