5.00Very informative - while you can go in yourself and take the photos having the guide was well worth the money. Loved hearing about the history of the families/generations working on this church and what it means to Barcelona.

5.00I can't say enough good things about Mark our tour guide. We had our entire family on the tour (12 people) and everyone agreed Mark was such a knowledgeable and friendly guide. He made our visit to the the Sagrada Familia far more enjoyable than had we visited without the tour.

5.00Amazing! Being with the group allowed us to skip the line for both the front entrance and the tower. Our guide Rosa gave us excellent information about the construction, scuplturea, and best places for photos and self exploration following the tour.
Out of this world.

5.00What a wonderful tour. Carlos knew so much about the church and really gave us so much information. He was super friendly and answered everyone’s questions. He even ran back to get someone that got sidetracked. Personally I don’t feel like going into the tower is a must. We were on the Passion side and I was disappointed in how little we could see. Save yourself the money on that part in my opinion. Otherwise it was fantastic. Great meeting location across the street and away from the crowds.
Will not recommend

1.00After more than 17+ hours traveling to visit the Sagrada Família with 11 of my family members tour guide made us wait to meet outside a random pizza spot and when got to us he was completely unwilling to make an effort to help get in after being late for 6 mins. Appointment was made at 3pm and we all arrive running and lost to the meeting point including my grandmas of 84 years old located outside a random pizza spot near the cathedral. I would never in my life schedule a tours with company IBE TOURS. Completely unresonable and lack of common sense. Unbelievable!
