Overview

Boca Juniors is all about passion, love, and even religion. It is the club to be beaten by the others. It is the people’s club. Its stadium is truly impressive. Riquelme. Maradona. Palermo. Tevez. La Doce. They have it all. Many experiences are described as “once-in-a-lifetime” but Boca at home truly deserves it.

Walking through Boca’s neighborhood is a Buenos Aires must-do. Between colorful houses, great steak restaurants, and tango places, you see yellow & blue jerseys and scarfs everywhere, having the feeling you are somewhere special.

Going further down the street, more and more shops selling models, caps, towels, and photos from Boca. The way leads to the most beautiful chocolate box you can have: La Bombonera. Join me on a football journey through the world of Boca Juniors!

The matchday experience will start with a gathering at a meeting point in Buenos Aires. I will communicate the meeting point to you in advance. From there your experience will begin as you will enjoy some beers and local food, before traveling together to La Bombonera, home of Boca Juniors for a once in a lifetime experience. Tickets will be on the long side unless specified short side seating section due to availability

Is the match date confirmed?

Whilst the fixture calendar has been released, final confirmed dates are usually announced 2weeks before the kick-off date, due to TV schedule and the AFA (Argentina Football Association) disposition. It is possible then, that Sunday matches will move to Saturday, Monday and vice-versa.  The local hosts will keep you posted in case there is a change.

When will I receive confirmation of the tour?

When you choose and pay for your an activity on the Homefans marketplace, you will receive a booking confirmation directly after the booking via email. In this confirmation, you will get all the details of your booking.

You can always chat with the host on the marketplace by clicking on the ‘ASK A QUESTION‘ button – you will send and receive messages you can check on your own dashboard with email notifications.

A few days prior to the game, the host will get in touch with you via Whatsapp to arrange the appropriate logistics.

Can I bring bags to the stadium?

We recommend not to bring bags and valuables to the stadia in Argentina. Just the bare minimum to be more comfortable during your experience.

According to our Terms & Conditions, after the 24 hour window, the host cancellation policy applies, and it depends on each host.  Given that it involves tickets, it’s usually non-refundable.

Great atmosphere and experience

I am not a Soccer (Football) fan, but whilst visiting Argentina i wanted to experience the passion of these crazy supporters more so than the game itself. Well i wasn't disappointed. Ignacio (Nacho) was a great host, and his communication prior to meeting the group via Watts App was excellent. My only issue was that i asked if taking a Go Pro was OK (got told yes), as they are strict on what is allowed in. (items that can be thrown from the crowd etc..) But when i got to the security checkpoint i was told that i couldn't bring it in (probably due to the small plastic handle?). As i didn't trust leaving it with security, i was able to contact Nacho, and his colleague (sorry name forgotten, but another great bloke) was able to meet me, and look after it during the game. I was still able to get good footage and photos from my mobile phone (which is allowed). So due to this i was separated from the small group i was with, and ended up being away from all the others. But still, this did not take away the enjoyment of the game. Thank you Nacho... (i now need to take you to a game of Aussie Rules! ;)

Outstanding experience!!!

Ignacio is the best, and the locations were superb!!! When we booked the experience, we had doubts about how this would be and how we would be treated, but we were delighted with how perfect and excellent everything went. Ignacio cared for us perfectly, led us to our seats, and waited for us when the match ended. We will book another game experience with Ignacio on our next visit to Buenos Aires!!!! The sad part is Boca tied 1-1, but we were able to shout a goal!

Unforgettable!!!

A wonderful trip to La Bombonera with Ignacio. Excellent communication from Nacio prior to arriving in BA and on lead up to the match with local advice given. Meeting point, entry to stadium and journey back home to centre of BA all organised very well. It was lovely meeting up pre match to talk BA and football. Our favourite city and the people make it even better! Thanks Nacio- we can't wait to return!

Slightly belated review - but had a perfect trip with Ignacio for Boca’s first game of the season. Meeting and entry were very smooth, bit of time before the game for a beer, food and chat etc And tickets were spot on, high up pretty much in line with halfway line. Would be livelier behind the goal and obviously a different experience, but for a sense of the ground and the football on the pitch you can’t fault it. Would highly recommend Ignacio’s tour

La Bombonera

Ignacio was our guide to the Boca Juniors V Defensa Y Justicia game, everything was well planned and very well done. Some nice food and a few beers pre game and when we arrived in La Bombonera, the atmosphere was everything we’d hoped for and more. Would recommend Ignacio and a visit to La Bombonera any day of the week.

Seeing Boca at the Bombonera was definitely one of the highlights of my trip BA. Ignacio was a great host. There was plenty of communication and everything went smoothly from start to finish. I had a great seat, right in the centre at the front of the second tier. Great match with plenty of drinks before (and after!!!)Highly recommend, amazing experience!!! Cheers Ignacio!!!!!

Boca - Platense

Great and authentic experience! Ignacio and Gonzalo were great hosts, we met in a square not too far from the stadium, and we walked all the way to La Bombonera where we had beers and sandwiches in a pub, right next to the stadium. The process to go through security checks was easy and smooth and our seats were very well located, the view on the pitch was incredible and we could appreciate the Bombonera in all its beauty! I highly recommend this Homefans experience and I will definitely do that again on my next trip to Buenos Aires!

Ignacio is a great guy, communication prior to the match was good, willing to help with other questions as well, the whole day was perfect, meeting point, beer/snack before the match, going in the stadium went smoothly, drop of at meeting point as well, and seeing Boca become champions was a dream came true!

BOCA FOREVER!!!!

First thing first - Ignacio was not able to host us. However, he was replaced by the wonderful Juan. Having a couple of beers before the game allowed us to soak up a small slice of the unbelievable atmosphere surrounding a Boca game. Then through the heavy security and we were in, "La Bombonera!!!" Pyros, flags, banners and constant singing for the whole of the game left me hoarse and happy. The Boca fans around us were all wonderful. It was a magical experience that I will never forget. Highly recommended. If you've got time take in the museum/stadium tour beforehand. It gives you a taste of what's to come. Makes me want to host games at Bolton Wanderers :-)

WHAT A GAME - WHAT AN EXPERIENCE

My buddy and i travelled down from Canada to Buenos Aires and found home fans selling tickets to the final BOCA copa group stage match. From the security walking to/in the stadium, having fantastic seats, and an amazing host (Fran the legend) made this match unforgettable! Going to a BOCA match you should expect an absolute frenzy of energy and passion. The entire time we felt safe and ready to lose our voices from chanting with the fans! What a great match, and what a great experience! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

BOCA-GODOY

Perfect experience ! Everything went so smooth . Considering you will never be able to get into the stadium on yourself , this was the most relaxed build up to a match I ever experienced . Everything was arranged , from the transport , through the security and guided to your places in the stadium. And then the game started in this remarkable stadium with fans constantly singing and supporting. You can't play a poor game in this ambiance. A pity it was over so soon !

Great guides, great experience!

There is nothing like a Boca match, and the experience with Ignacio and Valentín was wonderful. The pick-up was prompt and the pre-game meal and beers were at a delightful restaurant near the stadium. Ignacio and Valentín were top-notch guides, taking time to answer any questions we had and engaging in soccer-fandom conversations with the group. The guides helped make the entry and exit from the stadium as smooth as possible.

Amazing experience

The experience was well organisered, flawless and smooth. The hosts were friendly and knowledgeable. Also there were Boca fans themselves which added to the experience. It was great to have dinner at a local restaurant and to meet equal minded people and share other groundhopping trips.

Simply magical

Not much more you can say about La Bombonera other than magical. The street murals around the stadium are amazing and Homefans did a tremendous job of organizing our group and taking them into different areas of the stadium of their choosing. Boca must be the toughest ticket to get on the football planet and our host Alvaro did an incredible job with the communication and making sure everyone was comfortable and informed. The drinks and food were sublime - best Empanadas I’ve ever tasted.

Boca matchday

I booked my ticket for Boca Juniors through Homefans and it was an amazing experience. The local host Valentin is a passionate Boca fan and very hospitable. All was taken care off, and it was a true privilege to see a Boca Juniors game at La Bombonera. The pre-match experience with another group of Homefans customers is a nice way to get to know new people and just have a good time in general. I really enjoyed it!

Great Experience @ La Bombonera

I went with Valentin to the Boca Juniors match on 11/28/2021 and had a great time (despite the eventual rainout!). Valentin could not have been more welcoming and friendly, and he made the group feel safe at all times. Learning about the La Boca neighborhood and experiencing it's energy on game day was a really memorable experience and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting BA!!

Grâce à Valentin notre accompagnateur, j ai passé un moment inoubliable à la Bombonera lors de ce match. J étais avec ma femme, ma fille de 18 ans et mon fils de 10 ans et nous avons passé un moment agréable et serein. Nous nous sommes régalé avec Valentin qui a su nous faire sentir le cœur qui bat de la Bombonera ainsi que de tous les supporters de Boca. Si vous le pouvez, n hésitez pas, vous vous souviendrez à vie de cette expérience. Merci Valentin !!!

Boca Juniors - San Lorenzo

I went via Homefans to Boca Juniors v San Lorenzo and it was a great experience. We enjoyed a pre-match experience in a restaurant with beers and pizza before going to La Bombonera. Transport was taken care off and we were had plenty of time before the match. It was great to be at La Bombonera and see a match of Boca Juniors, thanks a lot for the good service!
