Itinerary
- 1The Emirates Stadium is the Arsenal FC’s home in Holloway, London. It was known as Ashburton Grove before its sponsorship and Arsenal Stadium for UEFA competitions. Emirates Stadium is the 4th largest football stadium after Wembley, Old Trafford, and Tottenham Hotspur with the capacity of 60,704. Arsenal proposed a move to a new stadium in 1997 right after the Islington Council denied planning permission to extend its stadium in Highbury. In 2000, the club bought an industrial and waste disposal site at Ashburton Grove after exploring numerous options including the purchase from Wembley Stadium. One year later, the Board was approved for the building of a stadium on the site, described by Arsène Wenger as "the largest decisions in the history of Arsenal," since Herbert Chapman was elected by its Board. Later, Emirates was announced as the stadium's main sponsor. In 2006, the entire stadium project was completed at a value of 390 million Pound. The old stadium was reconstructed as the apartment complex Highbury Square. To order to preserve Arsenal's tradition and culture, the stadium has undergone an "Arsenalization" phase since 2009. Like Wembley, International festivals and concerts have been held in the stadium as well. In this tour, visitors can see a collection of shirts, medals and trophies from former Arsenal captain Joe Mercer and the shield commemorating the club’s hat-trick of League Championships from 1933-1935. You will be able to explore behind the scenes at Arsenal Football Club and let a host of Arsenal stars share their match-day experiences with you on a self-guided audio tour of Emirates Stadium, take your place in the changing room, walk down the tunnel and imagine the roar of 60,000 fans. Two newly opened areas for the tour route are Unai Emery's Office – explore where the manager prepares prior to the game, and the Physio Room – see where the players receive their pre-match massages and are strapped before each game. You have four different options here in this stadium.
About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- sarahaX1095CX0 contributionsAstonishing view of the stadiumNice experience there. I went with my partner and my best friend. Wendy, tour advisor took us through the entire stadium including the players changing room, conference room and many more.Written 28 September 2024
- Simonallen540 contributionsWest Ham TourI’m a Villa fan and I throughly enjoyed the tour. Simon was our tour guide and he was excellent all round. Would definitely recommend the tour if your ever in London. Up the VillaWritten 23 September 2024
- stephenaV7531NV0 contributionsBirthday treatThe tour i was told was over an hour it was less .the guild was good but there is not much to see i felt robbed. I've done loads of tours and this one was very poor having pictures of players on the wall don't make the tour. Last year I did wolves ground which they had loads of memories from there museum and players old kits and trophy s .but nothing like it at west ham. I was told so many times it's not our ground but you would have fought they had more stuff to seeWritten 16 September 2024
- russellsT8702GM0 contributionsToo Professionalism and Quality ExperienceI was astonished at how much was available to us to see and learn and experience! The guide was knowledgeable and an exceptional communicator. We were all rapt. It stands out as one of the memorable moments of a hammer-for-life! I’m nearly 60 and this day was part of my bucket list-coming from the days of the Boleyn, I really needed this and I recommend it to all fans. My family are not all West Ham fans and they really enjoyed it as well!! One of my cousins joked, “don’t bring them back as hammers”.Written 3 August 2024
- robertsH8493NI0 contributionsPrepare for chaos, enjoy the tourExtremely disorganized at the start. Bus was late. Guide did not know where to have people wait. Once the correct bus arrived and was identified as such, it was a mad rush for people to get on. Some had to sit inside a windowed area, while others got the open air part. All of that said, once the guide began his description of the sites and their history, it was very enjoyable. He was very knowledgeable and had plenty to say. All in all, we enjoyed the experience, and London after dark is a gorgeous thing.Written 30 July 2024
- Sasha F0 contributionsDecent tourDecent day out as you get to spend time at West Ham with football legends, go into the teams changing rooms and get a photo included at the end. Seeing the stadium completely empty is very strange. Sitting in the managers chair was good and there are loads of opportunities for questions throughout. I really enjoyed myself though the process for additional photos is extortionate.Written 14 July 2024
- Arthur B0 contributionsChampVery positive response from your side to work on this issue so please let me know to proceed further on this week and get ready for service and you will also need to check with your decisionWritten 12 July 2024
- B6650TGgp0 contributionsAvoid if you can!Beware! I am a West Ham supporter of Greek Origin, so when Olympiacos came to town last November, I jumped at the opportunity to purchase tickets and go and see the game. I purchased two tickets for me and my wife, paying a total of £ 152. Shortly afterwards, I got an email from West Ham to say that my tickets had been 'blocked' until I could prove that I am a West Ham fan. Not sure how you can prove that you are a fan of a particular club, they asked if I had a West Ham shirt or scarf. The answer was not to both, I am 70 years old and would not walk around with a West Ham shirt or scarf. As it turned out, the club told me that I would not be able to get admission to the game, although I had two valid tickets. I asked for a refund and was told that this was out of the question. So, I have paid £ 152 for nothing, I think it is fair to say that I have been cheated by West Ham United. Never again. Supporters please be aware how they treat you!Written 28 April 2024
- BarMc0 contributionsChelsea Stadium AmazingExcellent tour of Museum and Stadium complete behind the scenes look about. all aspects explained is great engaging details to keep the interest . Plenty of time for photos didn't feel like you were being rushed through the process.Written 24 April 2024
- valeriu760 contributionsThe best private hire in LondonWe booked a transfer to and from Gatwick Airport to W13 through Tourope UK. We were very pleased with the service received. The cars arrived on time, the drivers were polite and helpful, the cars were clean and comfortable. They even had water bottles and sweets. We booked an MPV for a family of 5 and were upgraded to a minibus. I used and was often disappointed with London private hires, so it was a Godsend moment to discover Tourope UK. Highly recommend this company. Many thanks to Cory for the support and attention.Written 20 April 2024
- CarliAndMase0 contributionsA football fans dream!My son is a crazy Chelsea fan and he absolutely loved every minute of this tour, as did I. We did the VIP tour with Dave as our guide and he was amazing. Very knowledgeable and informative as well as being a lovely fellow. Highly recommend this tour and if you can request Dave, you will not be disappointed!Written 20 January 2024

Tickets purchased via the Get your Guide app. You don't know how to block a date or time but we went for 10:30 and it was a good time (lots of people followed us).
The tour with audio guides in native language was very good, the staff very attentive and helpful. You have the opportunity to visit every nook and cranny. For someone who is not a huge football fan, this is a very interesting visit. Children are also attentive because the comments are very varied and relevant

My husband is a huge Arsenal fan so we knew we had to do a stadium tour and it did not disappoint! The audio tour was very informative and the staff were all very friendly through out. Being able to stand in the same places as the players and take lots of pictures was such a great experience. It was probably my husbands favorite part of our trip!

We took a Californian cousin of ours on this self-guided tour, as he's a real Arsenal fan (despite living in San Francisco!). We were all very impressed with the tour and the areas of the ground we were allowed to visit. We were allowed to sit in one of the stands and also get to the edge of the wonderful pitch (which was still covered up). Our cousin thought it was wonderful and said he would treasure the tour certificate which he picked up at the end of the tour. As well as a scarf and tee-shirt. Easy to get to from Drayton Park overground railway station. We were, however, slightly irritated by the lairy behaviour of a group of kids who were there at the same time. Two of the boys just left their rucksacks on the floor, and I brought this to the attention of one of the stewards (they were both essentially unattended bags - which could have been anything!) who spoke to the kids in the group and the two bag-leavers picked them up immediately and removed them.
