Simply Stunning visit to the Sagrada Família

5.00Words can’t describe the emotions I felt when we first walked into the Sagrada Família. What an amazing experience we had with our fellow travelers. Miguel was such a charismatic tour guide. He pointed out all the hidden Easter eggs throughout the church. I highly recommend this tour company.

Take the Tour at the Golden Hour

5.00Even though it was cloudy, the light that came through at 4 pm left the inside filled with beautiful colors. It was very cold outside, so thank goodness most of the tour was inside the cathedral. Stunning cathedral-well worth seeing and an excellent tour that explained all of the major details. It was definitely worth taking the tour to obtain key understandings of the construction and Gaudi's principles. Would do it again at the Golden Hour.
Amazing and unforgettable experience

5.00We went at low season, Jan 9th and amazingly booked only days ahead on the strength of the reviews of the small group tours. Jorge was excellent There were two from the US and two from the UK and we got all we paid for and more. We had wanted 'Golden Hour' so we. booked 4pm and therein was the bonus: the first sunny day in three weeks! Meeting point worked perfectly. Straight in past all the ticket and check points. Within minutes we were straight through security (airport style) and on to the introductory concourse for the issue of personal auditory aids. Jorge was quick, clear, sensitive and incredibly knowledgeable. For us, his accurate, detailed and largely biblical relating of the architectural detail about the Life, Death and Resurrection of Jesus was as enlivening as it was unexpected. Jorge wove in the history and the Gaudi story very well, all in just over an hour. The golden light from the stained glass was astonishing and Jorge even realised that my phone camera was not performing well and took.our picture on his phone to WhatsApp onwards in minutes. A real treat and well worth it.
Expensive but easy and fun!

5.00We had a great small group - Jorge was very personable and knowledgeable. We didn’t wait in line even though security was very thorough like an airport. He made sure everyone could hear and stayed together. I would only suggest giving info about the crypto messaging, outside of this, it was great!
Amazing Tour Guide & Tour!!

5.00Visiting La Sagrada Familia during the Golden Hour was the highlight of our trip to Barcelona. Jorge was an amazing guide that helped us navigate through security and the crowds of people. We truly did skip the lines with Jorge. He is extremely knowledgeable and gave us a great overview of this majestic building. You can tell he loves his job and is so passionate about La Sagrada Familia. It was a very professional tour with head sets to easily listen to Jorge and the tour was capped to less than 8 people so we could gather around and see his notebook filled with pictures and easily move together as a group. It was partly cloudy the day we went and Jorge was so hopeful for us that the sun would shine through. And as soon as he saw the tiniest glimpse of sun projecting on one of the pillars he quickly ushered us to the perfect spot to watch all the colors come through the stained glass. We had about 15 minutes of the Golden Hour and it was absolutely magical! Thank you Jorge for an unforgettable experience in Barcelona.

5.00Jorge was an incredible guide who prepped us for what to expect during our visit. His knowledge of the church was unparalleled and his english is excellent. He made sure we saw everything important from the perfect locations. I highly recommend this 4pm tour when the light is just perfect.
Great tour!

5.00This tour is intended to take place at the time of day when sunlight perfectly illuminates the modernist stained glass windows of the basilica. Unfortunately, the day of our visit it was pouring rain and very windy at noon, our designated time. The sun only created a mild glow inside from the windows. For me, the tour was still worth it, as we got to skip the lines and learned a great deal from Jorge, our guide. There were only 5 in our group (4 were my family). With our custom headsets, we could hear Jorge perfectly as he gave us many interesting details about Gaudi, the basilica and the culture of Barcelona. Jorge spoke great english and showed kind humor! He took some lovely pictures of our family and ensured we respected the rules of the basilica.
