Hi Everyone! I’d like to introduce myself. My name is Leticia I am a local who has a passion for her city, Toledo. Along the streets of one of the largest historic cities in Europe, I spent my childhood running and playing at the same time as discovering new corners and new treasures. My curiosity about the city encouraged me to study for a degree in Art History at the University of Castilla La Mancha, from which I graduated in 2002. Following my graduation, I began working with an archeologist team here in Toledo. My fascination grew as I learned to understand and appreciate the archeological excavations and how and why this city is shaped in such an amazing and monumental mix of styles. To improve my English, I spent a few years living in London during which time I worked in temporary art exhibitions and for the British Museum in the audio guides section and the bookshop. Missing the Spanish sunshine, my family and I decided to return to Spain and continue my career as a tour guide here, in Toledo. In the last year, I have been studying for my official licence as a tour guide in Toledo which allows me to show you all the fascinating architecture and treasures I was so pleased to discover as a child. We can walk around the city following different periods and architectural styles and I can adapt the tour to suit all your needs and wishes. Remember, Toledo has more than 20 official monuments from the Roman period until the twentieth century. It is well known as the city of the three cultures and still has in existence religious buildings from the three main religions, Christian, Muslim, and Jewish, since medieval times. It will be my pleasure to be your guide on a delightful tour of this lovely city.

My degree in Art History has given me the skills to explain to you the amazing and singular nature of this period when Toledo became known as the city of the Three Cultures. As a local guide, I will take you through the fascinating buildings of these main religions, which lived together and created a unique art form: the Mudejar. At the same time, we will go deeper into the story of the main characters in this period and the legends that describe time as not as easy as it may appear. Come and enjoy me on a special tour around Toledo.

Panoramic and Walking tour. We'll need a car for the panoramic part of the tour. It can be yours (if there is room for me inside to comment on the views) or a taxi, which can cost from 12 to 20 € per trip (not per person), depending on how long we stop for pictures, around 30 min. If you prefer to walk we can visit some sightseeing spots on foot but not as beautiful and impressive as by car.
4 Paseo de la Rosa, Toledo, Castilla-La Mancha, 45006, Spain
