Frequently Asked Questions
Is this tour family friendly?
Yes, this private experience is great for families because the pace can be adjusted to keep everyone comfortable. Children often love the colorful mosaics at Park Güell and the lively atmosphere of the food market.
What if I have concerns about my mobility on this tour?
Since this is a private tour, we can modify the route to accommodate mobility needs. Please contact us after booking so we can coordinate with the transport team and ensure a smooth experience.
Does this tour enter the homes built by Gaudí?
No, however you will likely walk by and stop in front of Casa Mila and Casa Battlo and your guide will offer explanation of these houses. Same goes for Gaudi's house inside the Parc Guell.
Does the Sagrada Família ever close unexpectedly?
The church itself is almost always open for tourists, but on rare occasions parts of the Basilica close for special religious events. If an area normally covered on a tour is closed, our guide will still provide explanations of the closed areas from outside. Plus, we will show you an extra site or gallery to compensate.
What is the dress code for the basilica?
Because the Sagrada Família is a consecrated church, you must cover your shoulders and knees. We recommend bringing a light scarf or shawl if you are wearing a tank top or shorts during the summer.
What if I have dietary restrictions?
If you have any dietary restrictions or allergies, let your guide know before the tastings at Boqueria Market. They will do their very best to accommodate you
