Taking the high speed train to save time going to Toledo is a wise choice. The old city is worth to go to see, in particular for us living in Asia which might not have “castle” and “old city” like this. The guide is good, knowledgeable and friendly. Taking good care throughout the trip and good time management.

It’s worth to visit Toledo, by taking high speed train, we have saved time and it’s comfortable in the hot summer. Although we had to walk about 20 minutes from the train station to the town, it’s still worth as the guide has shown us the best view to take pictures of Toledo. The guide Heidi is very nice and informative. It would be even better if we could spend a few more hours there.

The best way to visit Toledo, a city near Madrid. Traveling with a high-speed train is so comfortable, and has a bar inside! Our guide was very nice and explained all about the city and it's history and didn't make it boring at all. You can really feel the history while you walk arround the city. If you are thinking about making a tour near Madrid I really recommend this experience!
