Full description

Make your visit to the Sagrada Familia unforgettable with a 1.5-hour guided tour of Gaudí’s masterpiece. See the Basilica’s dream-like façade and interior in a small-group or private tour setting accompanied by an expert guide.

During the tour you will learn about the ongoing construction, the current predicted completion date, and the generations of craftspeople, architects and artists learned how to bring Gaudi’s vision to life. Your guide will meet you outside, starting the tour with a little introduction before heading to the Basilica’s entrance. After you’ve headed through security, hear all about the Nativity Façade, the first completed section of the Basilica. Next, you will step into the interior of the Sagrada Familia. Marvel at the world created by the intense colored light from the stained glass windows and the branch-like columns extending over the ceiling.

Gaudí intended for the interior to look and feel like a walk through the woods, with the light exuding a sense of sifting through forest leaves.  As you exit the Basilica you will hear about the Passion Façade, representing the story of Jesus’ crucifixion. Experience the drama of the Passion through the tower’s stark and angular sculptures. This façade, like most of the Sagrada Familia, was built after Gaudí’s death.  Head to Sagrada Familia Schools next, designed for the children of the workers building the Sagrada Familia. Hear how it was reconstructed more than once and even moved locations to make way for the Basilica.  Your last stop will be the Sagrada Familia Museum, where your guide will share original sketches and plans with you that demonstrate the complexity of Gaudi's architecture and vision. Find artifacts here from Gaudi’s life and the Basilica's own history, like his upside-down model of the Basilica.

When we first arrived we needed to use the bathroom and our guide was very rude about this issue. We finally got it taken care of at the last moment. As older people bathrooms can sometimes be issues in Europe. After the tour got started he was informative and did a good job.

Great idea to go at the end of the day. The extremely large crowds had already dissipated, so we could see the architecture more easily. Our guide was fun to hear. He was in command of a lot of facts about the construction and design of the building. I love the fact that each person was given an earbud and listening device so that we could hear what he had to say without crowding near. It was very effective at allowed us to keep looking at the facilities. Highly recommend this tour.

We had a blast! My husband and I had a fabulous time with Petra and our crew. It’s a great bang for your buck as well, with all food and drinks at each location covered with your ticket fee. Petra was knowledgeable, personable and an all around cool chick. Would definitely do this again if the occasion arose!
