We did the half day tour of Toledo - an amazing city. The bus stops at a spot where you can take unbelievable photos. Our guide was alternating between Spanish and English during the trip and seemed to speak more in Spanish than in English and she was a bit difficult to understand

Morning tour of Madrid was on a bus entirely. You couldn't see anything and it was a bilingual tour so half spanish, half english, made it difficult to tune in and out to what guide was saying. We left the tour early it was awful. Afternoon in Toledo could have been interesting but our same guide from the Madrid AM tour was less than enthusiastic, she couldn't wait for the day to end, that was obvious.

Our guide was superb - but we had to speedwalk through the sights to fit it all in. By the last stop, everyone was tired. And much of the walking is uphill. Be sure to wear comfortable shoes. The lunch was definitely worth doing as well - delicious food in an historic house. After much walking in the heat, it was nice to sit in a beautiful old house and be waited on.

We did the full day tour but did not get lunch. Instead we did lunch on our own at a restaurant near the meeting point at the bridge - Museeo de Productos. The best food we’ve had in Spain! _br/_ Our guide gave the tour in both English and Spanish speaking one sentence in each language at a time. I enjoyed the way she did the tour and it actually helped me brush up on my Spanish. Toledo is beautiful and not too far from Madrid. I would recommended this tour.

Elisa is a terrific guide. She is knowledgeable, fun, friendly, patient. She walks slowly enough for everyone to keep up. She lets us stop to take photos.

laid back tour which covered the main sights. I was really unwell on this day but the way the tour was run made it so easy for me to follow along. Highly recommend.

A enjoyable trip, with a great deal of history, but at times a bit too rushed for a half-day trip.

Tour was good, tour guide was just ok. Not too friendly, very curt when answering questions. It could have been better.

This was an outstanding tour. This is my 3rd tour by Julia Tours and you cannot go wrong. Wear comfortable shoes because there is a lot of walking on this tour. Excellent information and lunch as well. We chose the upgraded lunch and were not disappointed. The only thing I would change is the last hour after lunch was a visit to a knife factory which also made gold jewelry. We were also told that we would be able to buy authentic marizapan. I don't know why but I expected to see it made. But instead there were about 20 boxes of it in the gift shop of the knife/jewelry factory for sale. In all, I would highly recommend this tour but suggest they eliminate this last retail portion.

Tour was really nice, they took us around the city, without being rushed through it. It was really enjoyable. The city is quite hilly and not recomended for people who have difficulties walking long distances. The food offered was honestly not so good, but as could be expected with large groups of people. Very nice. Recomended.

Enjoyed the tour with my family of 5 3 boys and highly recommend the FULL DAY experience as there is a lot of tourists in Toledo trying to see the same as you and cant imagine doing much in half a day. The bus was clean, comfortable and rather new, and the guide knowledgeable and to the point.

Hard to rate. Arriving at Julia travel they said my tour was cancelled as I was the only one. Said I could do another day or do their all-day tour. I didnt have the time. They then moved me to another company for half-day. Okay except I had to pay an extra 10 to go into cathedral. Pouring rain but guide good. Id recommend a couple of days seeing Toledo

Worth it. Our guide was knowledgeable and attentive. I’d do it again.

The half day tour is perfect if you don't have enough time. Our guide was great- bilingual and shared the most interesting facts about what we were seeing. The visit to the Church of St. Tomas and the El Greco painting were the absolute best part for me. Tour departs on time, the bus was big and clean and the overall schedule was just right. Toledo was beautiful! A must see.

This tour was amazing!

Toledo half day should be fine with tour group but they cover fast. Trip on your own may be cheaper but too hard to cover by walk. So, go with full day. English coverage is good.
