Beschreibung
Spend the Day of the Dead night at the Santa María Atzompa cemetery, among candles and marigolds, with a guide, transport and a buffet dinner.
On October 31 and November 1, Oaxaca's cemeteries fill with candles, marigolds and music: families spend the night beside their loved ones' graves to welcome them back. In Santa María Atzompa, a pottery village 15 minutes from the city, that vigil is lived with an intensity that is hard to forget.
This night experience takes you there with a local guide who explains, before you enter and as you walk among the graves, what each element means: the path of flowers, the copal incense, the pan de muerto, the portraits and the food offered to those who are gone. You will see families keeping vigil, a brass band playing among the tombs and the whole village turned into a candlelit celebration.
After the visit, the group heads to El Trapiche restaurant for a seasonal buffet dinner, then returns to downtown Oaxaca.
Before departure, anyone who wishes can have their face painted as a catrina or catrín at the meeting point (paid separately).
Departure from Independencia 312, downtown Oaxaca, at 7:00 p.m.; face painting starts at 6:30 p.m. Round-trip transport in an air-conditioned van, bilingual guide (Spanish/English) and dinner included. It runs only two nights a year, so seats are limited.
