Toledo a Must Do Day Trip from Madrid - This Tour Shapes a Great Visit! - Guide Sara was born and raised in Toledo! She brought so much knowledge of the city and great fun to the small group of 7. This tour was a perfect start to a day visit from Madrid and should cost more!! Thank you so much Sara for sharing your love of an incredible village! A must do.

Toledo's gems uncovered in a short tour - We enjoyed our tour very much. The pace was good, the guide was knowledgeable about the city's history and confident in her English. We particularly enjoyed the opportunity to visit the literary and cultural meeting place that had been restored by Toledo's architects. It was a real hidden gem.

Amazing and Informative Tour with Sara - I had an amazing experience with my tour guide, Sara. Sara is a native to Toledo and has a strong and passionate love for history. I learned so much on a personal level regarding the Spanish and their views on Toledo and of Queen Isabel. There's also a special surprise to a site that is only done with this tour which was phenomenal. You really get a deep look into what the architecture had been like over the past few centuries. I would 100% do this tour and ask to do it with Sara again. When you are in Toledo and want to learn about the Spanish history, do this tour.

Awesome from start to finish! - We were guided by Sara, she was AMAZING! Knowledgeable and fun throughout! Best tour we've done in Spain. Access to areas of Toledo we hadn't even thought we'd get to see! The fact that Sara was a Toledo local added depth and authenticity to the whole experience!!! Would highly recommend this tour group and Sara in particular!!!
Kiwis girls on tour!!

Value for money, worth to choose walking tour - Extraordinary value for money tour that gives you a good understanding of the history of Toledo. As you walk you see all the main attractions of the historical centre and then you are able to select the ones you want to visit by yourself, such as the cathedral or the El Greco museum.

A good introduction to Toledo - This was a very detailed tour just under 2 hours. Our guide Santiago was very passionate about Toledo, his hometown. The tour covered the important locations and Santiago shared extensive history about all of those. It is a lot of walking on cobbled stone streets which go uphill and downhill. We stopped over at some old shops understanding local cuizines and traditions.
Toledo is a small town and one could spent time just enjoying the vibes of a mediaval town. However there are very interesting things to see, my personal favourite being the Toledo Cathedral or Santa Iglesia.
The only challenge was to follow Santiago's strong Soanish accent. He also repeated many times his information, perhaps trying to make it clear, but it felt like going on and on. Overall the tour can be shortned and if the guide has better English language skills there would less of repetetive information. David was helpful and also gave us tips on what more we could see in Toledo.

Disapointing and Stressful - Sarah was engaging but did not wait for everyone to get to the place before she started talking. Myself and others missed a lot of what she was saying. She had arrived and that was all that mattered. Sarah kept saying things like"you could go into the Cathedral for €12 or you could have 3 beers and chips and olives.. I know which one I'd rather have. This type of comment she said often. It was a marathon to keep up with her. NOT everyone has come to Spain to drink beer. Some of us are interested in art and culture! At no time did she check to see if the group was gathered together. The 2nd to last stop she left me behind .I was left alone and lost. She and the group went under the house (in pic). I chose not to go underground due to the dust,confined space and steep stairs. I chose to wait for them at the top. They never surfaced. Sarah never said that they were going to walk out through to the street via the underground tunnel. I would have waited at the exit if I'd
known.So I was left. After 15 mins of sitting and wondering what to do. (I didn't know
where I was),another group came through so I tagged along to the end with them,even though they were a Spanish speaking tour...Not good enough! I ended in tears
