What to expect
Meet your guide at Plaça de Gaudí before entering the basilica. Expect a narrative tour covering Gaudí's vision, construction techniques, and symbolic details embedded in the columns, ceilings, and façades. The afternoon light creates dramatic contrasts and colour shifts across the interior—bring a decent camera if you want to capture it. Your guide then steps back, giving you space to absorb the scale and intricacy without constant commentary. Two hours total allows roughly 45 minutes of guided talk and 45 minutes of solo exploration.
