5.00This is a must see if you visit Barcelona. David was an excellent guide. Extremely knowledgeable and well spoken. His passion for the Sagrada Familia made the tour even more enjoyable. Do this one for sure.
Allow more time to look...

5.00A not to be missed experience! Carlos was very knowledgeable and honest when giving his theories vs information that was a known fact.
#Gaudi is my guy!

5.00An absolute must! You need a tour for this because of the amount of information that is provided! You will miss a lot if you try to figure it out on your own. Only downside is that there is construction outside of the cathedral and they are still working on the towers! We were allowed to go up one tower and see the views! This is an absolute masterpiece! Have to see it to get the idea! If you are planning a trip to Barca book early - this will definitely sell out!
Wonderful experience!

4.00A lot of walking and standing but totally worth it. Tower access is a must if you aren't afraid of heights, are claustrophobic or have issues with stairs as there is a LOT! We were running late due to traffic but our tour guide Rosa waited for us!
Nice visit that I recommend

5.00Exceptional guide. Really had in depth insight. Smooth entrance and hand off to tower access. So worth it.
A little hard to hear.

3.00Extremely crowded (which we knew about beforehand), along with serious construction going on. Our tour guide, while a lovely lady and enthusiastic in her delivery, was a little hard to understand. She spoke decent English but we literally had to get up close to watch her lips because it was just enough off that we missed about 25% of what she was saying.
Interesting architecture

4.00It’s better to go with a guide then just listen to a taped recording. When it’s sunny out you can see the magical stained glass reflections inside the chirch

1.00Would not recommend this tour. The guide started late, was disheveled and could not get technology to work properly. Her demeanor was not friendly or professional.
