River Plate Tour

River Plate - El Más Grande.

The most successful club in Argentine football history, an institution whose white and red sash has conquered South America and the world. Known as "El Más Grande", River Plate represents elegance, excellence, and an unbreakable spirit that defines Buenos Aires football culture.

Join us as we explore the home of River Plate - the legendary Estadio Monumental - visiting its world-class museum, enjoying a meal at the new stadium restaurant, and discovering the neighbourhood's football art and identity.
Footballing Mecca, fútbol paradise, Buenos Aires is heaven for any fan of the beautiful game.

With 18 stadiums in the city alone and over 60 in the Greater BA area, there's no doubt why it's number one on the list for groundhoppers. The city and its football culture are intertwined with the story of River Plate.

How it works - You'll spend approximately 3½ hours in and around the Estadio Monumental, the club's iconic home since 1938. A bilingual guide will accompany you throughout the entire experience.

A minimum of 3 guests is required for the tour to go ahead.

Where we’ll meet - We'll meet at the Estadio Monumental, located in the Núñez neighbourhood on the shores of the Río de la Plata. This is the home of River Plate and one of the most iconic stadiums in South America.

Your bilingual guides will greet you and accompany you throughout the day, keeping you safe and providing context to all the sites we'll visit, along with any necessary translation!

Itinerary/Agenda:

Estadio Monumental (3½ hours total)

13:00h  Museo River & Stadium Tour

We begin at the Museo River, founded in 2009 and located in the heart of the Estadio Monumental. The museum spans over 3,500 square metres and houses the most precious treasures in River Plate's 120+ year history.

Through the 'Túnel del Tiempo', you'll walk chronologically through the club's greatest moments: legendary players, championship teams, historic goals, and the most valuable trophies - all connected to River's national and international glory. The museum features unprecedented technology for Argentina, including a 360° cinema that projects a film capturing the emotion and feeling of being a River Plate fan.

As part of the stadium tour, you'll enjoy pitchside views of South America’s largest stadium, alongside expert insight into its rich history and the transformations it has undergone in recent years.

14:30h Banda Restaurant - Lunch at the Stadium

After the museum and stadium tour, we head to Banda, River Plate's restaurant located in the Centenario Media sector of the stadium. The restaurant officially opened in September 2025 and offers spectacular views of the pitch and surrounding facilities.

You’ll enjoy a proper sit-down meal in a unique football setting, with views of the stadium and a menu that can include typical Argentine dishes such as empanadas and steaks, as well as desserts like flan and, of course drinks. 

This is the chance to eat inside the temple of River Plate, combining football culture for a truly unique Argentine dining experience.

15:30h Neighborhood Murals & Walking Tour

After lunch, we'll leave the stadium and conclude by taking a stroll around the surrounding Núñez neighbourhood to admire murals and street art dedicated to River Plate and its idols. You'll get photos and appreciate the best pieces that celebrate the club's identity in the local community.

Will I be safe? - As always in a large city with great social inequality, it's important to have your wits about you and take the necessary precautions. Our experienced guides will ensure your safety and look after you. Wear casual clothing, we'll be going off the beaten track!
