Convent Tour with Marzipan and Wine Tasting in Toledo

Great and very unique tour seeing several convents and trying local wine and marzipan at the end. Marian was our guide and she was very nice with lots of unique information and made the experience outstanding. I will say the parent tour company was pretty pushy about day of time changes to include sending me an all caps message about where I was when I was thirty seconds late due to being on another tour I booked with their company that I told them I was on being late. Other than that I enjoyed the tour.

Carlos our guide was incredible. He was both knowledgeable and sociable. The convent tour was very interesting. The wine tasting left much to be desired for. The problems were as follows- The Viator description said we would be tasting 3 wines. We only tasted one. We drank wine out of small plastic containers that resembled a specimen jar that might be used for a urinalysis, The Marizapan looked and tasted like it had been pulled off a shelf at a local Carrfours. It was inside of a plastic wrapper. Solutions- When doing ANY kind of wine tasting, glassware should be used. Either a small tasting glass or an appropriate wine glass. When you offer tasting of three types of wine customers should get three tasting of three types of wine. When tasting Marizapan, fresh Marizapan should be used. Perhaps as an added attraction the Dominican nuns or the Santiago nuns and the convents could provide these? I want to add that problems with tasting were no reflection upon Carlos as he was exceptional in his knowledge of wine

We really enjoyed the visit, the guide was very nice and attentive and explained the route very well It's worth it, pq being from Toledo we've seen things we didn't know

Very friendly guide. Unfortunately, tours are only offered in English or Spanish and not in German. That's only half of what we understood. But that was up to us and not the guide. I expected a little more on red wine and marzipan. Both the samples and perhaps different varieties to taste. The monastery tour was very interesting.

Highly recommended, a very pleasant visit, Adrian explained everything in detail, as well as close and fun, all out of 10 with this guide.

Our young guide Adrien was quite knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his home town, but the tour was thin on Nuns to marzipan to next to no wine... Not recommended.
