What are people saying about Oaxaca

Explore Hierve el Agua, Mitla, Tule, Textile and Mezcal for a day

Toby_L, Jun 2026

This was an amazing...

This was an amazing experience. Despite the rain, the tour ran very smoothly and each location had the perfect amount of time. Our guide Pavel was very knowledgeable and passionate and made it a great learning experience. We especially appreciated Pavel’s detailed and thorough explanations at Mitla, which really enchanted our experience. The buffet lunch was excellent and greatly exceeded our expectations! Our driver Erick was great as well!

Traditional Oaxaca Cooking Class with Local Chef

Hillary_E, Jun 2026

The experience was hands...

The experience was hands on and educational. We all prepared the meal together and ate together as a group. Oswaldo was so knowledgeable and obviously passionate about his craft and culture. As group classes do, everyone started out a bit shy but we ended up laughing and having a great time eating and chatting. It was a lot of food but we could take extra home with us. I would definitely recommend this class.

Essence Zapoteca Monte Albán, Barro Negro and Alebrijes for a day.

Philong_T, Jun 2026

Went on the tour with...

Went on the tour with Pavel as our guide. He was very informative and detailed before arriving at each site and throughout the visit at Monte Alban, describing essentially every building and the story behind them. The alebrije and black pottery workshop visits were good quick stops to learn about their creations, and there was no pressure to buy anything.

Monte Alban Guided Half Day Tour

Linda_G, Jun 2026

You will meet in center...

You will meet in center of Oaxaca and travel in bus to Monte Albán. Our guide (Miguel) did such a good job of making the ruins come to life by providing more context and even highlighting additional artifacts with use of magazines. We would never have gotten as much from our tour without Miguel's expertise. We really enjoyed his approach! We had about 45min of "free time" after the guided tour finished to look at the ruins in closer detail and visit the indoor museum. Go early because it will be hot! Bring water. There is a small restaurant along with the museum for drinks and snacks. We then traveled back to the city center on the bus.

AUTHENTIC OAXACA CULTURAL FOOD TOUR, eat like a local.

Andrew_P, May 2026

The best tour we did in all of Mexico, special thanks to our guide!

Would give this 7 stars if I could! We absolutely loved this experience, wow! I thought 6-7 hours might be too much time but I could have gone another 7 hours! We loved the pre-Hispanic history provided by our guide throughout our walking tour of Oaxaca. We felt like we saw the majority of old Oaxaca on our tour and saw so many things we would have otherwise missed. This includes the food! I am not usually one to try different foods but this was so much fun and so, so tasty. Ours favorite were the black mole tamales which would have been impossible to find if not for this tour - we didn’t see them anywhere else in Oaxaca on our trip, and the variety of Oaxacan fruits, including a chewable stick which was SO cool, and spicy!!! We loved the mezcals, the fruits, the pre-Hispanic atols and conversation with our guide. We were lucky enough to be the only group on the day we booked and if a private tour isn’t already available, I’d recommend this operator to create a private tour, because it felt so much more personable and intimidate with only the 3 of us. Highly recommend if you love food and history! We wouldn’t have tried 95% of the foods we tried on this tour had it not been for the tour. We also wouldn’t have seen 70% of the sites and markets if we didn’t book this tour. I’ll be recommending this tour to everyone. I loved meeting the owners of every restaurant/market we stopped at, too.

Monte Alban, Ancestral Mezcal, Alebrijes and Black Mud Tour

DereneHinchliff, May 2026

Fabulous tour

This tour far exceeded expectations. Our guide, Michelle, was so knowledgeable and just a delight. We learned so much about each of our stops - Monte Alban, the mezcal ancestral, the Alebrijes and the pottery. It was a tour for 6 and the other couple on our tour was also delightful. A wonderful day all around.

Hierve el Agua Guided Full Day Tour in Oaxaca

Ailish_D, May 2026

A must-do tour for first time visitors to Oaxaca!

This is a jam-packed but very well organised tour which includes several must-do activites in Oaxaca. We elected to go straight to the pools at Hierve del Agua rather than doing the hike and I would highly recommend this because it was so quiet when we got there that we almost had the pools to ourselves! The mezcal tasting was incredible (I think we were given 11 different types of Mezcal to try) and we especially loved our guided tour of Mitla and the info the guide shared about the Tule tree/town of Tule. We didn’t catch the name of our guide unfortunately but he was incredible and did a great job managing an at times rather difficult tour group. We were a little sad in the morning to have missed out on some of his guided commentary on the bus ride to the waterfalls (he stopped after someone interrupted him asking to get off the bus). We understood why he didn’t continue as most of the group were visibly disengaged, but we had been enjoying hearing about the local indigenous history of the area!

Hierve el Agua, Tule Tree, Mitla and Mezcal Distillery Tour

Eduardo_C, May 2026

Miguel and Auto are awesome guides!

Miguel was our tour guide, he was great! We went to a few spots outside of Oaxaca and learned a lot. We spent just the right amount of each spot so I didn't get bored. we also got some mezcal to pre game, everything was great! Auto was our driver and he did great job driving and made us feel safe. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone, and if your worried about the hike like I was done be, I opted out for the hike and still had a great time sight seeing.

The Mezcal Journey

Sam_H, Apr 2026

10/10 would recommend

Leyda was an excellent guide who was very knowledgeable and passionate about Mezcal and what it means to Oaxaca. My wife and I left with a deeper appreciation for the amount of effort it takes to produce them and how skilled mezcaleros are. The food, mezcales, tour, and general views were incredible. Would strongly recommend this experience - or following Leyda when she opens her own tour and experiences!

Dolphin & Whale Watching in Puerto Escondido

Dominic_S, Apr 2026

Amazing trip seeing lots of wildlife

We were very lucky and saw Manta-rays, Turtles, Spotted Dolphins, White-bellied Dolphins, Blue Whales, and Killer Whale. Our pilot was fantastic, and would definitely recommend using the company (just know that the animals are seasonal and wild, so you’ll not always see the same animals on each trip)

Tour to Copalitilla Magical Waterfalls from Huatulco with admission included

Wally_S, Apr 2026

Beautiful waterfalls

We had a great experience. The waterfalls are beautiful and you can swimm there to cool off from the heat. I highly recommend to bring water shoes. We didn't bring them but you can buy them there. Our guide Genaro was fantastic. He is very knowledgeable and tells a lot of stories about Oaxaca both in English and Spanish. I highly recommend to take the tour with him. The food, different kind of tratitional mexican food, typical for Oaxaca, was delicious! And believe me, you are going to be very hungry after the tour from all the walking and swimming. After all we would take the tour again and highly recommend it. Thanks Genaro!
