The best tour of Toledo! - This was by far one of the highlights of our trip to Spain. Enrique gave a comprehensive tour of Toledo inside and out. It stated with incredible views of Toledo from outside the city. We then entered the city and the Jewish Quarter where Enrique provided an in-depth history of Toledo and the Jewish Quarter while talking us into some beautiful historical buildings and synagogues while showing us incredible artifacts. He also took us into a basement to open to the general public where Jews sought refuge to pray. I cannot say enough how phenomenal Enrique was as a tour guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable and thorough as well as kind-hearted. When my daughter was cold he took off his jacket and gave it to her. I highly recommend this tour and you MUST ask for Enrique!

Highly recommend! Favorite tour of our trip - I highly recommend this tour! We went to Toledo with no idea of what to expect, but our guide Alejandro gave us an incredible tour through the old city. He grew up in Toledo and knew the city so well that we learned much more than we expected. He also knew when the tourist crowds would hit various spots so he tailored it so it felt like we had a private tour of the city. This company took great care in making this a great experience for us.

Great experience. - What an amazing tour, Enrique was just excellent. He lives and was born in Toledo, and clearly knows the town, the people and the history. He met us at the train, had a cab take us to the city overlook, and then to the back gate/entrance. He spent a good 3+ hours with us, at our pace, what a wonderful experience. Highly recommend! We were prepared as it was raining off and on, but great experience.

wonderful experience - We booked the Shalom Toledo tour, and it exceeded all our expectations. In just over 3 hours, which flew by, we were able to see the synagogues, the basement of an old Jewish house which is marvelous, and we also tried the famous Toledo marzipan, which is delightful. We would definitely book it again without hesitation
