What to expect
Your guide meets you at an agreed location and leads you on foot through narrow, atmospheric streets lined with convents, mosques-turned-churches, and former synagogues. You'll decide which interiors to enter based on your interests—the guide suggests options suited to your group (families, mobility considerations, cultural focus). Expect to pause frequently for stories about El Greco, medieval trade routes, or the intricate politics of coexistence. A short stop for coffee or the city's signature sweet is built in. The pace stays comfortable throughout.
Good to know
Entry fees to the Cathedral, San Tomé Church, and Santa María la Blanca are not included—pay directly at each entrance. Wheelchair-accessible routes available; strollers and service animals welcome. Public transport nearby if you need to skip distant landmarks. Allow extra time if visiting all three major churches.
