Please include your reference number OR your full name in the email.
Please let us know if you want us to purchase for you:
1- Skip-the-Line tickets to Park Guell
The visit inside is recommended and there is little to see from the outside if you choose not to buy tickets. Almost all guests choose to get tickets in advance.
2- Skip-the-Line tickets to La Sagrada Familia
Please note that we can visit the Sagrada Familia from the outside (panoramic visit) during the tour, and most people are happy with this option. However, if you want to visit inside the church we can purchase skip-the-line tickets for you. Some people prefer to get the tickets for the end of the tour so they can proceed inside for an audio-guided visit after the tour is finished (allowing them to visit other sites during the tour itself).
* Please note – tickets are almost never available on the day itself and queues can be very very long. Pre-purchase is required so please contact us as early as possible as even advance tickets will sell out in the high season.
Thank you!
