Traveler reviews
The church is soooo...
The church is soooo beautiful. Nothing is symmetrical and there’s a feast for the eyes. Our tour guide, Marcos, was really nice and knew what he was talking about. I got so much more from the tour with his guidance than I would have on my own. Best experience in Spain thus far (though it was incredibly crowded- still worth it)!
Wonderful experience
Our guide Marcos was the best. We were late, but able to get in at the last minute because the security outside radioed in to get another security guard to tell Marcos to come get us. He resumed the tour and walked us through the whole story the building tells, he knew the answer to every question, and even had stories about personal relationships he has with one of the carvers who worked on the building. Thank you Marcos!
Mr. Guide, this is great.
Not only did he explain the historical buildings, he also explained the history, the values of the designers and respect for God, which was a very deep experience. I had the best memories with the skill and sense of the guide. Thank you very much.
It's been a good trip for 30 years.
On the day, he guided us to our family from Mexico and us from Japan. I think it took the guide twice as long as usual, but he explained it carefully. I felt Gaudí's feelings … his thoughts … that made the Sagrada Familia. Thank you.
