Angel is a very nice guide who showed us the best of Toledo. Thank you fro the tour !
Enjoyed our day in Toledo. Our guide Miguel was informative and friendly. Highly recommend this tour.
It was the worst tour I have taken in my numerous travels over the past few years. We had a one hour bus ride from Madrid and arrived for the tour at about 11:15. The guide walked us relentlessly for the next three hours over the cobblestone hills of Toledo with only two ten minute toilet breaks, one near the very end. She told us we would have free time at 2:30 until 4:30 when we would go back down to the bus parking area. The day was hot and the sun shone brightly. Participants were not free to get nourishment until just after 3:00 when we had to walk uphill a considerable distance to reach the square with cafes (eating spots were available along the way) and where we would meet as a group to return to Madrid. Further, in the US, the tour website claimed it was an English only tour. According to another participant, in France (where she is from), the website advertised the tour as French speaking only. Also, the tour was presented as “small”. We had about 15 people, which I and others did not consider small, and only four of us were English speakers. The tour guide began her explanations in French, then in an exasperated tone would summarize in English. She had a defensive posture about questions and disregarded indications that folks would like to stop for a light lunch. In truth, the tour should have included such a meal. Our hiking was arduous and dehydrating. Not everyone had water and about half the group were seniors. We certainly saw the highlights of Toledo and the guide was knowledgeable, although I would say her remarks were somewhat disjointed, not providing a flowing story about what we were seeing in the context of the history and growth changes of Toledo. I would not recommend this particular tour to anyone.

We had a wonderful family trip to Toledo. A big thank you to Lola, who looked after us all day with such warmth and energy. She made the drive enjoyable and shared fascinating stories about the city’s history and culture. We’re also very grateful to Carlos, our guide at the cathedral and El Greco Museum. He is extremely knowledgeable and passionate, and answered all our questions with great patience and insight. Both Lola and Carlos went above and beyond, even helping us find a great lunch spot on a busy Saturday. We felt well taken care of the entire day and truly enjoyed every moment!

We were on Trip with Fatima from Madrid who told us about the first part of the excursion of the outer part of the city of Toledo. History and culture of the different civilizations that have existed over the centuries. The second part we spent with Elena in the synagogue and in the cathedral where art and history meet. We spent a beautiful sunny day in their company. We recommend the tour. Both speak good Italian and are super nice and friendly. Greetings 👋
