Overview of your Madrid tour
The first thing that surprises the traveler upon arriving to this UNESCO SITE is the immense history that surrounds us. How is this possible? Toledo. The Millennial City. The Medieval City. The capital of the Kingdom of Spain before Madrid. The city of the Three Cultures. The second nucleus of European Catholic power for centuries. Toledo, the place for nobility intrigues and the forge of the finest steel swords. Witness to the purest Flemish Gothic through its unique cathedral. The city that welcomed and hosted El Greco. The city perched over the granite hill surrounded by the Tagus River. Toledo is all this and much more. An off-the-beaten-track destination, but a must-visit for all those who come to Madrid, eager to understand the history of Spain beyond the purely touristic basics. To discover the reason and many other surprises, I will be delighted to take you to this medieval marvel that astonishes the visitor and sends them back home with the phrase on their lips: "how glad I am that we came".
Your Madrid tour itinerary
Each of my tours is carefully crafted to align with your preferences. I will promote open communication, fostering a collaborative exchange of ideas to craft the ideal itinerary for the visit. You'll be picked up at your hotel by private car. High speed train is also a great experience. Although this pricing is for the car, both options are possible. Just let me know Once there, I suggest a panoramic tour with the car: The best way to orient yourself and understand the medieval defenses. There aren't many cities that allow you to traverse 2000 years of history and 3 religions through their 3 temples: 1. The Toledo Cathedral: One of the most incredible examples of Gothic architecture in one of Christendom's grandest cathedrals. 2. Santa María La Blanca Synagogue. 3. Ancient Mosque and now El Salvador Church, where you can contemplate the marvelous masterpiece by El Greco. We'll stroll through the old town. Don't lose sight of me. It's a true labyrinth. Otherwise Ill have to leave a trail of breadcrumbs
