Football legend Ronaldinho is ready to give football fans the ultimate Paris experience for this month's Champions League final.
The Brazilian icon, formerly of Paris Saint-Germain, is preparing to welcome fans of Liverpool and Real Madrid to the French capital for what promises to be a spectacular clash.
Liverpool secured their progress to the final by overcoming dogged Spanish side Villarreal in the last four, while Real Madrid mounted an incredible late comeback to beat Manchester City 6-5 on aggregate after extra-time.
They will now meet in Paris on May 28, and Ronaldinho has teamed up with travel experts Expedia to provide his unique tour of one of the world's most beautiful cities ahead of the clash.
“During my career I have played in and visited many stunning cities, but Paris has a special place in my heart, it was my first European home," said Ronaldinho.
"I am so excited to be partnering with Expedia for my Route 10 Freestyle Tour, so I can pass on my love and passion for the city and really make sure fans are making the most of their travels outside of the 90 minutes of football."
Ronaldinho's 90-minute tour will take in the views of the most famous monuments along the Seine, stop at the World Cup and Ballon d'Or winner's favourite Parisian neighbourhood, and end with a drink at a hotel rooftop bar.
Expedia are also also offering two tickets to the Champions League final at the Stade de France as part of the prize, as well as a two-night stay in a four-star hotel.
