I am a person who really likes talking, telling, being with people, and especially with those ones who want to know my city. Although I have been living in several cities, Toledo is the one that impresses me the most and the one that has a lot of thing to show: history, culture, traditions, legends. . . I don't want to forget Lisbon, the city where I was born, but I've been living in Toledo for a long time. Toledo really is the city I've spent most of my life in, and I'm in love with it. I have almost always been working in front of people, in public establishments, sales, hotels, wine tourism, and during the last years, explaining the city of Toledo. My studies have been focused on tourism, both Accommodation and Guiding. Because of my origin, my native language is Portuguese, and at the same level is my Spanish; but for years I've been working in English, and lately in French. And, although I have made visits to organized groups, much better is a private visit, since we can do it "a la carte", and we can adapt the visit to the needs that will come during the visit. We are not all the same; so the same visits cannot always be repeated. And every day is a different experience and visit. My training is constant, since both the City Council and the main monuments of Toledo are constantly organizing improvement courses, continuous training, with the corresponding qualifications. I really like personal contact; so with these visits we can have that direct contact, and I can transmit so many details of the history of Toledo. I wait for you! I am Superior Technician on Guiding, Information and Touristic Attendance. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Overview of your Toledo tour

Toledo is a great city that has always impressed its visitors. And its inhabitants too! During all the time I have lived in Toledo, I learn to enjoy more and more the visit to its main highlights and I like to show them and explain them to my acquaintances, friends and visitors who come to know the city. I would like to show you in this tour the three points that refer to the three cultures that lived together in this city for eight centuries. But we could go as well to see the espectacular views of Toledo from the other side of the river that protects the old town. We will pass by the most important places, squares, streets, and also by the mosque of the tenth century, a synagogue of the twelfth century and the Primate Cathedral of Spain.

Felipe was friendly and engaging . Because of his charitable work in the community, many people greeted him as we walked. Full of knowledge of the history of the city, region and country, Took time to highlight the architecture and design of many buildings. Highly recommend him. Would definitely tour with Felipe again!

Filipe was an excellent guide. He met us at the train station and had arranged a taxi to take us to the old town. Along the way he thoroughly explained the highlights of what we were seeing After reaching the Old Town he took us on a fabulous walking tour. He has a vast knowledge of Toledo history. Being from the US we appreciated the fact that he spoke clearly and we were able to understand all his valuable information.
