Why come with Pibe?
The official club Monumental tour prioritises Spanish with little English explanation, and groups can reach 50+ guests. With Pibe de Barrio you'll have a reduced group (up to 10) and an experienced bilingual guide to make sure you get the most out of the visit to the largest stadium in Latin America.
We also have a special River-themed route for a walking tour through Belgrano / Núñez so you can see this football-mad barrio through a football lens to properly understand it.

River Plate stadium & Belgrano (3.15pm-6.15pm) Duration around 3 hours

Your guide will add important context in the club museum and continuing out onto the famous stands and other areas of the stadium.
*Note the Monumental stadium tours run with large numbers of guests and next to no explanation in English - your guide will explain the context in English you ensuring you are given all the necessary context in the former Antonio Vespucio Liberti stadium.
17:00h River Plate Murals & Belgrano Walking Tour
Continuing in the lush Belgrano / Núñez neighbourhood where River's influence is still as strong as ever - it's clear this is a wealthier part of Buenos Aires, but some streets still contain murals, paintings, and statues dedicated to the "gallinas" (chickens) of River Plate.
Your guide will accompany you through the gated streets and explain how the setting matches perfectly with River's image and grandeur.
We'll finish up at another famous club, Excursionistas to remind ourselves that the local community & members are the owners of the clubs in Argentina, even if they reach the massive scale of River Plate. This creates a unique identity and connection between the teams and the neighbourhoods.
