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.
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.
I booked a break to Barcelona for my boyfriends birthday and had such a fantastic weekend away, I can not fault it, from booking the trip to being there! Im so glad I booked this through football break as I did not have to worry about booking my flights, tickets or hotel, it was stress free. The staff at football break were very quick to respond to me when I had questions which was fab - they were also very helpful when the date of the match got changed, amending our flights and hotel! I can't thank them enough. I will definitely be booking through them again and would recommend everybody else to!
Wear warm clothes if you go in November - my boyfriend and I thought it would be warm to didn't take many warm clothes and we were freezing during the match, when the sun had gone down.
Barcelona is a great city to visit took my 8 year old grandson who really enjoyed it.Take the open top bus tour on a short break you can see an awful lot.
If you are a football fan you have to do it the & Football Breaks are the best to do it with.
