Fantastic Toledo - The visit was spectacular, although it was scheduled to last 3 hours, we were there for 3 and a half hours. The guide was called Miriam and she is very professional, answering any questions that arose during the tour. In addition to the 3 interiors that the visit includes, it is highly recommended to visit the Jesuit church and climb the tower. This church can be visited on your own with the bracelet it gives you. An added value is that the group was small and the visit was bilingual since there were English people in the group. Phenomenal and highly recommended!!

Nice tour of Toledo - Things seemed a bit discombobulated at the beginning because our guide passed us off to another guide who spoke better English and after a while she passed us off to a third guide. However the two guides who showed us around were very nice and competent.

Nice tour - Interesting history of the Toledo monuments and synagogues. Unfortunately the tour started 45-50 minutes late, and due to more people than tour guides, a few tours combined with ours. Less personal than anticipated

Take a free walking tour instead in English - First if all I want to say that the guide was very nice and worked very hard to make this tour work well. The only reason this got 2 stars instead of 1 was the professionalism of the guide. The issue was the way it was organized. This tour is in both Spanish and English which does NOT work. It wasted everyone’s time and was very difficult to concentrate. The English version was more brief and sometimes hard to understand. For those taking the monument portion, there is a half hour break in between which was another time waster.

Unfair vendor - The tour guide was very nice. Our original tour was to be in English and last for 3 hours. I even emailed them to verify. The tour was “amended” and was turned into 2 separate tours. The first 1.5 hours were in English AND Spanish. We felt like we stood around listening to Spanish most of the time which was a waste since we didn’t understand. Then the “2nd” part where we were to visit 3 of the sites started with a repeat of what we had just listened too in the first part of the tour. Complete waste of time. We did get to see the 3 buildings but again in English and mostly Spanish. It was very disappointing. I contacted this vendor with NO response. I then tried for a refund through Viator and was denied. I booked 5 tours through Viator on a 12 day trip. This response is upsetting. It wasn’t a ton of $ but they clearly don’t care about their customers. There are other tours. Book with them instead!!
