- punctual, sympathetic and clearly recognizable guide (with red flag) - this activity is super interesting, you get sufficient explanation, not too extensive, with an eye for architecture and history, fine details and facts - thanks to the really excellent English-speaking guide Victor we are become a lot wiser about this extraordinarily beautiful building and its well-known architect A. Gaudi

Impressive and almost without words. We were lucky: my daughter and I had a private tour! Guide Victor was able to point out everything to us and without his explanation this would never have come to life for us. We are so happy that we booked the tour with a guide. Recommended and unforgettable!

Juan Miguel is a very nice guide, who gave us a lot of information to understand the project of the sagrada, to see it under its different aspects I recommend!
