Great experience visiting Monte Alban, Oaxaca's Artisanal Route (black clay + alebrijes), and Ex-Nun Convent.

Cathya_L, Jan 2026

Great experience with Victor our guide who helped make it very memorable with his storytelling and charisma. We enjoyed the bilingual (Spanish/English) experience and the fact that he was a local that was very well versed in the culture and stories from the places we visited. Everywhere we went people knew him and said hello. I loved getting to experience Monte Alban, the Artisanal Route and the ex-nun convent. We had a good amount of time in each place and also had the opportunity to shop and support the artisans. Really loved being able to immerse myself in a full day of Oaxacan culture learning about the Zapotecos and the modern day Oaxacans that make this a beautiful vibrant place full of tradition. The tour included pickup/dropoff at our Airbnb in centro Oaxaca. If you have an INE you pay Mexican price for Monte Alban (entry not included in price of tour) and ex-nun convent church but make sure to bring it physically to claim discount.
