Top Toledo Walking Tours

Tour guides are friendly, knowledgeable and make you feel welcome through a historical journey in Toledo. Sonia did not give a series of lectures but instead, she used her impressive knowledge of Spain history to make meaningful cultural connections with us. She gets an A+ as a teacher.

Toledo is a beautiful city and, as our guide Laura told us, is the soul of Spain. Laura is from Toledo and she took us to all the key points of interest, including the Cathedral, the Jewish quarter and the only (original) mosque which is now a church. Along the way she gave us the history of Toledo so we could learn about its rich culture and heritage. Laura knows everyone on Toledo and they kept stopping to say Hello to her. She kept pace with us and accommodated our requests to do some shopping along with the sightseeing. All in all, a wonderful experience with a great guide! I would highly recommend this tour!

Our driver, Javier, was prompt, very easy to talk with and an incredibly safe driver. Our guide Dani (Daniel), was amazing! He is the 4th generation of his family living in Toledo and you can tell how proud he is of his hometown. We stopped across the river to get panoramic views of the city and the walls before starting our walking tour inside. Dani gave us so much great information during an easy-going and very enjoyable walk around Toledo. We covered the city and never felt rushed or overdone. The pace, history, and conversation was all wonderful. Dani was even kind enough to make a lunch reservation for us at Manjera for when the tour ended. We had amazing food inside the stone cellar of a 16th century home. After lunch we shopped a little and then texted Javi to come meet us and take us back to Madrid. We booked the 8-hour tour - 2 hours of driving time, 3 hour walking tour and up to 3 hours of free time for lunch and shopping. It was a very warm day so we ended up leaving after only 2 hours of free time. It was so nice to be able to leave when we were ready rather than wait for an hour in the heat to get on a bus. We really enjoyed our day and absolutely recommend it to anyone wanting got visit Toledo from Madrid.

This tour was such a delight for our family of four with two teenagers. Toledo, in general, far exceeded our expectations. This tour was a wonderful way to learn about the city and see hidden gems. The guide was very knowledgeable and kept us in the shade most of the time. Even with the very hot weather, it was enjoyable.

Our guide Stephi was phenomenal and the history of the city fascinated us. Before we met our guide, we had to make our way to the main Square from the local train station. There are lots of steps and a lot of elevation to cover to get into town. We arrived at 9:30 in the morning so the weather was still cool enough to make the walk. I would not have wanted to do it later in the day when it was warmer. Plenty of taxis available and buses too to avoid the walk.

Having a personal guide for three hours was a treat while we toured the historical parts of Toledo. Our guide was very well versed in the history of the ancient city. We learned a lot and found the information and sites to be fascinating . There were other places to see but we had reached our saturation point( it was a very hot day) and felt satisfied by all we saw and learned. I would have liked to spend more time looking at El Greco’s art, if I could. . On the day of the tour our guide helped me through an odd situation regarding the actual time for the cathedral tour. I received entry tickets an hour before it was open. I bought them from the actual cathedral office website so the tour agency had nothing to do with the confusion. Our guide took me to see their ticket seller at the Cathedral and he made sure we could get inside evening even though it was an hour plus later than our timed tour. He checked the validity of the tickets and they were authentic and paid for. Why a time was on the sight is the mystery. There was frustration on my part with inadequate communications with the service department of the tour agency. I found the examination of the personally planned tour to be vague. It took too long for me to wrap my might around what our tour would include and tried to get in touch with their customer service agent before our trip, but what I heard back was not satisfactory. I was trying to figure out logistics and our tour choices. It was the day before the date I heard directly from our guide and she further explained and answered my questions. She was very professional and I appreciated it. It was the customer service department’s lack of communication that caused confusion with conflicting information and did not provide specific answers as I requested on several occasions. The private tour was more expensive( twice the amount of the group tour and I wanted to make sure we understood what we would see and learn. In the end I was pleased with the tour but the aggravation before hand could have been eliminated quickly yet it was not. As it was, the personalized aspect of the tour never happened. I tried to gain an understanding of our offerings so I could actually select what we saw. The guide selected what we did and it turned out fine . A general tour of three areas in the city took up our three hour allotment.

Sonia was delightful and a wealth of knowledge. The city is an amazing labyrinth of narrow, winding streets with history throughout, and she provided a fantastic overview for my wife and I in our limited amount of time. We would highly recommend her.

Sagry was a wonderful, knowledgeable and lovely tour guide. We visited Toledo on January 1st where the main sites are closed which Sagry had reached out to me in advance to suggest that we change our date but unfortunately we were not able to because of our travel schedule. Despite the closures and very cold weather, Sagry did a great job explaining the Jewish history and broader Toledo history to us and brought it to life. She was accommodating and an absolute pleasure to spend a few hours with.
