I don't think it is possible to praise this tour of Toledo highly enough. Our guide - Javier Rodriguez - is, without doubt, one of the BEST tour guides we have ever had. His knowledge of the City is just enclopedic but presented in an accessible and witty manner that is as charming as it is informative. He took time always to ask what we wanted to see, giving us options so that we could decide, with his advice, no only where to visit, but also where to eat and what to see once the tour ended. His knowledge extended not only to the buildings, like the amazing Cathedral, but also to a detailled knowledge of the history and paintings that rivalled that of any Art Historian. Whilst in Toledo you must, for example, explore the works of "El Greco", an artist I was already aware of. But Javier's descriptions of these masterpieces gave us an insight and understand that I could not have imagined without this tour. Toledo is an amazing and fascinating town, with a complex history that takes a great deal of understanding. Javier presented all of this in a way that was intelligent, educated and informative - but easy to comprehend. And in perfect English! He is, just the perfect tour guide and really made our, all too brief, visit to Toledo just perfect.

This was an excellent tour and our guide, Natalia, was awesome!! I can’t say enough good words about her. She was very personable and knowledgeable about Toledo. She lives in the town so can answer many types of questions. We had lost our luggage and didn’t have all our warm clothes. We got cold walking around. She took us to a coffee shop and bought us hot drinks to warm us up. Old town Toledo is beautiful and fun to wander around in.

My husband and I booked a private 2 hour walking tour with Javi and let me tell you that was the best tour I've been on, ever. Javi is someone who you feel that you've known him forever after talking with him for a few minutes because of his warmth and friendliness. He also has a terrific sense of humor. He is from Toledo, and has a long family lineage to this ancient capital of Spain, which made the tour even more special. He has extensive knowledge of history, culture and art of Toledo ( and beyond -- he has master's degree in Japanese culture and history!), and gave us unique and in-depth insights that we would not have been able to glean otherwise. It was like a tour led by a history teacher. The cathedral was absolutely amazing and awe-inspiring, and we could've easily spent the whole day exploring just that. We then saw El Greco's masterpiece at St. Tome church. Javi gave us a lot of details of the incredibly painting and El Greco's life that we again would not have understood had it not been for his expert knowledge. He then took us around the city with a quick stop to an underground ancient well which was such a fun and unique experience. He even extended the tour so he could show us more sights. What I appreciated the most was Javi's love and deep appreciation for his hometown. I really wish that I'd planned to stay there longer and explore more because it's such a beautiful, special place. If you're looking for a tour that's informative, fun, and is tailored to your interests, look no further, this is it! I would give 10 stars if I could.
