Sagrada Familia Church and Towers time booking

Dear all,

As the other post suggested, we plan book the advanced online ticket to the Sagrada Familia Church at the earliest time slot (9am). Which time slots will you suggest us to book for visiting the two towers? We plan to do the audio guide as well (does the audio guide lead to the Towers or not?)

Thanks,
Sam

Agree with one hour. We just did it two weeks ago and booked our tower time too early. You want to enjoy the emptiness. Also, they will not let you take backpacks up in the tower elevators and lockers cost 1 euro.

Thanks for the reply. So 9am to enter; 10:15 the first tower; 11:30 the second tower seems make sense?

I think I can only pick one tower right? looks like Nativity is a better choice based on other discussion.

Yes I thought you could only choose one tower. I would perhaps go Passion because the towers are newer and hence the coloured tiles a bit more vivid. The nativity and passsion sculptures are on the facades (around the doors) and viewed from the exterior.

The lockers do NOT cost €1. You need a €1 coin to lock them, but when you open them, the coin is right there for you to take back. A lot of lockers at sights in Europe work this way.

An hour is a good amount of time to allow. After that it's crowded. You can always continue your visit after you descend the tower.
