Park Guell and Sagrada Familia with Tower

Explore the breathtaking architecture of The Basilica and Expiatory Temple of La Sagrada Familia, considered one of the most visited buildings in the world and one of Gaudi's masterpieces.

In 1882, construction of Sagrada Familia began under architect Francisco de Paula del Villar. In 1883, when Villar resigned, Antonio Gaudi took over as chief Architect, transforming the project with his architectural and engineering style, combining Gothic and curvilinear Art Nouveau forms. The interior is rich in symbolism and a place to discover how Gaudi acquired most of his inspiration.

Upon arrival, your experienced guide will lead you inside the basilica, where you will receive an audio headset to follow expert commentary as you explore the stunning nave, intricate columns, and colorful stained-glass windows. Walk freely and marvel at the interplay of light and structure that brings Gaudí’s vision to life. Step outside to admire the Nativity and Passion façades, each telling a unique story through intricate sculptural details.

At the end of the tour, you will visit the museum, where there is an exhibition of drawings, plaster models, and pictures about the history and development of this basilica from its early beginnings to the present day.

After exploring and learning about Gaudi's influence in the construction of one of the most monumental architectural designs of all time, you will proceed to Park Guell. Located in the upper part of Barcelona, Park Guell is considered, by many, one of the most emblematic works of Gaudi.

The park was declared a World Heritage Site by the UNESCO in 1984. The original project was meant to be urbanization ordered by the Catalan entrepreneur Eusebi Guell; it was later inaugurated as a public park in 1926. In this project, Gaudi displayed all his creative talent with a naturalistic style intending to acquire integration of architecture and nature.

This tour provides an experienced guide, radio guide system, entrance fee to Park Guell and Sagrada Familia, along with transfers to and from each destination. A once in a lifetime opportunity that should not be passed.

A wonderful must see to believe tour.
These 2 tours are among the highlights of our pre-extension Viking cruise visit arranged through AAA in late December. We gathered at the meeting place near the park, maybe 12-15 of us, checked our sound boxes and our gracious informative guide (in English and Spanish) began our walk to and through the park. It was a sunny cool day but still lots of people (can only imagine peak season). In some places he helped me navigate the stairs. A wondrous park, not rushed but moved along, plenty of time for pictures. Hike out of the park and he had taxis take us to their office right by Sagrada. Time for a quick lunch and tour began. Very informative, skipped the lines, and sun was streaming through the western red windows. After tour of inside and outside we had free time to explore and do the gift shop. Easy to get a cab afterwards. Big day, got our steps in, a very positive experience. Recommend, wasn’t anything we didn’t like

Two tours, two very different guides
Guide for Park Guell was wonderful, with excellent interpretation of forms in artwork. Sagrada Familia guide spent too much time discussing biblical references in facade. We had to insist we were on a cruise schedule to be allowed time to access the tower.

Park Guell tour was fair but tour of Sagrada Familia was excellent. Tour guide very thorough and passionate about the church. Loved going yp unto one of the towers. Not as difficult walking down as I thought it would be. Sagrada Familia is beautiful.

Two Must See Sights in Barcelona!
Nice tour of two must see sights in Barcelona. Included bus transportation from Park Guell to Sagrada Familia although the bus could have let us out much closer to the Cathedral. Not much time allowed for lunch between the two sites because of this. The expedited entry into the Cathedral was nice, but there is a bit of a waiting line to access the Tower. Not sure the Tower view was worth the wait and the walk down from the Tower is quite steep and a little precarious if you're older.
