It was a one lifetime experience. The organization, the staff, the arrangements, all great . The fact thet we got there at Christmas time was a good and not soo good thing . Good for the decoration and the places you made them fun but i would have been soo happy to see the court without all of the preparation for the Christmas flair

The tickets were delivered quickly and the experience was great. The only difficulty was to download the audioguides through the official Sagrada Familia app, but with the help of the staff we were able to make it.

Our tour guide Berta was wonderful and knowledgeable. We were able to learn many things from Park Guell and Sagrada Familia that we wouldn't have known or probably missed if we didn't have a tour guide. These places have beautiful arts and full of history. Definitely worth a visit when in Barcelona!

What to expect on a private tour of Sagrada Familia

  • Meet your expert guide at the entrance: Begin your journey at the designated meeting point in front of the Sagrada Familia. Your expert guide (usually a licensed architect or historian) welcomes you and outlines the tour’s personalized itinerary while ensuring a swift check-in process with skip-the-line benefits.
  • Explore architectural masterpieces at your own pace: Your guide directs you to critical features such as the Nativity and Passion facades. Each area is explored with thorough explanations of style, symbolism, and historical context, transforming the basilica into a living history lesson.
  • Customized route through the Sagrada Familia: Your guide crafts a route based on your interests, whether that means focusing on Gaudí’s unique techniques or exploring hidden details rarely highlighted in group tours. Expect stories behind each element and unique insights.
  • Flexible scheduling and special requests: Need extra time at a particular section or want to skim over an exhibit? Private tours offer flexible scheduling and customization options, ensuring that every moment aligns with your personal interests.

Meet your expert guide

Not just anyone can lead a private Sagrada Familia tour. Your guide is a licensed architect or historian, often with advanced degrees in architectural studies or cultural heritage, and years of experience bringing Gaudí’s vision to life. They know the basilica inside out, from hidden passageways to the best crowd-free timings, and subtle details that make the architecture unforgettable.

Expect more than facts. A private guide becomes a storyteller, curator, and conversation partner, ready to adapt the pace, depth, and focus of the tour to your interests. With them, the Sagrada Familia feels less like a tourist site and more like a place of personal discovery.
