Step by Step

By taking this guided tour of Santa Maria del Mar in Barcelona with skip-the-line access, you'll get to know one of the legendary architectural gems in the heart of Catalonia's capital, located in the La Ribera neighbourhood.

You'll have the chance to explore the interior of the church and the terraces, from where you'll get a dreamy visual panorama of the city. The church is an exquisite example of Catalan Gothic architecture, with stunning details and a fascinating history.

The approximately one-hour guided tour will take you through the timeline of the building, from its construction to its importance in the lives of the locals. You will learn about the craftsmanship of the artisans and workers who built it over 600 years ago.

The construction itself was an impressive achievement for a church of this size and complexity, including details of slender, tall columns that give a sense of spaciousness and light.

One of the most interesting things about this guided tour is that you will have access to places that are not normally open to the public. You will be able to go up to the terrace to enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of Barcelona and admire the beautiful tower.

Inside you can find many interesting details, such as the side chapels, stained glass windows and sculptures. There is also a large rose window on the façade, which is one of the largest in the world.
