Hi, I'm Pepe. I'm an experienced tour guide, working as a freelancer for various local tour companies. I am very passionate about Oaxaca, its history and culture, and that's why I love doing city tours where I can introduce travellers to this wonderful city. I usually have my dog Akylez with me. He is trained and very well behaved. Together, we aim to provide you with a unique city tour experience.

Pepe didn't show up which was very disappointing. We waited for 20 minutes at the agreed upon location but he didn't call or send any messages.

Friendly, knowledgeable, generous and curious, Pepe is not just an excellent guide, but an absolute pleasure to spend a few hours with. Whereas other tours could feel like a stale monologue, Pepe gives a fresh, conversational overview of local history, culture, architecture and cuisine. He knew great spots to sample traditional food... and mezcal. Would highly recommend a tour with Pepe as a unique way to begin your Oaxaca city visit.

The tour with Pepe was really amazing! We were only two people but he still showed up and thus gave us a private tour. He showed us so many nice places in Oaxaca (not the classical touristy stops but hidden gems). He told us a lot about the city, its history and its people. We also stopped at a few places to try out the food they offered. We ended the tour with a mezcal tasting in the shops (all free). 100% recommendation to do the tour with Pepe!
