Discover the Sagrada Família, Barcelona’s iconic masterpiece, not just a church but a captivating story in stone. With your private tour guide leading the way, you won’t miss a thing, including the many intricate details inside and out.
Begin with the basilica’s richly carved outer façades. Each symbol and sculpture holds meaning, from the Nativity façade’s depiction of Christ’s birth to the Passion façade’s crucifixion symbolism, expertly deciphered by your guide.
Your guide will then usher you inside as you stand in awe at the rainbow-colored world before you. See a stone forest below a vaulted ceiling and a kaleidoscope of stained glass windows. Your guide will share the secrets of Gaudí’s groundbreaking techniques, still remarkable today.
Your private tour ends inside the basilica, where you can stay as long as you like. If you’ve selected the upgrade (subject to availability), you’ll ascend the Nativity or Passion tower with a quick elevator ride and be rewarded with a brilliant city panorama from the top. What better way to end your tour of the breathtaking Sagrada Família?
