Angel was our awesome driver and guide. He told us lots of info about Toledo (and Madrid). He was on time and flexible - so we saw exactly what we wanted to see. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND him and the private trip from Madrid to Toledo.

No tour guide

GlennW_J, Oct 2024
It was really just a private taxi driver. No tour guide at Toledo. Could have taken the train for far less.

Everything about this...

siegelje, Aug 2024
Everything about this tour was subpar. The driver was one hour late and was not a guide, but a driver. He dropped us off at a couple of locations and we were on our own. I complained to Viator and received no response. I have used Viator in the past and will not use them again.

Response from Host, Aug 2024

Hi there! Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Sorry to hear about the issues you faced during your tour. This is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide. We are aware that you have reached out to Viator, but we would also like to address this matter directly. Please contact us at hello@welcomepickups.com with your booking details so we can investigate what went wrong and ensure it doesn’t happen again. Your satisfaction is very important to us, and we want to make things right. We appreciate your feedback and hope to have the opportunity to restore your faith in our services.

Terrible and miserable

MALA_S, Jul 2024
There was no pickup till 10 am and then the local tour operator stated that they had cancelled the pickup on Friday without any explanation. Now I am constantly communicating to get a refund back and I am being told to wait for 72 hours. I paid in advance for a pickup trusting it would be performed as committed which did not happen and now no refund and it has been 30 hours. Worst arrangement please do not waste your precious time on this. On top of it they ask me to write a review on how I liked the trip. Seriously!!

Response from Host, Jul 2024

Hi there! Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with your pickup and the subsequent delay in processing your refund. We understand how frustrating this situation must be and are committed to resolving it as quickly as possible. Please reach out to us at hello@welcomepickups.com with your booking details so we can assist you regarding this. Thank you for your time and feedback.

Good trip

Jennifer_B, Jul 2024
Our driver was knowledgeable and helpful. Toledo was a good day trip from Madrid. He offered to guide us around and sent us a list of recommended sights.

Just a driver

Anne_D, Sep 2023
This experience was misleading - at least to me - for what it was. Basically it was just a driver to and from Toledo from Madrid, yet it was over $400. Similar activities I have booked with Viator for the same money include a guided tour, there was no guide, no tour, just a drop off and pick up. Most disappointed. Will ask for a refund.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

Private car to Toledo

Debra_A, Jul 2023
Having a personal driver was a great experience! Picked up at our bnb and then gave us information to make our day in Toledo more interesting. We felt very well taken care of.

Highly Recommend our guide, Angel!!!

A Convenient Way to See Toledo from Madrid

Michael_G, May 2023
Our driver Jesus Dimas was helpful, friendly, and full of interesting tidbits of local culture. This excursion was a convenient way to see Toledo from Madrid with the insight of a guide but with complete freedom to choose when and where to go. The only improvement I would suggest would be to have water available for the ride there and back

A so so expireance

Johnny_L, Jan 2023
The trip was good but not worth the price. The taxi took us there shows us a few places but not worth the price.

Jose picked us up on time...

Donna_D, Jun 2022
Jose picked us up on time and did all possible to make our trip enjoyable. He was prompt, knowledgeable and fun. This was a half day trip, he provided excellent recommendations and directions He offered to give us extra time if wanted, we were not rushed. Interesting historical city, I highly recommend it!

The driver was also the...

Sujit_V, May 2022
The driver was also the guide who didn't show us around Toledo sights but gave brief in the car. English speaking guide was included in the trip.

No title

Jill_C, May 2022
Our driver, Jesus, was great because he gave us a tour of Toledo; however the description of the trip is misleading. We thought our driver would be our guide but found out once we started the trip we’d need to go on a self-guided trip of Toledo. Jesus was nice enough to walk us around and see the best spots in Toledo. Kudos to him.

Scenic town, not for the elder lies.

Victor_L, May 2022
Note, like one of my other reviews on private tours in Spain, this is a tour where the supplier rents out a taxi and it’s driver and you request where you can go. The city of Toledo is an old town and it’s meant for walking and exploring. I have my elderly parents with me, so this was definitely not a city to go. Aside from the little town square and the museum, there isn’t much for people with reduced mobility to do. The taxi and the driver is good. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating to our needs.

Best experience ever!

Margaret_R, Feb 2020
My guide was truly wonderful. He was helpful and had so much knowledge of the history of Toledo. It was literally one of the best things I have ever done!

Response from Host, Feb 2020
