Itinerary

  • Casco Historico de Toledo

    The old town of Toledo was declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage City since 1986. On our tour, we will walk along streets and squares full of history, demonstrating the sheer wealth and splendor of the old capital of Spain, the city commonly known as “the City of Three Cultures "

    1 hour 5 minutes

  • Jewish Quarter of Toledo

    The oldest written documents that we have from Jews in Toledo are from the fourth century, in the Roman era, although it is possible that they established themselves in the city before then. On our tour, we will walk through the narrow streets of the old Jewish quarter, visiting the main monuments and underground archaeological remains that made this Jewish quarter one of the most important in Europe.

    1 hour

  • El Transito Synagogue and Sephardic Museum

    El Tránsito Synagogue, also known as the Synagogue of Samuel Leví, was built after the King Peter I’s treasurer ordered its construction in 1355. Although the building of new synagogues was not allowed at that time, approving its construction was King Peter I’s way of thanking the Jewish community for supporting him in the war against his brother Enrique de Trastámara. Inside the synagogue, we can admire the incredible prayer room decorated with rich plasterwork and the National Museum of Sephardic Culture.

    30 minutes

  • Synagogue of Saint Mary the White

    The Synagogue of Santa María la Blanca, was one of the eleven synagogues that stood in Toledo until the end of the fourteenth century. This is one of the oldest in Europe and was built at the end of the twelfth century or beginning of the thirteenth century in Mudejar style. The oriental style can also be appreciated in the sobriety of the exterior decoration, which is the complete opposite of the beautiful adornment found in its interior.

Jewish History Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Our tour guide Sonia was the best. So knowledgeable and engaging. We learned so much about the history of the area and the Jewish people. We could not have asked for better. Highly recommend.

Ask for Sonia!

Published on Dec, 2024

Sonia is an excellent guide! She cheerfully accommodated an hour train delay arriving in Toledo and gave us the full three hour tour. Sonia has deep knowledge and insight. Covered the two synagogues and cathedral, plus a special spot that not all guides can access. Even offered restaurant suggestions for our next stop.

Great guide of Toledo Jewish quarter

Published on Nov, 2024

Sonia was a wonderful guide. She taught us so much about the history of the Jewish community in Toledo as well as the city itself and the Muslim and Catholic communities. She was very clear in her explanations and pointed out things we would not have identified in our own. Highly recommend!!

Six stars!!

Our experience with Javi was above & beyond! I am traveling with my husband and our 23 year old daughter. Javi engaged each of us. We all agree that Javi was the best guide on our entire visit to Spain!! Javi is passionate, articulate, and deeply knowledgeable about Toledo and its Jewish history. His understanding of Judaism blew our minds! As a 3rd generation native, Javi’s love of Toledo is evident. He is able to make sense of its long and complicated history.

Best tour ever!

Published on Nov, 2024

What a great time we had! Sonia was exceptionally educated on the history of the sites we visited, and thoroughly explained every detail. This was a must do tour with Sonia?
