Excellent value - Our guide Antonio was amazing. This is an economical tour in that you get a lot for the cost of the ticket. We saw five distinct attractions. All were coordinated well.

Absolute Must Do in Oaxaca - This was a truly fantastic day. Everything we did was so fun and beautiful and the guide organized it very carefully so that we got to each location before it got busy. He was incredibly knowledgeable and seamlessly presented all the information and answered all our questions in both English and Spanish. You cannot come to Oaxaca without having this experience. So many amazing things all in one perfect day. And the drive through the countryside was gorgeous.

A Perfect Full-Day Oaxaca Experience - The meet up hotel is easy to find downtown. We left on time. The group was small and that made it more fun. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the locations and a really nice guy. We spent plenty of time at all the locations to enjoy what we were seeing. Absolutely loved each destination. 10/10 would highly recommend. Bring your swimsuit!

A complete day - This is the same as the other tour except that the entrance fees are included in this one. The day could have gone better had the guide exerted more effort. We could barely hear him, most of the time he was just mumbling to himself.

Fun and comprehensive tour, not too touristy - The tour was well managed and organized— stops were not too long nor too short. We were told we’d be back by 7pm but thankfully we were back by 5:30pm. I really liked Mitla and Teotitlan. Buy souvenirs and ice cream/juice at Mitla, the prices are pretty good. For Hierve el Agua, it’s easy to get lost and accidentally hike too far, I think it would’ve been better if the guide joined us all the way in. It’s very very hot this time of year so make sure you have water! Food at the buffet restaurant was around MXN198 and it tasted okay, but there are definitey better Mexican meals around.
