Hierve el Agua,Arbol Del Tule,Mitla,Mezcal and Teotitlan del valle

Seyedeh_S, Nov 2026

Vacation

It was a long day, but absolutely worth it! There were so many activities, and we truly enjoyed the entire experience. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area. Our tour guide, Uriel, was excellent! He spoke fluent English and made the experience even more enjoyable. 👍

Private Tour: Monte Albán, Hierve el Agua, Teotitlán and Mezcal

Cassandra_S, Nov 2026

Hassle Free Wax to Comfortably see Hierve el Agua and Monte Alban

Great way to spend the day seeing the countryside outside of the city while seeing the Hierve el Agua and Monte Alban. Yaneth was a balanced informative guide. She gave us plenty of background information, but gave us time to be quiet and talk within our group. We appreciated that there was no pressure to at the textile and mezcal workshops, just opportunities. We learned a lot and was able to purchase some great mezcal to help remember Oaxaca.

Monte Alban Guided Half Day Tour

Karen_S, Nov 2026

Great tour at Monte Alban

I have been on many tours and this was one of the best ever. Miguel was a fantastic guide - very knowledgeable, a great storyteller, engaging and interesting. The tour was about 2 hours long and we stopped often so that it wasn't tiring for those who might struggle with a bit of climbing. There was time at the end to explore more before meeting back at the bus. I highly recommend this tour. We could have wandered around on our own but we would not have learned much about the history.

Hierve el Agua 2.5 hours, Mitla, Tule, Rugs and Mezcal for a Day

Xochitl_A, Nov 2026

Definitely worth it!

Very comprehensive tour! Pavel was extremely knowledgeable and shared many facts about each location. Learned a lot, and walked a lot. Highly recommend. Be prepared with a swimsuit, sandals, and maybe a light towel for the pools as this was not mentioned on the things to bring.

The Mezcal Journey

Mike, Nov 2026

The ONLY Mezcal tour you should book.

I did this tour at the start of day of the dead in Oaxaca. So the group was large. And not for one second did this tour drop below a 4.9/5 rating was the experience I had. The main tour guide, I forget his name, from Oaxaca with family roots in the industry (from memory) but with a Californian accent, is AMAZING! Probably one of the best tour guides on the planet. Charismatic, extremely knowledgeable, completely engaging with his tour. Always checking there are no left unheard questions. Coached us through the entire experience seamlessly. We had endless amounts of tastings of the most amazing top tier Mezcal. And learnt everything there is to know. It was extremely welcoming and probably one of the best tours Ive been on in my life. And Ive travelled ALOT! Ive already told a out 10 new friend visiting Oaxaca, they HAVE to go on this tour. It’s a must.

Traditional Oaxaqueña Cooking with Grandma's Recipes

Charis_B, Nov 2026

I had a wonderful time...

I had a wonderful time cooking with Chef Adhey in her home and learning about some of the Oaxacan traditions! All of the food was delicious, the experience was informative and a lot of fun. Chef Adhey and her family were very warm and inviting. I’m looking forward to recreating some of the dishes at home to the best of my abilities! I’d highly recommend this class to anyone looking for an authentic Oaxacan food experience

Hierve el Agua Guided Full Day Tour in Oaxaca

LoriAnn_K, Oct 2026

Plan for a very long full...

Plan for a very long full day for this event. Herve el Agua is very beautiful in a serene setting with stunning views out across the valley. The hike can be challenging because of the steep descent (~1,000 stairs) but the way to the bottom of the formation is on secure steps and paths that are manageable. The cool mineral pools are very refreshing to swim on your return. Our guide was so knowledgeable and had very many cultural and archaeological insights.

Monte Alban Full Experience for 3 Hours with Admission Included

ANINI_D, Oct 2026

Excellent, highly qualified guide & tour!

We had a great experience with this tour company and guide! We arrived to a nice seating area with drink and snack while we waited, and the tour was top quality. Pavel was a great guide--patient, extremely informative, responsive to our environment (waited for us to sort out our needs with a little bit of rain, standing under trees for shade) and such a great speaker. We fully enjoyed the tour, which he led in 2 languages. When it went over time he didn't rush, just kept up with the full details. We would definitely do a tour with this company on our next visit to Oaxaca. Thank you!

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

Rebecca_B, Oct 2026

Amazing time

An amazing all encompassing experience! If you have limited time in Oaxaca, or if you’re there for a few days, you have to do this tour. It has a little bit of everything for everyone, and seeing the Mitla archaeological site was super cool. The pools at hierve del agua were a bit cool in October but still manageable. Kevin was also a really great tour guide. 10/10 would recommend!

Oaxacan Cooking Class with Local Chef

Kelsi_N, Sept 2026

Unforgettable experience

Chef Oswaldo had a sweet set up. The walk was short from the meet up place. He is knowledgeable about his culture and food. He was so patient with everyone. My 4 and 5 year old was able to join, and they did when they felt like it. It felt like cooking with family. He made everyone feel right at home. What we created, we cooked, and we ate. What a cool and unforgettable experience. My family said this was the best part about their trip to Oaxaca and I agree 100%

Hierve el Agua HALF DAY trip.

We had a fantastic...

We had a fantastic half-day trip to Hierve el Agua from Oaxaca! Our guide Luis was friendly and helpful from the very beginning, and he did a great job explaining the different sights and towns we passed along the drive. He and our naturalist guide were both extremely knowledgeable and made exploring Hierve el Agua even more interesting. Luis also gave us some great local food recommendations in Oaxaca, and one of the restaurants he suggested ended up being our favorite meal of the entire trip! Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and we’d highly recommend Luis and the tour.
