Tour description

The best introduction to understand Oaxaca. During the tour we will talk about the pre-Hispanic past and its influence on the present. We will analyze the causes of social struggles and cultural resistance.

During the visit we will go to the following places:

  • Xochimilco neighborhood
  • Jalatlaco neighborhood
  • Ethnobotanical Garden
  • Institute of Graphic Arts
  • Temple of Santo Domingo
  • Macedonio Alcalá Theater
  • Cathedral
  • Plinth


We will also try a typical and refreshing drink made with cocoa and corn. We will talk about the different cultures that live in the state and about a very important graphic artist. We will finish near a market where you can try the tlayudas.
Do you dare to know Oaxaca through the eyes of a local?
