Xtell did a great job as our tour guide. She was very knowledgeable and kept the tour interesting. She easily transitioned back and forth between English and Spanish to provide the same information to both groups of language speakers.

This was an amazing experience- our guide’s name was Txrell, who made sure our tour was informative, fun, and full of the best views. She provided so much insight on Sagrada Família, and we left wishing we could have had more tours with her! The whole process for booking and meeting up was easy, we were able to understand Txrell clearly (she spoke bilingual and was super efficient about it), and we learned some off hand tidbits she personally knew about the space. Cannot recommend her and this group enough!!
Txell was an amazing tour guide who has lots of energy and answered all our questions!
Txell was our guide and it was really impressive, she made the tour in English and Spanish, with both being perfectly clear to understand. Lots of details from the façades and the interior. Highly reccomend it.
The tour was very nice, the guide, Adrià, was wonderful. However I found it quite overpriced for one hour tour, compared to the entry price without tour.
Our guide Txell was very knowledgable and friendly. We were shown all of the key areas and there was enough time to ask her questions. There was nothing she could not answer.
Our Guido Adria Was very knowledgeabke about the history of the Sagrada Familia, Gaudi and the City of Barcelona. The Tour was very engagiert!
Anna Pla magnificent. Very professional. Very knowgeable. Excellent English.
Anna Pla was very knowledgable and helpful
Very friendly and useful, not too rush,
Ana Pla was a great tour guide she was super inclusive and patient. Learned a lot about Sagrada Família. Was quick and to the point
Anna Pla great experience would highly recommend it
Lots of knowledge and made sure to translate in English for everything! Anna Pla Artau was my guide.
Txell was our guide. She seemed knowledgeable but the tour was given in both Spanish and English at the same time and her voice was so monotone that made it difficult to focus on the history. Wouldn’t repeat.
Txell was very helpful and knowledgeable. She was patient with the group and gave great descriptions of the entire space and each carving.
Txell was a perfect guide for our tour! Very happy and respectfull. We’re celebrating my mom’s birthday and the timing of the tour was perfect. All the curiosities and history about the Sagrada Familia were clarified and we felt happy to have this tour.
Txell was a great guide - very knowledgeable and clear in her explanations
Very interesting informations
Excellent tour guide! Anna is the best! Be sure to ask for her for Sagrada tour in English. Full of interesting facts to hear about
Txell was a great and informational guide! Very easy meeting point instructions
Our tour guide Txell was excellent. She was an architecture professor, and her knowledge of the Sagrada Família really showed throughout the tour. She was passionate about the history, design, and symbolism of every part of the basilica, and she encouraged interaction by answering questions and sharing fascinating details that we would have otherwise missed. She conducted the tour in both Spanish and English, which worked very well for our group. The audio hearing device was also clear and made it easy to follow everything she explained. The only downside was the meeting and waiting process. It was a very hot day, and while we waited for the tickets, our group remained in direct sunlight. It would have been much better if the group had been gathered in a shaded area until it was time to enter. Overall, it was a great experience. I learned so much about the Sagrada Família, and seeing this incredible church with such a knowledgeable guide made the visit even more memorable.
Anna Pla was an excellent guide!!
Good tour and good explanations thank you
The guided tour with Anna Pla was very good. The guide was very informative and funny!

Great tour with Txell! Very knowledgeable and interesting.
It was very informative. Txell did a great job!
We had Anna for the tour, she was exceptional! She did a fantastic job of showing us all of the important religious, historical, and Instagram worthy places within Sagrada Família! Highly recommend going in the evening during golden hour!!
Great tour! Ana Pla was informative and a great guide. Highly recommend if you’re visiting Barcelona.
Tour was very good the guide Txell was very clear informative and friendly she made sure the tour was interesting and flowed well. However the meeting point was completely different than that that was texted to us I had to call when guide wasn’t at the point we were told she would be . We weren’t the only people in the same predicament other people were waiting for the guide to arrive. This was not the guides fault as we found out that the majority of the group was given a different location. Better information should be provided.
Txell was an amazing guide! Definitely worth the trip :)
The guided tour around “Sagrada Familia” in Barcelona was supposed to last 90 minutes but it lasted only 70 Minutes. It was also supposed to be in English language but in was in Spanish and English language. Even worse the guide used to speak at least 2/3 of the time in Spanish and only 1/3 in English. Actually, Viator cheated us! It is a pity because the guide was knowledgeable and friendly and the given information was correct! I would not recommend Viator!!
I haven’t met any other guides but I am quite confident that Charlie isn one of the best! Very informative, educational and an awesome orator! Made it extremely interesting. I shall be back and will look for the same guide
Oliver was a great guide, he was very funny and told the stories very well. He also added personal touches like showing us photos of the inside at different times of the day.
This tour/guide was worth every penny! Oliver was such an amazing guide! His mix of knowledge and humor make this my favorite tour of my trip.
Oliver did a great job with a multilingual tour of Sagrada Familia. The building is amazing and he helped us focus.
Txell guide from History & Legends Comedy Tours, she was great. Very explanatory and clear. Answered every questions
Guided tour was a great experience. Our guide Txell was great and very knowledgeable.
This was a wonderful and very informative tour! Txell did an incredible job guiding us in both Spanish and English, which is a big task. Communication from the company was good and meetup instructions were very clear. The group was not too large, 24 people, and we got little radios so we could hear Txell throughout. I would highly recommend this tour!
It was a very great tour and Charlie explained it very clean including humor.
Roger was great , he was really informative and immersive. Included all the group . I was engaged throughout and the time flew by. Would definitely recommend . Very well priced as well .
Amazing experience with the guide Charlie - he made the tour remarkably interesting and funny! Highly recommended, you won’t experience Sagrada Família without a guide, make sure you ask for Charlie !
Charlie was funny, knowledgeable, and amazing guide.
