My husband and I had a private walking tour with Alex on December 22, 2017. He was amazing!! He showed us the sights and gave us an in-depth understanding of the city's history. We really enjoyed the cathedral visit and going to the roof - spectacular sight and scenery. This tour is a great way to see Leon by foot. Alex, you spoiled us!!

We had a private walking of Leon. Our guide was very competent and made sure we saw the sights we were particularly interested in. He kept us in the shade as much as possible literally, it was 36 degrees out! A walking tour of Leon is really the way to go, most of the interesting things are well within walking distance of each other and you get a nice feel for the lay of the land on foot. Would for sure recommend this tour!
