Absolutely worth it! - The tour was super educational for us, and our guide, Jana, did an amazing job catering it towards everybody's varied interests. I'm also glad we did it in the morning as it definitely got really hot in the afternoon and would've been less enjoyable then.

super guide but a disappointing tour - Jana was a super guide, friendly, empathetic, with a lot of passion, and knowledge about art and history, has shown us interesting places; However, the tour was much, much shorter than the description on the Viator site and for which we booked this tour; also the end point (Palau de la Musica) was not correct; apparently at the "Itinerary" things were promised that cannot be delivered in practice at all, totally misleading text and therefore disappointing tour!
