My experience was NON existent!! I turned up to the stadium to be pointed around here there and everywhere by security and finally being told NO tour available as the stadium was closed due to a concert! I have called and spoken to sameer at Headout who is in the process of arranging a refund. Absolutely gutted and very cross that this breakdown in communication has happened. One very very unhappy mother and son a complete disaster end to our break away.

The event was cancelled and you did not warn us in advance. We travelled specifically from England and it was a complete disaster. To compound matters you have refunded only half of my money for an event that never took place which is appalling. I demand my full money back and added compensation for the inconvenience. Our sole purpose of the trip from England was to visit the stadium and we have been badly let down

My guide was bored out of his mind. He spoke as if reading a science text book and showed zero enthusiasm. Even the small kids who were excited at the beginning of the tour lost their spark by the end of the tour. I've been to multiple stadium tours around Europe and this is by far the worst one. I would not recommend. Try Sporting or Porto.

Enjoyed the design and stonework of the monastery but found the tour was really just seeing the Cloister from each level with a minimal number of rooms open to view and understand the use of the Monastery. The Chapel also unfortunately had restoration scaffolding up at the altar and blocked most of that end of it. These thing plus the long lines lessened the experience.

The SL Benfica Stadium features one of the biggest video screens in all of Europe. With 120 screens, each one at 47 inches, you get to take a five-minute tour of the lift and watch a curated selection of key moments from SL Benfica’s history. The lift also transports you to all three floors of the stadium.

The polycarbonate roof

The SL Benfica Stadium is also known as the “Stadium of Light” or the “Estádio da Luz.” If you’re wondering how it got this nickname, the answer lies in its roof. Made of polycarbonate, it’s designed to allow light to flood the pitch from various angles. What’s more, it can also be retracted to keep the game going during unfavorable conditions.

The Hall of Fame

The stadium’s Hall of Fame celebrates the legacies of some of the most iconic players in Benfica history like Eusebio, Nani, and Rui Costa among several others. You get to learn about how each of these icons contributed to the club’s rich 120-year history.

The stands that seat 64,000+ roaring fans

The moment you step out among the stands, you’ll instantly feel chills down your spine as you imagine being surrounded by more than 64,000 fans cheering on for their favorite team. The panoramic views of the stands are only seconded by access to restricted areas like the locker rooms and the press conference room.

The Benfica Official Store

The Benfica Official Store is the club’s official merchandise shop from which you can pick up all kinds of wearables and souvenirs. From beanies to caps, jerseys to jackets, you’ll be spoilt for choice, especially if you’re a die-hard Benfica fan.

Known to be among the best Portuguese footballers, the museum showcases his history, a detailed timeline of his role in the club’s growth, and the countless victories he has to his name.

The Benfica trophy collection

When it comes to Benfica’s trophy collection, to say that the museum will leave you awestruck is an understatement. From the Portuguese Cup, two European Cups, the NOS Three-Time Champion League Trophy from 2015/16, and some of the 38 Primeira Liga titles, you’ll get to witness the club’s success through its trophy collection.
