Classic Cathedral - Well worth the cost. Our guide was very knowledgeable and the view from the rooftop was spectacular. If you can, do the VR. Cool views of the city.

We were on a tight... - We were on a tight schedule and ran 5 min behind. I called ahead and notified them and they were able to meet us at the entrance before the tour started. Our guide helped expand our understanding of the cathedral and was very knowledgeable. Once the tour was over we were able to free roam. It’s an amazing place to get lost in. I wish we had more time to explore as we would have spent more time there. It was beautiful and rich with history and art. I would highly recommend doing this tour. Especially if you couldn’t get tickets for Sagrada Família. The Barcelona Cathedral is worth the visit.

Beautiful views and excellent guide - Visiting the Barcelona Cathedral was one of the highlights of our trip. The architecture is stunning, but what truly impressed us was the view from the terrace—you get an incredible perspective of the Gothic Quarter, with its rooftops and narrow streets full of history. The guide also did a fantastic job, sharing interesting facts and details that we wouldn’t have noticed on our own. It was a very enriching visit and absolutely worth it!

Wonderful Introduction to Barcelona Cathedral - We thoroughly enjoyed our first day in Barcelona with this wonderful tour of the Barcelona Cathedral. We were so fortunate to have the guide to ourselves, and he did a fantastic service walking us through this timeless work of art and architecture. His knowledge of the history and traditions brought the experience to life in a way we could not have achieved on our own. The description of the martyrdom of Santa Eulalia is not to be missed, definitely not for the squeamish! Included is access to the rooftop terrace with unmatched views of the city and a surprisingly vivid virtual reality experience that was a little unnerving but definitely worth it!

Shambolic tour of Barcelona cathedral - We booked a tour with a company I will disclose on request. The organisation prior to the tour was good, BUT that is where it ended. The tour guide was missing at the specified time and place. The information given for a tour in English was in spanish. He wasn't apologetic for the mistakes, without an audible apology. We decided that the tour was going to be a shambolic as the start and refused to go. On contacting a representative of the company to complain, we received polite abuse and were refused a refund .
I am not usually someone who complains, but I was incensed at the cavalier attitude.
