Experience Details

On this tour you will have the opportunity to learn more about Oaxaca, where you will learn about sheep wool rugs, try traditional food like we Oaxacans do, and also learn the process of making and distilling artisanal Mezcal. The most interesting thing is that you will have unlimited Mezcal so you can try it whenever you want.

I have lived in Oaxaca all my life, I know every corner and detail that makes it unique. I am of indigenous blood who loves and is passionate about their work. All the people I collaborate with have a high knowledge about their own work, from the rugs, the mezcal and the food in the market.

Get to know the Oaxaca Valley and its most important sites with me, I promise you will have an incredible time.

What You’ll Experience

Teotitlan del Valle

We will live a phenomenal experience learning about wool carpets, from how it is painted with natural colors, to weaving on pedal looms. Here you can exercise your coordination because you will practice on a real loom to be able to make mats. You’ll also discover all the secrets of our ancestors in how they used plants, animals and barks to paint sheep wool and make their textiles.

1 hour 20 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Mercado Tlacolula

We will take a tour between the most emblematic aisles of the market of Tlacolula, it is magical to be able to live with the renters of the market. Here we will try different pre-Hispanic drinks and food (chapulines, dare you try them?). If your reservation is on a Sunday, we will visit the oldest tianguis in the valley, take a tour of the entire tianguis and see how people use this day to share, market and exchange their products.

30 minutesAdmission Ticket Free

Santiago Matatlan

And that is an Oaxacan experience without the delicious Mezcal. Here you will learn all about its distillation process to feel like a true master rocker, but above all, you will be able to try more than 15 different types of wild agaves. Cuixe, tobalá, Mexican, wild boar, among others. We will also visit the agave field so you can see how they are sown. After learning the whole process of mezcal and having tasted all the types of agave that are there, it is time for lunch, where we will taste a traditional Oaxacan food, which I am sure you will enjoy a lot, will be accompanied by flavor water of the day and guess what, more mezcal!
