What people are saying about Church of Santo Tomé

The entire tour was amazing! Jesus, our tour guide, did a remarkable job showing us the sites with excitement and passion, not to mention his English was perfect. I honestly wish that we had two days in Toledo because it’s that interesting. Know before you go: it’s best to train in, the parking situation is horrible. The wristbands they provide you give you all-day repeat access. The courtyard outside the cathedral is where you’ll meet the guide, just look for a white umbrella. Also, if you did drive in, go to Mirador. It’s the perfect picturesque location to see all of Toledo.

The tour was really good and our guide was excellent! She gave us a detailed tour of three important sights in Toledo and pointed out several others. She gave a particularly informative talk about the Jewish neighbourhood and it’s history. I highly recommend this tour.

Our guide Josefina was very detailed and knowledgeable about the city and all the monument sites. Took time to explain historical context and meaning. Would definitely not have gotten as much out of visiting the sites if we had gone alone.

Exactly as advertised. Great trip, easy book, comfortable bus. Thank you for a great experience

Excellent tour. The guide was very professional. I just loved the tour !
