Toledo Private Tour from Madrid
Description
Get to know the ancient city of Toledo, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, on a 5- or 8-hour day trip from Madrid!

Tours take place by minibus or minivan (according to the number of passengers), but if you want to spend longer in the city, select the option to travel by express train ticket from Madrid instead.

Itinerary
Toledo, the WORLD HERITAGE CITY is a special place for its mix of ARAB, JEWISH, CHRISTIAN and even Romans and Visigoths elements. Toledo was the city that inspired the Greco in S. XVI and remains practically the same state then. Toledo is a natural fortress in the center of the Iberian Peninsula. It was the logical choice for the capital of Spain, but in 1560 lost its political status, which was acquired by Madrid.

Our driver was so fun to be along and showed us all the best spots, Thanks so much Imad! We had a great time in Toledo
PLEASE don't use this tour. The money DIDN'T worth at all. I BOOKED private tour full day Toledo from Madrid by train. I SPENT 665 euros for paying raxi from Toledo do panoramic spot 36 euros and Cathedral admission 16 euros. The train tickets booked 5 days before my tour starts and of course the found the only availability timing 9.17 an abd back 17.11 coach 2 dirty train no plugs. SO I met our guide in the trainstation I dont judge her job she spend with us more time. On WhatsApp told mevshe did 5 hrs instead 3 so I Asked I can pay your extra. TAXI was taking from trainstation up to the panoramic spot we were on 4 included Tour guide.. I gave up I Left only 2 my guests doing the tour with her. Taxi for 4 not comfortable enough. AFTER the tour i found out they paid for taxi and Admissions. SAVED DONT BOOK THIS EXPERIENCE. You can find better experience in Toledo. ONLY GOOD THING customer service at least they replayed to me. SO ONCE AGAIN 665 EUROS PLUS 36 PLUS 16 .. MORE THAN 700 No comment. 3 hrs tour guided when they know need more time.
Our tour guide, Amor, and our driver, David, couldn’t have been better. Amor was very knowledgeable and shared that with enthusiasm. She gave us time to explore on various stops and David was the perfect driver: polite, kind, and in sync with Amor. Thank you to both for making our day on Toledo memorable.
We absolutely loved this trip. The tour guide was amazing, and the car service was really good. The tour guide is really knowledgeable and there is a jewelry store stop in the tour with jewelers making jewelry in the store. Also, the jewelry was really affordable and make for great keepsakes and gifts. Again, just a great tour.
I had no idea of the history Toledo before booking this trip. Such an important part of the history Spain. The city was awe inspiring, and our guide was a font of knowledge! Toledo is beautiful and the architecture amazing. I'm so glad we made Toledo part of our trip.
Very good enjoyable and friendly guide with good knowledge. we liked the guide and the tour which took place in a very good atmosphere.
Our guide was very knowledgeable and the tour was nice. However, her company did not give her our arrival train schedule correctly and she was late because of that. Her company also did not send us her contact information and how to meet prior to the trip. It was frustrating when we arrived and did not see the guide, and had no way to contact her either. At the end, I contacted the tour provider via viator and they responded. I think there is room for improvement regarding communication on both sides. Overall, the guide was very nice and the tour was well planned.
Loved how it was customized to our interests. An extremely knowledgeable local guide. Best experience in Spain.
Thank you very much for your words, we are glad you enjoyed your visit, We will communicate this to our guide.
