Amazing hestorical trip ever)) - El Alcazar overlooks the city. The old fortress originates from Roman times. Mezquita Cristo de la Luz, the square shaped of the mosque is still in pretty much the same state as when it was built, which is makes it quite special. Many thanks to the unforgettable guide Mrs. Clara ))

Toledo day trip - Great day in Toledo. This time flew by. Jorge was knowledgeable and friendly. I wish the tour had been English only. It was bi lingual and most spoke Spanish. It was hard to follow his English at times. Great lunch stop with an enormous and delicious lunch-:definitely opt for the meal. Lots of walking which was fine for us but this tour is not for those who aren’t in good physical shape.

Too much cathedral. - The half day tour spent way too long touring the cathedral at the expense of other interesting sites.

Toledo Spain Half Day Tour - Good deal for the price. The group was large however the ½ day went by quickly.
Transportation was excellent.
The tour guide Jorge, was knowledgeable, attentive and moved at a pace that was comfortable for all.
The bus driver was amazing with how he navigated both highways and small streets.
