Toledo Convent Tour: With Wine and Marzipan
Tasting
Tour-Übersicht
Once we leave the meeting point, we will discover the close relationship between the convents and the tradition of marzipan in Toledo. We will visit the Convent of the Comendadoras de Santiago, where we will see the cloister of the mona and its emblematic marzipan stall. It is a place where time seems to have stopped, and traditions are kept alive, especially in confectionery. Did you know that each marzipan here is molded by hand? Each one has a special dedication, like a small edible work of art.
The tour continues at the Convent of Santo Domingo el Real, where we admire the chapel and choir, which houses an impressive 14th century organ, and where we will learn about the history of the mummified body of the Infante Sancho de Castilla, "Sanchito", one of the convent's most unique curiosities.
To conclude our visit in the best way, we invite you to a tasting of marzipan accompanied by wine from the region. The pairing between marzipan, with its soft and delicate sweetness, and the wines of the land, especially the white and sweet ones, is a unique experience.

O guia era bastante bom, sabia muito sobre a história de Toledo. A sua pronúncia em inglês era um pouco peculiar; tinha um sotaque forte. Mas, mesmo assim, voltaria a participar numa visita guiada por ele.
Foi um passeio muito interessante e vimos coisas que o público não vê. A guia explicou tudo e respondeu a todas as nossas perguntas. Obrigado, María Angeles!
O guia, fenomenal, um 10 Mas a visita guiada, como descobrir o maçapão, É muito pobre, não ensina nada. Mas apesar da falta de conteúdo, o guia explicou outras coisas muito interessantes... Degustação: 0
