Booking Sagrada Familia - what time to book if ship docks at 5 AM?

[Mrs Booboo]

Our cruise ends in Barcelona and is scheduled to dock at 5 AM. We are spending the day in Barcelona and I'm trying to figure out what time to book tickets for Sagrada Familia. I know how long it would take us to get from the dock to our apartment and then from there to Sagrada Familia, but I'm unsure what time we can expect to get off the boat.

 

Anybody have experience with what time we can disembark in Barcelona and would there be a long wait for getting a taxi?

Our ship also docked at 5am. We got off the ship a little after 7am (we took our luggage with us - didn't have the ship collect our luggage - wastes far too much valuable time, IMHO). We were among the first passengers to disembark so the wait for the taxi was less than 10 minutes - went directly to our hotel. This was in October - don't know when you are going to be docking in BCN - there will most likely be more ships in port during June/July/August. However, if you self-disembark, you should still be among the first off your ship and will be among the first early birds in line for a taxi. :)

Thanks! We're docking in Barcelona on May 19th, and it looks like we're the only ship in port that day, so hopefully that will help. We were also planning on doing self debarkation.
