About the tour
The first stop on the guided tour will be the beautiful city of Toledo, declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO. One of the oldest cities in Europe with building architectural styles blending, including Arabic, Gothic, Mudéjar, Renaissance and Baroque.
The city itself is like an unbounded museum that hosts some of Spain’s key monuments. Toledo is also known as the city of three cultures, as for a long period Christians, Muslims and Jews lived there together in peace within its walls.
It’s old Gothic and Renaissance architecture, and the narrow streets and alleys, along with the well-preserved state, led to its classification as a national monument and as a World Heritage site by UNESCO.
Discover the magnificent Cathedral of Toledo during the guided tour and wonder at the beauty enclosed within its walls. Also learn about the history and the arts of this unique cathedral.
You will delight in the best views of the city from the bell tower of Los Jeronimos Church. The tour of Toledo will end revealing one of Toledo’s hidden secrets. You will enter a monastery of cloistered nuns, where you will taste typical Toledan marzipan.
