It is difficult to anticipate when La Sagrada Familia will be crowded. Typically, major attractions experience long queues during peak travel periods such as summer, weekends, Christmas, Easter, and local holidays. By purchasing a skip-the-line ticket, you can bypass the queue if there happens to be one. Unfortunately, it is impossible to predict specific days and times when lines are likely to form.
To ensure safety, all visitors are required to pass through metal detectors at the security checkpoint. Please anticipate a wait time of approximately 20-30 minutes to clear security.
In order to enter the Sagrada Familia Basilica, visitors are expected to dress appropriately as it is a Catholic church. Tank tops, strapless shirts, short shorts, or sandals are not permitted. Additionally, visitors are not permitted to enter the church wearing clothing intended for celebrations or festivities.
Please arrive at the meeting point 15 minutes prior to the scheduled departure time.
This tour/activity will have a maximum of 25 travelers

Our guide spoke excellent English and he knew the history and told us the story of the Sagrada Familia as if we were there when it was being built.

The ad says it's a 1.5 hour tour. The actual tour is one hour, plus 30 minuets waiting in line. The tour guide is mediocre. An audio tour would be better in crowds.

This was a mental explosion, once inside. Seeing this beautiful chapel - a work in progress - is simply stunning. Tour was as well handled as it could be in such a crowded tourist spot, earphone communication was spotty at times, but what did come through simply made the visit even better. Our guide really knew her stuff - highly professional and a joy to follow around. Take her advice, stick around after the tour and explore slowly.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly. She was willing to answer questions. I gave a 4/5 due to the sound equipment not being good. It was somewhat difficult to understand her, not her fault.

Our guide Paula was very interesting, we learnt lots of information and lots of other stuff that you might not read in the guide books. This made for a very interesting tour with a very professional guide. I would highly recommend this tour.

This is a very convenient way to book Sagrada Familia in advance when you can’t book directly on the SF website because American credit cards sometimes don’t work on European websites when you are trying to book in the states. But once in Spain I found it easier to book things online like La Pedrera etc. The day we went on our SF tour I was at the Barcelona tourist info kiosk to get info about subway/bus transit and those in line for SF tickets were able to purchase self guided tours for two days later. That’s not to say our guided tour was a bust, Olga was very good, but the audio system she used was faulty and the negotiation of a group of 26 in such large crowds was cumbersome. If you aren’t up to DIY this is the tour to take but we’d do it differently in the future.
