Tour description

Our Free Tour of the city begins in the Plaza de Catedral, where we will talk about the beautiful stained glass windows that run through the Gothic temple , about architects and restorations , about its stages. A Gothic temple from the middle of the 13th century, built on the old Roman baths.

We will continue our route through the old town of León, where the famous Barrio Húmedo awaits us , to show us its streets full of bars and nightlife venues, where you can enjoy its varied tapas (potatoes, cured meat, black pudding, garlic, mincemeat, croquettes, sausage, etc.), being a free gift from the Leonese hoteliers with each drink.

And in the middle of the medieval heart are the squares of San Martín and Mayor , where we will talk about traditional markets, craft guilds, the old Jewish quarter and the most traditional gastronomy (typical dishes, DO León wines, craft beer and local vermouth). ). A few meters away we will stop, in the Plaza de los Condes de Luna (old Mercado de Abastos and remains of the old palace), stories of the Kingdom of León, legends and mysteries await you.


Our favorite place is, without a doubt, the Royal Basilica of San Isidoro , where the pilgrims who were doing the Camino de Santiago cross the Puerta del Perdón , to obtain the corresponding indulgences and the forgiveness of sins in the Jubilee year.

In the "Barrio de moda", we will tell you where we Leonese go to have a few beers in the evening , always accompanied by those elaborate tapas, which make the Romántico an essential area to wander around.

To finish, we will arrive at the Plaza de San Marcelo (patron saint of León), where we will talk about the Old Town Hall, the Roman Centurion Church, Antonio Gaudí's Casa Botines and the Palacio de los Guzmanes (current provincial council).
