Private hire to León's old town and cathedral from León

León Cathedral from León

León cathedral, the Pulchra Leonina, is famous for its stained glass and stands in the old town next to the Barrio Húmedo, where many of the surrounding streets are pedestrianised. The car drops visitors at the nearest accessible point.

How to get there

León

Internal trips in León province are long and often through the mountains: from Villablino to the capital, or from El Bierzo to León, means crossing passes. The most requested trips are from the towns to the León or El Bierzo hospitals, to León station and to Camino de Santiago stages, where public transport does not reach or runs only a few times a day.

When demand peaks

• Holy Week in León (Easter week): León's Holy Week, of international tourist interest, fills the old town with processions day and night and closes many central streets. It is best to set the pickup outside the procession routes and book holiday departures early.
• San Froilán (early October): The San Froilán fiestas, honouring the diocese's patron saint, close León's festive calendar in early October, with traditional parades and many people from across the province in the city.
• The French Way in León (spring to autumn, especially summer): The French Way crosses the province through Sahagún, León, Astorga and Ponferrada, and in season many pilgrims need to reach the start of a stage, skip a section or get home from the station.
