My name is Laura and I am a passionate official tour guide and I try to show visitors the essence of my place, the unique and memorable places.
I've been working full time as a tour guide for over 8 years and I hope I can continue for many more. I am also a sworn translator and interpreter by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and I have been travelling around the world to meet new people, to learn about new cultures and to be sure I can speak English in a bilingual way.
Toledo holds a special place in my heart, it is my hometown. This is the place that made me who I am today and made me feel what I feel today when I go to work, when I walk around its narrow streets (where I used to play), around the Jewish quarter (where my grandma used to live and the place she had to be hidden in the Civil War), around the convent area (that quiet and fascinating area that surprises me every single day), when I cross the two stunning bridges we have and when I realize that to go to work is a pleasure.
There is an indescribable charm about this town. That is why I am a proud official local guide of the beautiful City of the Three Cultures. This is the reason why I love to show visitors the important legacy we have in form of churches, synagogues and mosques.
Let me show you the charm of Toledo. I am a very open minded person and I adapt and customize the tour to your specific needs and to anything you may be interested in. It will be a pleasure.
Warm regards from the beautiful Toledo.
I can be waiting for you at the train station, if you come by train.
If you come by a private car, I can be waiting for you at Bisagra Gate.
On Monday, the synagogue El Tránsito is closed and on Sunday mornings, the cathedral is closed.
There are many other sites we can visit, but we should take this into account.
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!
