Hi there! This is Rachel, I'm an officially licensed tour guide who works in Toledo, my hometown. I am not a blame taker. I was lucky to be born and raised in this. . . how to name it. . . " soul shaping training center". Yes, my friends, all through millennia, thousands of souls from different cultures, from Romans to Saracens to romantic poets, inhabited this rocky hill searching, how innocent, for a place to live a pleasant life without realizing such a place was the ideal scenery in the experience of tempering their souls and, for that reason, so beloved. Since I was a lovely callow teenager my life's been involved in the tourist market. I started working in a local craft factory and shop in Toledo when I was only 17 where I spent my funniest summertime hours being in contact with groups of tourists that would come from every corner of the world, tour managers, and local guides. It was then that I decided to become a guide. I moved to Madrid and majored in tourism, and afterward, I wandered the world for a few years searching for. . . who knows what. I didn't feel confident then to work as a guide, so I quit walking that road. After spending part of my youth working in jobs related to the tourism industry but not my cup of tea, the river of life brought me back to this shore again. So here I am enjoying the chance to showcase this world heritage site to the many visitors that hire my services and I am willing to do it for many more years of improvement since tourism is an evolving phenomenon that needs some adaptation to changes and new currents. The experience that a visitor to Toledo might be looking for needs, among many other ingredients, interaction with locals from my point of view, so I understand that the job of a guide is to serve as a bridge between you and the inhabitants of the city or town visited and providing a personal and cultivated interpretation of the heritage and history in case of touring a cultural vacation spot. All of that I can provide, and much more. . . as an expert, let me lead you to unique sites and places and memorable moments that you will treasure for a lifetime and will help you forge your soul in any way. Let me finally suggest what I think is the best way to get to know this destination. The city of Toledo should be walked at least twice. Once as a first approach and a second time to delve into the area of your interest. I am willing to welcome you here and am open to listening to your needs in case you want to customize a tailor-made experience. *I am an officially licensed guide by the regional government of Aragón autonomous community and officially licensed to guide inside the major monuments of Toledo, the ones run by Toledo's archbishopric. *I hold a degree in Tourism issued by the URJC (King Juan Carlos University) and I am currently majoring in journalism at the same institution, my alma mater, this study I balance with my work. At the moment I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Your Toledo tour itinerary

I will personally pick you up at the train station upon your arrival and drive you in my cute roadster to enjoy a delicious Spanish breakfast at one of my favourite spots. After breakfast, we’ll take a leisurely ride around the city's old town, stopping at various viewpoints to admire the stunning scenery and learn about the city’s rich history. Next, we’ll explore the old town's labyrinthine streets and visit some of the finest landmarks, including a synagogue, a few notable works by El Greco, and our main highlight—the cathedral. For lunch, we’ll dine together at one of my personally selected restaurants, where you can savour the local cuisine. You’ll then have some free time for shopping or simply wandering around. If there's a specific event happening in the city during your visit, I’ll suggest attending it. I will drive you back to the train Station, order private transportation back to Madrid, or you can stay and join me in a private solo half-day night tour, which you will truly enjoy.
