Our guide was excellent, knowledgeable, and kept a good pace. He knew a lot about the site and its history

Carlos picked us up from our Airbnb right on time and took us to meet our guide Xenon at Monte Alban. He started the tour with a prayer in the Zapotec language asking for permission from the ancestors for our visit. He was really passionate about the history of the site and enhanced his descriptions with illustrations and photos on his iPad and in a magazine. We all learned a lot from him. Highly recommend a guided tour of this place to bring the ruins to life! When the tour was over we spent some quality time getting to know Carlos while part of our group waited for the others to finish shopping.
