5.00Interesting history of the architect and construction of the church itself. A guided tour is highly recommended especially if your tour guide is as great as ours.

2.00Too much time wasted across the street and around the outside of the Sagrada Família. Would have liked to spend More time inside. We couldn’t visit so many places and no tower, no crypt. We spent 30+ mins standing across the street and another 20 standing next outside waiting for tickets and looking at the model. I didn’t enjoy this tour at all.
Great tour, very informative.

4.00Carlos was a good guide, but the equipment used for audio was not working properly in my case. It detracted a bit from the experience, but again, Carlos was very good and we enjoy the experience overall.

5.00Tickets are hard to come by, even early. This was a great way to get tickets and a guide. The tower climb was cool but I didn’t love the stairs down. Our guide was great and very informative.

5.00Rosa was a wonderful tour guide. She explained the history of the Sagrada Família in a way that made us have a good understanding of the architect’s style and purpose. Rosa’s descriptions of each feature were thorough and insightful. My sisters and I were able to take the tower tour as well, and we left with a fine appreciation of the magnificent cathedral.
So disappointed.

1.00So disappointed. Purchased tickets for inside tour with tower option. But guide reviewed exterior for one and one-half hours before we left tour; going inside on our own. Never did get to go up in the tower. We had already done morning tour which included exterior review.
