Glasgow by Eric Cantona

“A football club (Celtic) will be formed for the maintenance of dinner tables for the children and the unemployed” Brother Walfrid, Celtic Founder.

“Rangers FC. Do not enter unless you’re ready to put yourself second – and that should be the one and only time second is good enough for you.” Walter Smith.

A football fanatics dream trip

I went with Looking FC to Buenos Aires for the Superclassico, and it was everything and more.

Our trip captain Dani & everyone at Looking (Shout out to Adam) were super helpful and planned everything brilliantly. By having a local as the trip captain, it felt like we got a real look at the authentic football culture as opposed to a more corporate feel which was great.

This was the best futbol experience of my life!

Looking FC had a lot of surprises for us every day. Everyone in their staff was great.

I highly recommend this trip to anyone that breathes futobol.

Use Looking FC

Looking FC were outstanding. It was so well organised and run by brilliant people.
Our Buenos Aires guide, Dani, was amazing and knew the best places to go, and what to expect from the game.
Adam was always on had for any questions or issues, and sorted them out quickly.
If you’re looking for a great football trip, I’d definitely recommend Looking FC.
