Friendly, Fun & Fiery Football!! I am an incredibly well traveled person who generally does everything on her own....but after several bad attempts at going to a football in Argentina I decided to put myself in the hands of a tour agency to help me follow my team (URUGUAY!) during the Copa America 2011.
I chose Tangol because they speak english but are all passionate locals (which is the way I like to travel), and they delivered all I could've ever dreamed of and more - including seats so close to the field I could almost reach out to touch the players!! They took me to the Uruguay-Mexico game in La Plata - with an excellent guide who got everyone pumped-up for the game on the way there, swiftly brought us to some unbelievable seating location and drove us back safely to the door of our hotel at the end of the night. I was so pleased with the service I went to the next game Uruguay-Argentina in Santa Fe and took care of everything. At this point they were my good luck charm, and just had to go to the final with them where we played against Paraguay in the River Plate Stadium! It was absolute chaos all around the stadium and was SO impressed by how they knew exactly how to avoid getting lost in the madness (they clearly have been doing this for so long they had special contacts helping us get through the back door!). Surely enough...WE WON THE COPA AMERICA!!! Despite being Argentines, TANGOL CELEBRATED WITH ME LIKE IT WAS THEIR OWN TEAM AND MADE ME HAVE THE TIME OF MY LIFE!! Can't wait for the next Copa America and look forward to using them again :)
River Plate vs Boca Juniors - SuperClasico!!! Tangol, were very helpful in getting me a ticket to this match in particular Mateo. I had trouble with the payment and he took the trouble to actually call me (in England) from Argentina to resolve the problem.
The match itself was a truly amazing experience and a must for any football fan visiting Argentina. If you're not lucky enough to witness the 'SuperClassico' a visit to see either River Plate or Boca Juniors is well worth it. The game I saw was at River Plate, but I will return next year for the same fixture, but this time at La Bombonera, Boca!
I would highly recommend Tangol.
GREAT EXPERIENCE We had a great experience in Boca Juniors home game last Sunday. A friend told us to go with Tangol Travel Agency and it was awesome!
The guide was very good, and the location in the stadium was not the best but it was OK: one of the best things we did in Argentina.
Magnificent futbol tour I looked around at a few local tours and Tangol is the best for sure. Mateo was super friendly and helped me with everything from questions, booking and he even borrowed me his Racing Club jersey for the game, the legend! I am a massive football fan and I have been wanting to see an Argentinan Premier Division game for a long time. I was in a toss up of who to see when I was in Buenos Aires, River Plate, Boca, Racing ect. So I decided to see Racing and Boca. The first game was Racing Club. The best game I've ever been to by far! Mateo was a great guide and kept the group together at all times and got us great seats. The atmosphere from the fans was electric and they play some amazing football. I would recommend to go see Racing Club to anyone! Boca was my second game. I had an amazing experience at the La Bombenera also but I was seated up in the sky for that game. The Boca fans are also amazing too. It's a lot more expensive to see Boca but I would recommend to go see Racing club for a better experience!
Our Tickets for Futbol We booked our seats for a game of Futbol with Tangol and it was a great success!
Excellent evening watching a football match! Went with 3 friends to watch River vs Independient. The tour guide was fun and informative, and we had a great time at the game. The area we went to didn't seem safe to do it alone, so we were extremely glad that we booked this tour!
Amazing futbol experience tour We went to a Racing Club vs Boca Juniors game with guide Santiago from Tangol. It was an amazing experience, a must do when you are in South America as the atmosphere and passion generated from the fans is incredible.
They picked us all up from our hotels and also dropped us off after the game, quick and easy. Santiago was a great guy with interesting stories. He also gave sensible advice on what not to wear and do etc and was always looking out for us, helping us to buy a jersey and also drinks etc. Definitely a safer and easier way going to the game than trying to go yourself, worth the money.
The booking with Mateo at the office was also easy and efficient.
Would definitely recommend.
Great football experience! Loved this experience! futbol is such a big part of argentinian culture, and I absolutely wanted to go, but wouldn't have felt comfortable navigating the crowds/police check points/general insanity without the help of a guide, at least for the first time.
ARGENTINA FOOTBALL.. a must !!! Wether you are a fierce footbal fan or just like to casually watch a game now and then ...well, you shouldn't miss out on a football tour with Tangol!
It's a great experience, since Argentina is a very passionate country when it comes to football.
Actually feeling the atmosphere, seeing the joy in every "porteño" - a m a z i n g !! Definately a must if you visit Buenos Aires and Argentina!!!
