Oaxaca's Dreamlike Honeymoon 

Welcome to Oaxaca!

Upon your arrival, we will greet you at the airport and transfer you to your hotel. Following check-in, prepare for a captivating city tour that provides a glimpse into the heart of this vibrant city. Explore its colonial architecture and rich history, strolling through lively streets and interacting with the friendly locals. Immerse yourself in the local culture and uncover the heritage of the Zapotecas. Highlights of the tour include visits to the Santo Domingo ex-convent, Alcalá Street (a renowned corridor with galleries, restaurants, and local stores), Oaxaca’s cathedral, the famous market, and various other noteworthy sites.

Monte Albán, Arrazola, Convent, and San Bartolo Coyotepec  

Following breakfast, embark on a visit to what was once the largest city of the Zapotecs: Monte Albán. This archaeological site is strategically positioned atop a mountain in the center of the Central Valleys, providing panoramic views of all its surroundings. Next, explore Arrazola, a community renowned for its production of alebrijes—wood-carved sculptures intricately adorned with vibrant colors, which are often considered representations of various mythical creatures.

 

Later, enjoy a leisurely lunch at a local restaurant, savoring delicious regional cuisine. Conclude your day with a transfer to Coyotepec, where you'll gain insights into the craft of creating artworks from black clay—a well-known Oaxacan artisanal tradition. Afterward, return to your hotel to relax and enjoy dinner at your leisure.

Tule, Teotitlán, Mitla, Hierve el Agua, and a Mezcal Factory

Embark on a captivating journey beginning with a visit to El Árbol del Tule, a legendary cypress with over 2000 years of history. The next stop takes you to Teotitlán del Valle, renowned internationally for its exquisite wool rug production. Continue your adventure to the enchanting town of Mitla, once known as the "City of the Dead," intricately built by the Mixtecs.

 

The exploration doesn't end here; proceed to the surreal landscape of Hierve el Agua, where petrified waterfalls crafted by time from calcium carbonate create a breathtaking scene. As the day unfolds, return to Oaxaca City and visit a Mezcal factory. Immerse yourself in the fascinating process of crafting this elixir of the Gods, from agave cutting to distillation, culminating in a delightful tasting experience. The remainder of the evening is yours to either unwind at the hotel or venture into the city for a delightful dinner.

Taste the Flavors of Oaxaca & Admire a Natural Wonder

Oaxaca is called the gastronomic capital of Mexico for a reason! Explore rich flavors from the meticulous cheese crafting to San Andrés Huayapam's sensory delights like tejate (a beverage made from corn and cocoa) and tamales made with mole wrapped in banana leaves. Conclude in Tlacolula with pan de cazuela and hot chocolate, unveiling Oaxaca's mouthwatering traditions.

 

As evening falls, discover San José del Pacífico's enchanting beauty, surrounded by nature's wonders. Immerse yourself in clouds, cross a suspended bridge at dusk, and experience temazcales to warm a bit. For the thrill-seekers, two swings in the foggy forest await at an elevation of 2,400 meters. With each sway, you can connect with nature, feel the air against your skin, and marvel at a sea of clouds.
