Elected as the best city to be visited in 2018 by Lonely Planet, The New York Times and other important magazines and newspapers around the world, Lisbon offers everything a football fan seeks for the weekend: two of the most exciting derbies in Europe, great weather, amazing restaurants and bars, and an unforgettable nightlife!
The city is home of two giants in the Portuguese and European football: Benfica and Sporting Lisbon. The first one holds a record of more than 200,00 shareholders and it is by far the most successful club in Portugal. Sporting Lisbon, the green and whites, are famous for its Ultras and having the best youth players in the country. They revealed names like Cristiano Ronaldo and Figo.
In this tour, you will dive deep into the Portuguese football history and rivalry. We will begin at Estádio José Alvalade Stadium, home of Sporting Lisbon. Renovated for the EURO 2004, the ground is modern, beautiful and of course, full of green and white colours. You will be accompanied by an English Speaking Homefans Local Host, who will be able to tell you amazing stories about the Derby and guide our group in the Stadium and their Museum.
Then, we will move on by subway towards their rivals, SL Benfica. Their Stadium, Estádio da Luz, is the biggest one in the country and home of the most powerful football club in Lisbon. They have 2x Champions League and 37 National Championship titles. The ground is impressive and it was built to provide Benfica with a new and modern home, serving as the playing venue for the Euro 2004 final. And of course, there is the eagle, a symbol of the club, who flies from the stands and lands in the club’s emblem in the middle of the pitch during every game. You will have the best behind the scenes visit and learn the history at their 3-floor Museum.
Finally, after the tour, we will take the subway to the city center to have the most amazing, local and authentic Portuguese all-inclusive lunch and beers on us! Take this time to relax and end the tour in the best way!

Even though we are a friendly bunch, we are not directly responsible for the activity.
We are a marketplace, which means we facilitate that travellers like yourself, take part in a sports experience offered by a fully-vetted local host who has enrolled on the platform.
The responsibility to carry out the activity relies exclusively on the local host. However, we as a marketplace act in the interests of everyone, supervising everything and facilitating communication and support when needed for a flawless experience.
Whilst the fixture calendar has been released, final confirmed dates are usually announced 2-3 weeks before the kick-off date, due to TV schedule. It is possible then, that Sunday matches will move to Saturday and vice-versa. The local hosts will keep you posted in case there is a change.
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.
An activity on the Homefans marketplace involves a fully-vetted host, who offers a specific experience around a sporting event (match day experience with a ticket for the game) or some other cultural experiences (walking tours, stadium & museum tours with a local, among others).
They last between 2 hours up to a whole day. Please check the inclusions in each activity on the “What’s Included‘ section.
Once the booking is done, you will receive an order confirmation and the Homefans tech platform will notify the host about it. 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.
The activities on the Homefans marketplace are designed and executed by fully-vetted locals that have been approved by Homefans.
All bookings made on Homefans are backed by our Buyer Guarantee so you have peace on mind when booking.
With more than 10,000+ customers , Homefans is one of the biggest specialised sports marketplaces in the world.
The maximum number of people the host will allow is stated above.
However, this number may not always be met and it may even be possible that your party is on the tour on your own.
Higher numbers make for a more sociable experience, lower numbers make for more personalised attention from your host. Look at it as a win/win!
Unfortunately, given that the activities are 100% offered by local hosts onboarded on the Homefans marketplace, this is not possible.
All activities are paid 100% upfront to ensure a correct preparation by the local host.

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.
