Details

Take a knowledgeable guide on a tour of the La Sagrada Familia cathedral and enjoy a Barcelona's most famous landmark in the morning light.

During this tour you'll take in the bounty of Gaudi's genius. The Sagrada Familia is legendary for its striking architecture and art features. Antoni Gaudi, a modernist architect, was completely consumed by it. Construction began in 1882 and has not been completed.

During the tour, your guide will point out the different facades of the nativity and the passion. You will also learn about the Holy Family's representations and symbolism as a stone-built expression of Christian ideology, carved in stone.

As you learn about the history of the church, pay attention to the Christian iconography. The roof is supported by angled pillars that look like a web of tree branches.

The Museu Gaudi is located below the surface. Strolling through its rooms you'll discover some important information about Gaudi's life and work. Besides that, there is a viewing platform above the architect's burial site and a crypt where masses are held.

This was a lovely tour, I would highly recommend going in with a guide as there is so much to see and learn about, our guide Manu was excellent! She had a lot of knowledge to share and kept us engaged in her explanations on what we were looking at. I found the tour informative and interesting. Once the tour is over you can stay on and look around more, the tower was an awesome experience- absolutely breath taking views from the top, the stairs on the way down are a very steep and narrow spiral staircase so bare that in mind when booking. We found the whole experience well worth the money spent, honestly the Sagrada Familia is out of this world!

Book in advance in a must. We arrived to meet our guide, there was confusion of how many people were booked with Amigos tours and the guide asked if 2 people in the group would wait until the later session 2 hours later at 5.30pm. None of us volunteered and the office was contacted and asked to speak with named people in the group. Eventually 45 minutes later we was all allowed in. Sagrada Familia inside is absolutely amazing, spectacular and stunning. we had audio guide inside and it felt a little rushed (which I think was due to the delay getting into the church) The group was divided at the end for the tower view. We was refused entry for the towers due to it being too late? Which was very disappointing and the guide asked us to contact the office to get a refund for the towers. We was refunded £10 for 2 people? But it wasn't about the money it was about the whole experience of visiting the church and towers.

The meeting point was clear and the waiting Guides friendly and approachable. We were given lots of information about La Sagrada Familia in an informal and interesting way. Once in La Sagrada Familia the Guide gave us plenty of time to marvel whilst still guiding us and telling us stories of the various points within the basilica.

We were guided by Manou. And she was a great guide! Telling us in English about the Sagrada Familia in a very interesting way. One thing was hard to miss, is that many of the people sitting in front of the altar were sitting in a very innaprpriate way. It was written that it's a place of prayer. But many sitting with crossed legs, and guys one leg above the other, relaxing. I think guides can also help in this matter if they mention this and stress on appropriate behavior just as they asked to remove caps and sunglasses. By the way, the voucher said no shorts/dresses/sleevless tops, but many people entered the cathedral without issues. Unfortunately, I think it has become a more commercial place just so they can collect money for ths project. It was a bit sad.

Our tour guide was great. The beginning of the booking was a little disjointed due to late comers. The tour guide knew quite alot about the site, as well as Barcelona in general. She made getting through the security checkpoint very easy for us. Would recommend getting the tower access.

Tour guide (Clara) met us promptly and was very informative at every step of the tour. She knew the history of the Sagrada Familia and so much of the back story. We walked through the interior, stopping at several important points where we were given background and highlights that enhanced our appreciation of the basilica. We ended the tour by taking the elevator up the tower and walking down the 400+ steps, enjoying great views on the way.

The Sagrada Familia tour was pretty decent. Lots of cool things to see and explore if you can. I think not having the actual ticket was a problem because we were kind of encouraged to go all at the same time, but it was workable. Every one should know beforehand that you should have a one euro coin to store your belongings in the locker to go up the tower. As far as the tour, yea it was nice, but I expected more. It felt a little brief for my liking. Not having to wait in line did help a lot, wish we could have gotten in before everyone else though. Individuals get in before groups.

Guide was awesome and very knowledgeable! I cannot imagine visiting the cathedral without a guide now as he offered a lot of insight. It was easy to hear because we had headphones too. We were not allowed tower access unfortunately but the guide made up for it by extending our tour. This cathedral is unlike anything you'll ever see. It's a must visit!!

The private tour, with our guide Sara, was so worth the extra price for my husband and me. Sara, our guide, took the time to explain things and answered any questions we had, no matter how silly or stupid they sounded. She gave us the time to take lots of photos and even showed us a few tricks about getting the best shot. Going as a private tour made it much easier to get around and hear everything that Sara was telling us. The only negative was we did not get to do the tower tour, due to no time slots available, but I contacted the company and they refunded the difference. Spend the extra money and book a private tour. You won't be disappointed If you are lucky, you will have Sara as your guide.

Tour guide was brilliant. The tour started 30 minutes late though due to security checks which was quite frustrating with the waiting. Hey nice we were in though it was smooth sailing. Very short tour for the price and we purchased this ticket for the tower tour however it was closed.
