Our tour with Pilar at the Sagrada Familia was absolutely breathtaking! Her deep knowledge and passion for Gaudí's masterpiece truly brought the experience to life. She guided us to the perfect moments and angles to fully appreciate the interplay of light through the stained glass windows, which was nothing short of magical.
Pilar's insights helped us understand the symbolism behind the colors and how the light transforms the space throughout the day, making the visit feel both personal and spiritual. She was patient with our questions and made sure even the youngest members of our group felt included and captivated by the experience.
If you're looking to discover the Sagrada Familia in a way that truly highlights its beauty and significance, Pilar is the guide for you. This was an unforgettable moment that we will cherish forever!Great experience for kids and adults

Pili is not only experienced, but she also possesses a wealth of information and knows every corner of Barcelona. She took the time to explain the rich history of the city as we leisurely strolled around, covering practically every part of it. Having lived there, Pili shared her personal experiences, making the tours of various churches and historical sites absolutely epic.
Her passion and deep understanding of Barcelona brought the city's stories to life in a truly engaging manner. Every step of the tour was infused with her unique perspective and insightful commentary. From the intricate details of the Gothic Quarter to the grandeur of Sagrada Familia, Pili's guidance made each site memorable.
I cannot wait to return to Barcelona and have Pili as our guide once again. Her tours are undoubtedly 100% worth it. For anyone visiting Barcelona, I highly recommend experiencing the city through Pili's expert eyes. She truly makes the exploration unforgettable.
Awesome Tour Guide

We were so fortunate to have connected with Pili! She was an incredible help with guiding us through the details of our day together in advance. She is a historical master of Gaudi from the artist's lens--not just facts and figures--but color and light. She brings it alive! We thoroughly enjoyed our day with her!Barcelona through the eyes of an artist!

Pili is an artist, and we have really enjoyed the tour with her. She shows a different side of things! Not just the facts that one can read elsewhere. Can be interesting even for those who have been and seen Sagrada Familia many times!An artist's perspective

We visited Barcelona in September and from the moment we met Pilar we were put at ease and knew we were in good hands. We chose to extend our tour to Park Guell followed by lunch and tour outside Sagrada Familia and inside. Being an artist myself, it was a pleasure to share insights, and get a thorough understanding of Gaudis motivations, intentions and genius.
The following day we visited The Salvador Dali museum in Figueres, (highly recommend!) followed by lunch on the Costa brava beachfront topped off with a visit to Pilars glass studio where we were able to get a thorough understanding of her work and techniques. The crowning glory are the pieces that she designed and installed expertly at the Sagrada Familia.
All in all we were treated to two fantastic days we will never forget. Thank you, Pilar!
Pili was the highlight of our trip

My family and I had the pleasure of touring Sagrada Familia with Pili last month, and it was a TRULY unforgettable experience. Delighted to discover her tour focusing on Light, Color and Architecture … I was even more excited to learn that she herself is an award-winning artist and has designed and built glass sculptures for the roof of this iconic structure!
As a scholar of all-things-Gaudi, she shared fascinating insights about the history, architecture, and symbolism, making the intricate details really come alive. Her deep passion and extensive knowledge were evident throughout the tour.
Pili was very accommodating to the specific needs of our group, which ranged in age from 17 to 82, and helped us personalize our experience so everyone felt comfortable and engaged. We also appreciated her photography skills – she knew exactly where to capture the best shots with the best LIGHT!
Pili – thanks SO much for such a wonderful, memorable experience!
A passion for Light and Gaudi!

La Sagrada Familia would be fascinating and captivating walking in knowing nothing about it. Pili was such a great guide. Her personal experience and immense admiration for Gaudi really gave color to an already vibrant experience. She explains why the temple is so impressive in a way that lets you experience it even more deeply and with a greater appreciation of what you’re seeing. Illuminate your tour with good vibes

Every moment with Pili was fun and exciting. She truly loves and knows everything that makes GAUDI so special. We enjoyed our time with her greatly, and would recommend her tour to anyone interested in the mind of Gaudi, knowledge beyond the historical facts. My partner is a photographer and artist, and Pili even took time to show her certain camera tricks to emphasize the true magic of GAUDI and his work. It was wonderful all around! Thanks to Pili I can now truly understand and recognize the genius behind one of the most profound and influential architects/artists that has ever lived! Pilar is passion!!
