Highlights: 3 match experiences, 4 stadium tours
Two capitals. Two historic football cities of South America. Separated by the Río de la Plata and a two-and-a-half-hour ferry ride.
On one hand, there’s Buenos Aires – the city of tango, steak, wine, and, of course, football. Home to Boca Juniors, River Plate and many other clubs, it boasts some of the most passionate fan bases in the world.
On the other, you have Montevideo – a calmer city, yet steeped in football history. It’s home to the legendary Estadio Centenario, where the first World Cup was held, and two giants of the game: Nacional and Peñarol. Together, they’ve won an incredible 8 Copa Libertadores titles and an astonishing 101 national league championships!
