Please note that the number of attractions depends on the option selected. Tickets to the Basilica of Santa Maria del Mar and Barcelona Cathedral are not included in a 2-hour tour.
Guided tours inside the churches during masses and special events are limited. If entry is not possible, the guide will provide all information outside.
2-hour option: For the convenience of all guests, it is best to have 1 licensed guide per maximum of 25 guests. If there are 26-50 people in your group, we will provide the service of 2 licensed guides so that all guests can get the best experience, ask questions and hear the guide well.
3-hour option: we offer skip-the-line tickets and a guided tour of the Basilica of Santa Maria del Mar, including the church, crypt, tribunes and rooftop terrace. You can get in at any time but there is no separate line for ticket holders. Due to the basilica's rules, 1 licensed guide can show a group of 1-15 people, so the price of the tour will be higher if you need more than 1 guide.

Tickets are reserved for a specific time slot so it's important to arrive at the meeting point on time. You can enter at your booked time and skip the line at the ticket office.
