What we will do on the Free Tour of Leon
Welcome to the No. 1 tour on Tripadvisor and the most popular in León. On this tour, you will explore all the essential places in the city in an engaging and professional way with a passionate local guide.
We will immerse ourselves in the essence of the city with the most bars per capita in all of Spain, where going out for tapas daily is a tradition, and you only pay for your drink while the tapa is free.
We will start our journey in the spiritual heart of León, Cathedral Square, where we will uncover the secrets of one of the most famous and admired Gothic cathedrals in the world.
Following in the footsteps of kings and pilgrims, we will arrive at the Basilica of San Isidoro to discover one of Spain’s most outstanding architectural complexes. You will understand why it is called the "Sistine Chapel of Romanesque Art."
Next, we will head to San Marcelo Square, where we will admire the majestic Casa Botines, a spectacular work by Gaudí.
We will continue marveling at the Palace of the Guzmanes, Calle Ancha, and the enigmatic Palace of the Count Luna, architectural gems filled with fascinating stories.
We will venture into the labyrinthine Barrio Húmedo, León’s most popular entertainment district and part of the city’s heart. We will conclude the guided tour at the Main Square, which has witnessed executions, celebrations, and markets since the 12th century.

-
What kind of tour should I expect?
We only collaborate with the best guides in León. You will visit the most important and representative places in León with a local guide who is passionate about their city and an expert at telling history in an engaging and interactive way.
-
What should I do if there is no availability when I want to go?
That means the tour is probably not available at that time. You can book at a different time if you can adjust your plans. If the spots are fully booked, you can check back later or the next day in case someone cancels and a spot opens up.
-
Can we make multiple separate bookings if we are a large group?
In that case, you should make a single booking for the entire group, committing to paying a minimum amount in advance. Since the free tour does not allow more than 6 people who know each other to join together.
If you make multiple separate bookings, we will receive a notification, and the guide will not allow anyone to participate on the day of the tour.
