Omg I just watched this video and I have to say by far this is best and most informative video I’ve ever seen. Thank you so much. My husband and I are going may 2024. I have to say you just answered and planned my trip to this amazing place. Love love your video. Definitely going to watch the rest of them.
OMG, your comment made me smile so much, thank you! 😊❤️ I'm thrilled to hear that the video was helpful in planning your visit to La Sagrada Familia. Wishing you and your husband an incredible and memorable trip in May! 🥳🎉
@@FrolicAndCouragegirrrllll thank you thank thank you 😊 so I took your suggestions and visited La Sagrada Familia in the late afternoon to see the sunset through stain glass and omg 😮😮😮😮you were so right. My jaw dropped. It was breathtaking. My husband was speechless. He took more pictures than me lol. I am soooo glad you did a Greece trip because we are going there soon. Love your videos ❤
Haha, yesssss 👏🏽 no problem! Wow, I can’t believe May just came and went just like that! 💨 It makes me sooo happy to know that you were able to experience La Sagrada at sunset. The light coming through the stained glass…the memory STILL takes my breath away 😮💨 The experience is something I will never forget and now we can both re-live the moment and share it with others 😊 Thank you for letting me know how awesome your experience was and cheers to your upcoming adventures in Greece!
I am from Barcelona and I can confirm that your explanation about the Sagrada Familia is very real and complete. Anyway, you are talking about front and back facades and that's not the case. Both façades (the Birth façade and the Passion façade) are side façades. The main front façade has not been built yet, it will be the last to be built. The Sagrada Familia is impressive on the outside but magical on the inside.
I know what you mean - there’s something about the facade that touches your heart ❤️ Maybe it’s the majesty of the structure, maybe it’s the details, maybe it’s knowing that someone truly put their heart and soul into the work and it is really something to behold. I can’t place it but it is powerful!
La Sagrada Familia is a SICB Saint Church Cathedral Basilic (I it’s Iglesia in castellano= church). It’s more than a Cathedral. In Spain have several of the same range since secule XII
Thank you so much! Your video saved me money on tickets for my family of 4. I almost brought them from a site that looked like the official site! I got them from the official site, 50% less and on the time/day I wanted to go
I looove this! Great job discerning a good website vs a fraud site. I hate that some people prey on travelers, but kudos to you for seeing through it all AND save time & money in the process 😎
Happy to introduce you to La Sagrada Familia and share my experience with you Chanel! It is truly stunning 🤩 if you ever get the chance to visit Barcelona, make sure to include it in your itinerary!
Thanks so much for this video. I am also planning a trip to Barcelona and Sagrada Familia was high on our bucket list. As the online tickets are for a specific timeslot, my friends and I were conflicted about booking them in advance or not. After watching your vlog, I have got the confidence to schedule the visit around late afternoon. Lots of love from India ❤
Thank you for the support! ❤️ Ooo Bermuda! I’ve never been but I’ve heard great things - let us know how it is! Plus Europe next year?! I love that you have future fun planned now AND next year 👏🏽
Good Morning, I really liked your video, Thank you. I tried to buy the Sagrada Familia tickets through their official website and all credit cards I used have been denied. Do you know why?
Hi Andrea! I’m sorry to hear that 🥺 It could be a number of things, like their system might be down. Also check to see if your credit cards are setup to accept international payments - in the EU two-factor authentication is common and said Banks have a few issues implementing it, so you may want to give your bank a call to see if there’s anything they can do on their end. Finally, some people find using different credit card vendors - visa vs Amex vs Mastercard might make a difference.
Hi Antoniette, great video, something wasn't really clear for me, hope you don't mind to clear it : if I choose to see one of the tower, without a guided tour, by myself, which are the ways to go up and down? elevator up walking down? walk both ways? Elevator both ways? I really appreciate if you can give us a hand. Also which facade is better view? Thank you, big hug.
It’s all about your preferences 😊 The towers were not fully open during my visit, but if I have the chance to go back to Barcelona I’m going up the towers!
Thank you so much for sharing your visit and telling us about which tickets to get. Do you recommend the best time of day to go? We are working on booking our tickets. ❤
How can I get from aeroport el Prat to Sagrada Familia? Me and my family want to go there between two flights. We have 6 hours. It is possible? Only outside.
It is possible, but it is risky and you really have to be mindful of the time. It takes about 45min - 1hr each way if you take the metro, plus you want to give yourself at least two hours to make it through customs when you return to be safe. Assuming there are no delays, it’s possible. The ride is 30min each way by car/taxi and could save you an hour of time.
hello! thanks for the tips, we are going this year end of May. Just wondering what time of year you went? Is 1600 is still a good time to buy tickets for in May/June?
As a catalan myself, it's weird to hear "LA Sagrada Família", because "La" means "The" in both catalan and spanish, and for me sounds much better "The Sagrada Família" in english. If you want to say its full name, it's "Temple expiatori de la Sagrada Família", so longer.

I saw Sagrada Familia just from the outside and it made me cry. So beautiful and wondrous. I'll be going inside next time!

OMG that church is amazing, I was in awe, just to be there was something, I can't wait to get back in the travel mood, that will be one of my stops
It’s incredible Valerie 😍 To know one man (and his team) had the vision for it is mind blowing 🤯
La Sagrada Familia is a SICB Saint Church Cathedral Basilic (I it’s Iglesia in castellano= church). It’s more than a Cathedral. In Spain have several of the same range since secule XII
Was just there and loved it. Next time im going up the nativity or passion tower for sure!
Isn’t it stunning? 🤩 A tower visit is on my list for our next visit, too!
Nice tips and video Frolic. - great attitude too!
Thank you so much! 😊
@@FrolicAndCourage you're welcome

This is supposed to be a cathédrale so paying 40€ to enter it is just outrageous !! I won’t do it personally !
@LaureBejianiMashk understood! Services are still free on Sunday mornings if you can grab a seat 😊👍🏽❤️
Wow, I never heard of La Sagrada Familia, but this Basilica looks Beautiful.
Happy to introduce you to La Sagrada Familia and share my experience with you Chanel! It is truly stunning 🤩 if you ever get the chance to visit Barcelona, make sure to include it in your itinerary!
Thanks for sharing. Very interesting and informative.
Thanks for watching, Neila! The basilica is full of interesting things 😊❤️
Thank you for the detailed video!
No problem, thank you for watching and for leaving a comment ❤️😊

In so glad you found the video helpful Himan and I’m even more excited for your upcoming trip! Thanks for sending love ❤️
Outstanding video!
Thanks Caroldee! So happy you found and enjoyed the video 😊 Happy travels!
Thank you so much for the details!
Hi, We did the Mediterranean in May and took your advice on clothing 😊 We went to La Sagrada and it was beautiful! Going again soon !
Hey Nina - I love this, thank you for sharing 😊❤️ It helps to have an extra fresh pair of dry clothes! When is the next cruise?
@FrolicAndCourage Bermuda next month. Europe next year! Your Channel is Excellent! 🤌🏻😊
Thank you for the support! ❤️ Ooo Bermuda! I’ve never been but I’ve heard great things - let us know how it is! Plus Europe next year?! I love that you have future fun planned now AND next year 👏🏽
Great video! Do you know about how many steps you have to go up for the Nativity tower? Did you feel claustrophobic going either up or down?
Wonderful information. Will be there in May 2025. What do you see inside the tower or is just to get a view? Thanks
Thank you, MC-Tours! It's mainly just the views of the city and the design inside the cathedral 😊 ✅
We were just there today!
Oh wow 🤩 From your experience, what did you think of the basilica?

Did anyone hear if she suggests going up to one of the towers? Is a tower highly recommended or just inside and tour enough? Thanks!
We are going in less than a month a reserving online now but I'm not sure if we should go to the tower. What do you recommend?
It’s all about your preferences 😊 The towers were not fully open during my visit, but if I have the chance to go back to Barcelona I’m going up the towers!

Thanks so much for watching ladeane! Yes - I recommend 4pm 👍🏽 Feel free to check out the end of the video for all the reasons I loved this time✨😊

Hello Antoniette, thank you for the video. Do I have to buy a Skip the Line ticket with the regular admission ticket? Tks
Hey Oscar! Nope, not at all. When you buy the regular admissions ticket you can go straight to the security line (skip the ticket purchasing line). 👍🏽
Gaudí was an interesting guy!
Yes he was! So creative and talented 👏🏽
hello! thanks for the tips, we are going this year end of May. Just wondering what time of year you went? Is 1600 is still a good time to buy tickets for in May/June?
Hey Rebecca! That’s exactly the same time we went - the end of May 😊👍🏽
Can anyone help me as I heard the service at 9 a.m is free. Does that means it’s a free entry to church?
Yes! It there is no charge to attend Sunday mass service at 9am, but space is limited 😊👍🏾
If I just stay outside for photo do I need to buy the ticket?
No ticket required to stand outside on the street level and take a photo 👍🏽📸
Someone who can help me to get tickets for Sunday 09/24/23. I am lost, I think it is not open on Sundays ???

It's not weird to say "La Sagrada Família" even as a Catalan myself
@@Mogiman94 Obviously, because in catalan "the" is "la"
