This guided tour was the highlight of our trip To be sure, the Sagrada Familia is the most unique and outstanding cathedral we have ever visited. What enhanced our exoerience even mores was the outstanding guide we had. He was knowledgeable, clearly passionate about his work, and totally professional. All of us were provided with heard sets and the guide was meticulous about ensuring that we were all assembled around him whenever he had important information to share. His descriptions were vibrant, and he was truly a master teacher who used great questioning techniques to engage us in the experience.

Our Guide had the gift of storytelling, and was able to weave the facts of construction together with an excellent knowledge of the Biblical references contained within Gaudi’s architectural masterpiece. This, coupled with a genuine love of the Sculptural aspects of the Sagrada Familia, and an excellent command of English, made for captivating listening throughout. The narrative synchronised perfectly with the timing and pace of our visit, and resonated long after the visit was over. This one and a half hour guided visit gives you more than your monies worth.

A must see attraction. Visiting this place without a tour guide would have been worthless. There is so much history about how and why Gaudi created this masterpiece. Our tour guide Victor was wonderful. He gave very detailed explanations and took the time to answer our questions. Without his description at every point of the tour, just walking through would have meaningless. He was very professional and knowledgeable with a great sense of humour. Everyone appeared interested with the information he provided. Highly recommend this tour and tour guide.

Extremely detailed explanation; Sagrada Família is such a wonder in the world. I enjoyed the tour a lot. It took 1.5h but it’s not enough for such an enormous art. The guide talked about all essential stuff then after the tour, we revisited the whole church especially the museum section to grasp more info. Overall, no line, good guide, good value for money.

The tour guide gave the information in a very clear and interesting way. He reflected back on ‘the story’ and allowed one to follow the long process on building the ‘Sagrada Família’. He welcomed questions or clarification at any time during the visit. All questions were seen as important and this allowed the visitors an active role during the tour.

The guide Juan Miguel was very good and the tour was really great and informative. Unfortunately, it didn't take as long as planned because the church was closed. We didn't know that in advance and we had actually planned - as we were promised - to stay a little longer and look around. Our guide seemed surprised too. Otherwise highly recommended.

With Helena as your guide, you won't lose a crumb of your visit. You will discover all the details and representation that Gaudí wanted to share with us. We realize that really nothing is done at random. Not taking a guide would be a shame. Many thanks to Helena, it was a rich moment!

Take a 1.5-hour guided tour of Gaudi's masterpiece to make your visit to the Sagrada Familia immemorable. Take in the Basilica's dreamlike exterior and interior on a private tour or in a small group with a knowledgeable guide.

You will learn about the ongoing construction, the anticipated completion date and how generations of artisans, architects and artists were educated to realize Gaudi's vision.

Before proceeding to the Basilica's entrance, your guide will meet you outside and begin the tour with a brief introduction. After passing through security, learn all about the Nativity Façade, the Basilica's first completed part.

You will then enter the Sagrada Familia's interior. Admire the world created by the stained-glass windows' intensely colored light and the ceiling's branch-shaped columns.

Gaudi wanted the interior to feel and look like a walk through the woods, with the light sifting through the leaves of the forest.

You will be informed about the Passion Façade, which depicts the crucifixion of Jesus, as you exit the Basilica. Through the tower's stark and angular sculptures the drama of the Passion will be vividly revived. Like the most of the Sagrada Familia, this façade was constructed after Gaudi's death.

Next, visit the Sagrada Familia Schools, which are for the children of those who worked on the Sagrada Familia. Learn how it was rebuilt multiple times and even relocated to make room for the Basilica.

Your final stop will be the Sagrada Familia Museum, where your guide will show you original plans and sketches that show how complicated Gaudi's vision and architecture were. Artifacts from Gaudi's life and the history of the Basilica, such as his upside-down model can also be found here.
