Worth every peso

We had an amazing day with Felix from Oaxaca Conmigo Tours visiting local businesses and markets to sample Oaxacan cuisine, experience local life, and see how their Zapotecan rugs are produced from start to finish. Each stop on this tour was carefully chosen to avoid tourist traps and connect with the local community. We even had a hands-on lesson in roasting cacao and grinding it for mole in the kitchen of a local family. We ate SO much and learned even more. I would give this tour 10 stars if ...read more

A truly special, wonderful tour

Felix gave us a fantastic tour! His enthusiasm for and knowledge of Zapotec culture made the experience very rich - not just about the food we tried (all delicious) but the sights we saw and the people we met along the way. It really is a full-day tour: come prepared to enjoy many different flavors and also see beautiful artistry as you visit a weaver, a mezcal maker, and a chocolate and mole expert. Wear casual clothing, comfortable shoes, and a hat as part of the tour will be outdoors. Felix s...read more

Amazing glimpse of Oaxaca’s food and culture

Six out of five stars! Or seven! Our tour guide Iveth took really good care of us and made sure met our and her expectations. Each place we visited was very traditonal and the food was amazing! Our highlight was the mole tasting and chocolate making with Doña Dalia. She’s a treasure! Not only did she share her food with us, but she also shared many stories of her childhood and her culture. Definitely a must if you’re in Oaxaca.

Better than we could have imagined!!! Don’t let the price scare you…it was definitely worth it.

Antonia was great to book with. He was responsive and in doing some research, the booking experience was completely safe as they are affiliated with Viator and Trip Advisor. It was only my daughter (19 years old ) and I and Felix was right on time with our pick up at our hotel. He had cold water in a cooler waiting for us. To keep the praise short, EVERY stop we made was an experience to remember. We speak weak Spanish but Felix spoke very good English and interpreted things when it was ne...read more

Highly recommend!

This was an amazing experience. Felix was an awesome guide and everything we did was wonderfully fun. The food was great, but seeing the traditional wool dyeing and weaving techniques was a true highlight, something we'll never forget.
