Traveler reviews
Missed Opportunity
Having toured the basilica 2 other times we were looking forward to this visit---BUT we had arrived late the night before from a transoceanic flight and unfortunately slept in the morning of the tour!!
Pass The Buck
We needed to reschedule from a Saturday Tour to a Monday Tour because our flight got cancelled and went out one day later. We were charged a “penalty” charge of 60% per ticket. We tried to reschedule this when we knew we would miss our original date. The company would not waive or reduce this fee. Everyone wanted to pass the buck; travel agent, American Airlines, tour company. Very bad experience.
Barcelona Must See
If you are in Barcelona, the Sagrada Familia is a must see! Every step is like an adventure. There are so many things to see and a tour guide is a must. Our guide name was IXELL and she had excelent knowledge.
Great way to tour La Segrada Familia
This tour allowed us to “skip the line” with a guide. Sarah F. who fully explained and guided us through security, into the church and provided us with a wonderful overview of the history on through the current day construction. She was personable, professional and answered questions. After the official tour concluded, she explained how to get a view of a tower, which is at your own pace. You are also able to spend as much time as you want on the grounds and in the church. Definitely recommend this tour if you want both a guide and chance to explore in your own.

Our guided tour of the Sagrada Família was absolutely worth every penny. Irina S. was an exceptional guide — knowledgeable, passionate, and full of fascinating stories about Gaudí’s vision and the basilica’s incredible history. Thanks to her, we didn’t just see the building, we truly understood it.
