What people are saying about Barcelona

This was one of the highlights of my trip to Barcelona. It was crowded even though we visited in the off season. This was an amazing experience. From the beauty of the stained glass windows to the view from the tower. Rich with religious symbolism I recommend the audio guide and tower access. I am deathly afraid of heights so the trip down the spiral stairs was terrifying. Keep that in mind. Obviously I made it! Next time I will be hiring a professional guide to explain the symbolism and meaning.

These two sites in Barcelona are amazing and seeing them in a small group (only 7 in ours) made a huge difference. It was a very personal tour with a fantastic guide (Jordi or George (in America). He explained so much and included stories that brought the experience of the creation/building to life. He helped (with things like stairs and getting the best photo from certain sites). Plus, he knew a great deal of history and was obviously deeply appreciative of Gaudi's works. He was the best guide!

Easy booking system, you can use the service in advance or on the day. Sagrada Familia is a little overpriced however when you have a beautiful sunny day and you can see how the sunlight is moving through the cathedral window it is all worth it. Breathtaking stonework

Every objective I see was beautiful,extraordinary arhitecture,nice people who work there,theweather was little cold,,,,its better to visit Barcelona in summer when is hot outside.The Barcelona stadium is huge,breathtaking,,I recomand sincerly to visit the city,,,

Amazing tour!! Tour guide was very knowledgeable and had an awesome personality. Very easy to interact with. Did not feel rushed throughout the tour. Went at a great pace and was able to get amazing photos along the way. Would highly recommend booking this tour!
