Itinerary

  • Zona Arqueologica de Monte Alban

    Surely one of the most beautiful pre-Hispanic site in Mexico, the superb ruins of Monte Alban overlook the Oaxaca Valley, at an altitude of over 2,000 meters. With its many pyramids, tombs, temples and sculptures, the site requires approximately 3 hours to be visited properly. There is even has a museum on site that will show you a retrospective and detailed explanations of the place.

    Welcome to Santa María Atzompa, a charming village renowned for its a rich tradition of pottery. Today, we'll visit the workshop, run by a talented local. As we step into the workshop, you'll immediately notice the earthy aroma of clay and the vibrant colors of finished pieces. Ana María, a master artisan, greets us warmly. She shares that her passion for pottery began in childhood, inspired by her parents who were also artisans. Finally, we visit the display area, showcasing a stunning array of pottery. From functional kitchenware to intricate decorative pieces, each item tells a story of cultural heritage and artistic innovation. The work is not only cherished locally but also sought after by collectors worldwide Before we leave, don't forget to browse the shop for a unique souvenir. Each piece you purchase supports the local community and helps preserve this beautiful craft.

  • San Antonio Arrazola (Pass By)

    Welcome to Arrazola, the vibrant heart of alebrije craftsmanship! Today, we'll explore a workshop where these fantastical creatures come to life. As we enter the workshop, the air is filled with the scent of freshly carved wood and the sight of colorful paints. Our host, a skilled artisan, greets us warmly and begins by explaining the origins of alebrijes. These whimsical creatures, often a blend of various animals, are carved from copal wood, a material native to the region. Our tour starts with the selection of the wood. The artisan shows us how they choose pieces of copal based on their shape and size, envisioning the creature that will emerge. Using machetes and knives, they skillfully carve the wood, allowing the natural form to guide their creativity. The artisan shares stories of how this tradition has been passed down through generations, preserving the cultural heritage of the community.

Best Tour of our Trip

Published on Apr, 2024

My 10-year-old son and I took many tours this trip, but this was by far the best. Rosario, our guide, and Alberto, our driver were amazing and so friendly and accommodating. We learned so much and enjoyed their company. They were on time and the van was clean, comfortable, and well air conditioned. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Mte. Albán with Rosaria

Published on Apr, 2024

Rosario and Alberto, the driver, were fabulous. Knowledgeable and engaged. Were my husband and I interested in another private tour, I would not hesitate to hire them again

The most knowledgable, interesting, enthusiastic guide.

Published on Feb, 2024

What makes Rosario an outstanding guide is her curiosity about and enthusiasm for the materials she presents. She keeps up with the latest research by going to conferences and reading. Her tour was responsive to our interests and as my friend and I are both historians we asked many, many questions. Rosario's commentary seemed like she was sharing her interest and deep knowledge with friends. I will take other Rosario tours if I can.
