Discover the magical city of Toledo on a day trip from Madrid. Toledo, the capital of both the province of the same name and the Autonomous Community of Castilla-La Mancha, is located 529 meters above sea level in the Castilian meseta (plateau), practically in the center of the Iberian Peninsula and just 70 kilometers (43 miles) south of Madrid. The monumental city center sits atop a craggy rock, almost entirely encircled by the Tagus River. UNESCO declared Toledo a World Heritage city in recognition of its uniqueness and its history as a host to Christian, Islamic, and Hebrew cultures, which is reflected in its splendid architecture. It's almost impossible to walk its streets without stumbling upon a Gothic or Mudejar church, an ancient mosque, a Romanesque or Visigothic structure, a former synagogue, or a Renaissance palace.

You will be transferred from your hotel to Madrid train station to board the high-speed train to Toledo. Upon arrival, you’ll meet our expert local Toledo guide who will first take you to tour the Cigarrales area for magnificent panoramic views of Toledo city across the Tagus River.

Your guide will lead you on a walking tour exploring the old city while you learn about the three cultures that lived side by side during the Middle Ages and see the most important sights in Toledo, including Zocodover Square, the Alcazar of Toledo, Santo Tome Church, Transito Synagogue, Santa Maria La Blanca, and the Cathedral (entrance included).

Enjoy free time for lunch and sightseeing at your leisure before returning to Madrid by high-speed train, where you will be met by your driver and transferred back to your hotel.

You only need to let your Totally Spain agent know and we can include a daytrip to Toledo from Madrid as part of your very own custom private tour in Spain.
