Description
Discover Oaxaca in a day: Monte Albán, paint your alebrije, learn about natural dyes, and experience the maguey with an artisanal mezcal tasting.
Experience Oaxaca authentically on a tour packed with culture and hands-on experiences. Start by exploring Monte Albán, the ancient Zapotec capital and one of Mexico's most impressive archaeological sites. Continue to an artisan workshop where you can paint your own copal wood alebrije, a souvenir full of color and symbolism.
Then, learn the secrets of natural dyes in Teotitlán del Valle: cochineal, indigo, and the local plants that bring Zapotec textiles to life. Enjoy a home-cooked meal with traditional flavors before heading to Matatlán, the birthplace of mezcal, where you'll tour the maguey crops, learn about their life cycle, and finish with a tasting of artisanal mezcals.
A full day to discover, create, and savor the best of Oaxaca.
