La Sagrada Familia with Rosa

5.00Rosa made our visit meaningful and memorable. She clearly has a deep connection with the La Sagrada Família, and was a passionate and engaging host. She shared with us the Basilica’s complex and layered history, cultural and religious significance and architectural prowess in an accessible way. We walked away enlightened and enriched in so many ways.
Astonished and inspired - my two key takeaways from this tour

5.00Our guide David was talented, warm, interesting and enthusiastic, what more could we ask for?! He gave us a fantastic historical and architectural overview of La Segrada Familia and we got so much more than we could have expected. His insights and knowledge of the building were prodigious and we did not expect to come away as inspired by Gaudi’s vision and artistry as we were. When he learned that we were Jewish, David went out of his way to kindly point out symbols and references that would be particularly relevant to us; but the depiction of the gospels through the symbolism and light were just as enthralling. We were disappointed that the high winds had forced a closure of the towers, preventing us from ascending, but we felt we already got a phenomenal overview of this incredible space and place. Thank you, David!

5.00Exceeded expectations. The architecture is even more impressive than we anticipated. Our guide Rosa was fantastic, very knowledgeable, passionate about the project and encouraged questions/input. Unfortunately the tower climb was canceled due to high wind which is of course out of everyone’s hands and we hope to be given a refund for that part. Stay tuned.
Well arranged and a nice guide

5.00It was a very straightforward tour, gathering and visiting. The guide, Marc, was very entertaining, good at storytelling, and trying to make it interactive with the group, answering questions, making jokes, etc. It was one of the best guides I have ever met. Just some feedback for correction, some ways to distinguish him in the crowd would have been useful, a jacket, a flag, something. It was easy to loose him at some points int he crowds.. :)
Take the tour, get around the crowds

5.00Sagrada Familia can be very crowded. But a tour guide will know all the ins and outs, the history and where to look. Suggest you add the tower to your plan. The views of the city and parts of the church you can't see from the ground are excellent.
