Synagogues, mosques and churches stand together in Toledo's historic quarter, a testament to the medieval Spanish city's diverse history. The four towers of The Alcazar, a fortress built in 1085, dominate the skyline. Toledo and its surrounding countryside inspired El Greco, and his paintings are on display in many places around the city, including the museum that bears his name.

We did the Toledo-Segovia day tour and it was fantastic! Our guide Alfonso was so knowledgeable, professional, and friendly, he truly made the experience unforgettable. The bus was great, the schedule ran on-time throughout the day, and we were able to see all the best sites in the two cities while learning about their history. I would 100% book another tour with Amigo Tours in the future and would recommend this company to everyone!

Javier is the ultimate guide — very personable, knowledgeable and such a delight. We visited every important destination in the beautiful city of Toledo with Javier explaining its history with so much knowledge and passion. The highlight was the visit to the beautiful Cathedral with Its stunning altar and treasure throve of art work and El Greco paintings. We could never forget El Greco’s “The Burial of the Count of Orgaz” housed at the Iglesia de Santo Tome. Javier’s very interesting explanation of the masterpiece’s background made our experience — three sisters alone in the viewing room — even more precious. Thank you, Javier, you are a brilliant guide!

Overall a good tour. Juan was a very enthusiastic and friendly guide. We did the entire three hour tour. One thing that would be good to know is that the tour is kind of split into two parts. The first part you walk around and look at monuments of Toledo. The second part of the group splits and those who do not purchase the full tour leave and then you visit the rest of the monuments and go inside. One of the most impressive things on the tour is The Burial of Conde Orgaz by the famous painter El Greco! Toledo has so much to offer and it’s a city that should not be missed!

The experience was fantastic. It was the best birthday present I could have done to my Mother on her 60th birthday. It was a surprise until we arrived to the place and saw the hot air ballons just starting to be blowed in front of the sunrise. Amaizing picture which still on my mind. Segovia is probably one of the best picture spots to have this experience. I would recommend it to anyone.
