What To Expect
Our first stop is at the majestic archaeological site of Monte Alban.
Imagine walking along the same paths where at a period of history the Zapotecs walked through, exploring ancient pyramids, and observing the greatness of a civilization that flourished on these lands centuries ago.
We will then go to the home of craftsmen in Arrazola, where creativity comes to life in the form of Alebrijes. Learn how these talented artisans give life to these colorful handmade wooden figures. We will stop at a Oaxacan buffet to taste authentic local dishes.
Our last stop will be at San Bartolo Coyotepec, where black pottery takes shape by the hands of master craftsmen. Discover the secrets of this ancestral tradition while you observe the creation process.
Our tour ends around 5:00 p.m., when you are dropped off at your hotel's lobby or Airbnb with unforgettable memories and an in-depth understanding of the rich culture and history of Oaxaca.
