Lima Club Culture Experience
One club. One city. Choose football or volleyball.
This is culture. This is passion. This is Lima.
In Lima, sport isn’t just entertainment - it’s identity, community, and emotion. This experience takes you beyond the tourist trail into the world of Alianza Lima: a club where the colors, chants, and neighborhood pride live across sports - from football to women’s volleyball.
Guided by José - a lifelong Alianza supporter with real local access - you’ll experience Lima like a local: hidden food spots, pre-game streets, and one unforgettable match experience built around belonging, not sightseeing.
🎵 The Song-List Ritual
Before game-time, you’ll learn the chants - lyrics, translations, and cultural meaning. By the first whistle, you’re not just watching… you’re part of the blanquiazul energy.
Prefer volleyball over football? Tell us your dates - we’ll propose the best match option available (football, volleyball, or a duo combo on request).

"In South America, the drums are the heart of the whole team. They keep the vibe going and motivate everyone. I take people to the heart of the stadium, to the fanatic supporters of Alianza. This is not a tour - this is emotion."

This is not a standard tour
This is not a standard sports tour - it’s a club culture experience. We combine sport, gastronomy, music, and neighborhood stories around Alianza Lima. Sometimes that’s football at Estadio Alejandro Villanueva, sometimes it’s volleyball - always it’s emotion, connection, and real Lima.
🎵 The Song-List Ritual
- → Printed lyrics in Spanish
- → English translations & cultural context
- → Slow practice sessions
- → Group rehearsal before the match
By game-time, you're not a tourist - you're part of the Alianza family.
🍽️ Food as culture
"Tasting" isn't just lunch - it's a cultural moment. José explains the dishes, ingredients, and local stories behind every meal.
You'll discover hidden spots locals love, not tourist restaurants. The goal: emotion and memory, not just food.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I choose volleyball instead of football?
Yes. When you request availability, tell us your dates and whether you prefer football or volleyball. We’ll confirm what’s on and propose the best match experience for your trip.
Can I do football + volleyball in one trip?
Sometimes - if schedules align. We can plan a duo combo on request, but we usually recommend focusing on one match experience to keep it immersive rather than rushed.
Can you really get tickets for any match?
Thanks to José's connections with passionate supporters and years in the stands, he can secure tickets for most matches - even high-demand rivalry games and international tournaments. For the biggest dates, booking 3-4 days in advance is ideal, but last-minute requests are often possible for regular games.
Is it safe to attend matches with the most passionate fans?
Yes. José's deep connections mean you're under his protection and welcomed as his guests. The song-list ritual helps you blend in naturally, and José knows exactly how to navigate the culture safely.
What if I don't speak Spanish?
No problem. José speaks English fluently and will handle translation, ordering, and navigation. The song-list ritual includes English translations of chants, so you'll understand what you're singing and why it matters.
Is this suitable for solo travelers?
Absolutely. Many travelers join solo and appreciate the small-group, intimate setting. The shared ritual creates natural bonds quickly - you'll feel part of something bigger from the first moment.
Why is there a price range for each package?
Prices vary based on group size (larger groups reduce per-person cost), match type (rivalries and high-demand games have higher ticket costs), and booking timing (early bookings allow us to secure better options). We’ll give you an exact quote once we know your dates and preferences.
