Great location to see Sagrada Família!

The Julia Tour Office is across the street on the corner from Sagrada Família. Easy access by taxi. Bathroom inside office. Our guide was excellent. When our walking tour finished (through cooled museum and gift shop) it’s easy to find the taxi line to return to your hotel or next destination. This was great for us 8 older travelers.

An enchanting visit

The visit corresponds to the description on the site. The office where you meet the guide is very close to the Sagrada Familia and the guide was punctual and professional. We enjoyed about an hour and 15 minutes of an overview of both Gaudí's life and the symbols hidden in every corner of the Sagrada Familia. At the end of the guided tour, you can still continue to visit the interior of the church at no extra charge. Despite the numerous visitors, the guide was able to find spots to stop to observe every element. Each participant was given a radio with headphones to hear the guide's voice as clearly as possible. We were very satisfied.

Theme park

The architecture is incredible, the rest is a theme park without spirituality...what a shame if Antonio Gaudí were to raise his head......

Tour cancelled without notice— completely wasted my afternoon and money.

I booked the Sagrada Família Guided Tour for June 30th at 4:00 PM. I traveled all the way to the starting point, arriving 20 minutes early, only to be told face-to-face that the tour was cancelled. The company claimed they notified Viator, but I never received a single email or notification about the cancellation. To make matters worse, Viator sent me an automated "How was your tour?" email afterward asking for a review. I wasted both time and money on transportation to get there for nothing. Utterly disorganized communication between the local operator and the booking platform. Still waiting on a hassle-free refund.

Disappointed

Horrible we were at the church 3:30 Our tour was at 4:00 We could not locate Julia’s Travel address because we were not aware of having to go to that address because it didn’t print out on our paperwork.l called her and she was very short with me when we couldn’t find her !! Then I tried calling her back and no answer!! She refused our refund!!! So due to mis communication I would never use these people again!!
