★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 5,280 reviews · 6 - 9 hours · from $40Our pick

Review of the Madrid to Toledo bus tour, with guided walks, cathedral options, free time, sword workshop, timing, value, and practical tips.

“A good experience, but a bit annoying that we had to wait for four people, two of whom didn’t turn up. My suggestion would be to move the meeting point to the square, rather than the bus park. Guide was informative and had a good manner. rameiro was also very comfortable in English and had some good tips after the tour.”

“Andrea, our tour guide, made it an informative and enjoyable day at Toledo. The day was well paced and had more than enough time to explore Toledo and have a proper meal. If you have a lot of time in the area, suggest splitting the day trips to nearby towns which we opted for. The bus was comfortable, was not full could be due to being the off peak season.”
