Cuéntame Toledo is a Cultural Association that emerged in 2012 with clear objectives: recover the historical rigor and respect for the city of Toledo in the dissemination of its Heritage, both among residents and visitors, and expand knowledge about Toledo with new lines of investigation and denounce attacks on the heritage suffered by the city. To meet the objectives, in addition to making routes, we are involved in the cultural promotion of the city with the publication of books, research, media collaborations and the direct financing of cultural projects such as Matadero-Lab, the Voix Vives Poetry Festival or the International Historic Fencing Meeting and the organization of free and inclusive routes for the National Hospital for Paraplegics, Down Madrid or AVAFIS.

Tour description

Toledo is the city that treasures the largest number of stories and legends in the world, with references even in the Thousand and One Nights. Each civilization has left behind it an immense set of hundreds of documented stories about the Millennial city, the Magic City or the Levitical city. Toledo is a mystery that we will unravel through its medieval neighborhoods where Templars, builders and stonemasons coexisted, with witches, canons and inquisitors, where we will learn the history of the mummies of Saint Andrew, the Callejon de los Muertos and the School of Translators. We will tell you the legends about the witches, the rogues, the poets, the monks and alchemists who made the City of the School of Translators and the great medieval sages famous. You can also complement it with any of our other tours. None of our routes repeat content or tour and our gurus are the best in Toledo. * It is suggested to give the guide at least € 10 / pax (this would be the guide's payment plus the expenses per platform) If you are a group of more than 5 people there is a fixed amount stipulated, which will be paid at the beginning of the tour, of 5 € / person. At the end of the tour you can complete your contribution with the amount you consider (an additional € 5 / person is recommended) * This tour only guarantees departure if a minimum group of 5 people is formed. We market it until the last moment, so it is possible that your tour will leave, even if you do not have enough reservations, or that it has to be canceled at the last minute. * Failure to attend in the time prior to the start of the tour (15 minutes) may not ensure the maintenance of the plaza, especially on busy days. * Mandatory use of masks

Estuvimos el 15 de agosto con Diego y la experiencia fue genial. Muy bien contadas las historias y muy ameno el recorrido. Lo recomendaremos a nuestros amigos para cuando visiten Toledo.

La experiencia no podía ser peor. Junto a mi pareja hemos realizado una gran cantidad de free tours a lo largo de 15 días por varias ciudades españolas y la peor, esta, sin duda alguna. Un trato nefasto por parte de la encargada de recibirnos antes de “empezar” la actividad. Habíamos reservado plaza porque sólo estaríamos una tarde en Toledo, y fuimos expresamente para poder asistir y conocer algo de la ciudad con ustedes. Resultado? Después de tres horas y media de camino, llegar corriendo a la hora puntual, nos dicen que no podremos hacerlo porque las plazas ya están llenas. Nuestra pregunta es, entonces para qué reservamos? Sinceramente, nunca nos hemos encontrado una situación así y una falta de profesionalidad tan grande como la de la señorita que nos atendió. Sin duda, la experiencia dejó huella, pero para mal.
