Great Tour. Would definitely recommend!
Published on Jan, 2021
Hugo was an amazing tour guide. He was able to share his vast knowledge about the history of Monte Alban with our group. We also enjoyed learning about some of the areas famous handicrafts. I had a great time and as a solo traveler I feel like I was able to make some new friends.
Phenomenal!!

Trip to Monte Alban, included stops at a historic church ruin, and a traditional food. While each stop was excellent in itself, the tour guide made this a wonderful experience. He is both knowledgeable and passionate about Oaxaca history and answered our endless question with enthusiasm.
