Free walking tours in Oaxaca

Our guide gave us a ton of great information and took us to some great street art.

Really enjoyed the tour.

We had an amazing experience on this food tour! Our guide was very knowledgeable and adaptive to our interests. It was a great evening - highly recommend!

Absolutely faultless, loved it from start to finish, way exceeded my expectations. Can’t recommend this highly enough!!

Jessica hit all the highlights for the history of Oaxaca. We had breaks every few minutes as we toured the area. We did walk through the zocalo without much information. That would be one thing I would have liked.

Discovered the diverse history and the great variety of tastes of this region at the same time. Highly recommended

We learned a lot about different artists and the symbolism included in various murals as well as the process for posting and retaining murals. Friday, our guide, was quite knowledgeable and informative and wove in information of Oaxaca culture and history into his descriptions of the murals.

Great experience. Learned so much more about the murals than just wandering around and looking at them ourselves. Dolce was awesome.

We had a lovely introductory walk in Oaxaca, full of history, recommendations, and insight into modern Oaxacan culture.

Wir haben die Food Tour mit Arturo gemacht und waren begeistert. Man probiert viel regionales essen: schokolade, Eis, Tacos usw. Außerdem haben wir einen super schönen Stadtteil von Oaxaca kennengelernt. Eine der besten Touren, die wir bisher gemacht haben!

So knowledgeable, friendly and enthusiastic! Had the best walking tour ever!

Fantastic tour of the murals and lively conversation with our guide. A lot was learned in the 2 hour tour, from Mexican customs and culture, to underground resistance groups throughout Oaxaca's history. I would happily take it again. My only recommendation would to make it an afternoon tour. We were shooting into the sun, not the best angle to capture this great art work.

Abel was a great guide! I left the tour feeling more knowledgeable and connected to the beautiful city of Oaxaca!

Amazing tour, delivious food, very fun. Lupita was great guide and gave us great insights into the Mexican and Oaxacan culture!

I joined a walking tour in Oaxaca and every minute was really enjoyable. Noel is a super knowledgeable guide who makes history feel like story time (the fun kind!😉). He sprinkled in cool facts, great stories, and awesome local recommendations. The Zapotec calendar reading was such a fun surprise at the end. I would absolutely recommend! Cheers😊

GuruWalk was a great idea and we got luck enough to have Braulio, a native Oaxacan, guiding the tour! It was a really nice to be immersed in the culture while walking through the street of Oaxaca and getting to appreciate the art, the architecture, and the wonderful spirit of the people. I would recommend this walking tour at the beginning of your visit, so you can get acquainted with the land!

It started raining so we actually finished the tour a little early. This was my second time on the same tour, (yes I enjoyed the first one so much that I came back a few months later to do it again with friends) but the guide was different and the group was much larger. I was a bit concerned that it wouldn't be as good the second time around, but Maria was amazing and told us sfabulous stories about the artists and the subjects of. their artwork. She is very well informed about the background to the Mexican art scene, as she is a graduate in Art History from the celebrated Palacio de Bellas Artes in CDMX. I was VERY impressed with the extent of her knowledge, her ability to communicate ideas and somehow keep such a large group hanging on to her every word. Super tour - don't miss it.

Insightful, dynamic, and truly memorable. Don’t miss it!

He was excellent and very knowledgeable

El guía fue muy amable y muy bien informado, el tour fue en inglés y lo hablaba muy bien. Lo felicito aunque de momento se me haya olvidado su nombre.

We enjoyed the walk and the tour was amazing! Gave us an incentive to search out even more information in the neighborhood after the tour. Guide, Jetse, was friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

We enjoyed the walk and the street art was amazing. Gave us an incentive to search out even more street art in the neighborhood after the tour. Guide was friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.

Fantastic guide very knowledgeable good English. Food tour was varied and considered allergies. Great opportunity to visit and learn about different foods in the markets

We had a fantastic food tour with Lupita as our guide. She was very friendly and communicative, and thanks to the small group size, the experience felt personal and relaxed. She introduced us to a wide variety of places and an impressive range of dishes we wouldn’t have found on our own. There was also plenty of time to chat about many different topics, which made the tour even more enjoyable. Highly recommended!

Perfect way to start your stay in Oaxaca. Carlos, out guide, was very informative, lots of background knowledge, humble and with a great sense of humour.
