The guide was very personable and professional. She had a rich knowledge of history, local tradition, and cultural awareness. The tour kept to a full schedule which included free time and a wonderful wine tasting. The wine tasting was well done and the tapas complimented the varietals offered. The Tempranillo and Syrah-Tempranillo were excellent! Very good trip and great value!

This was an amazing trip. The Guide was friendly and so informative. He gave us 2 hours to visit Toledo on our own and for lunch, and was very grateful. For me, the best part was the winery, the landscapes were so beautiful and the wines… the best wine I never tasted, I am not exaggerating, really it was. I truly recommend this tour to my friends.

Thanks to our guide Majed, a great person with lots of knowledge about Toledo and its history, and Finca Loranque winery owner, Lorenzo, who is also a great person and taugh us a lot about the wine making process, and of course, their wines taste amazing.
