What to expect from a guided tour
The guided tour starts from the gardens in front of the Passion Façade. In this wonderfully picturesque setting the guide begins to relate the history of the basilica's façades and its majestic spires. Having come through the gardens, you will reach the entry to the basilica and after having collected your headphones which will enable you to hear better and ensure that you don't miss any of the details that are being provided by the guide, you will continue through into the interior of the museum. Here you will be able to see the various phases of planning for this iconic work and find out some of the curiosities that relate to the building's construction. You will then continue on towards the imposing entry doors to the basilica which were designed by Gaudí and brought to life by some of the most celebrated craftsmen of the time. Here you will be told about the significance of the many hidden details and about the statues that tell of the birth of Christ. The real spectacle, however, awaits you inside the building where millions of rays of light with infinite nuances of colour will immediately focus your attention and completely take your breath away. Here too, your guide will explain to you in detail about the significance of these precious stained glass windows which have a dual function: firstly, 70% of the light inside the Sagrada Familia is natural light and secondly....we'll let you be surprised by what your guide will tell you during this fantastic tour of the Sagrada Familia!
