Unique experience - A lovely experience! We are delighted and excited to be back. The tour is a bit long (we start at 8:00 AM and finish at about 3:00 PM) but the spaces and activities are so magical that we don’t even feel the time pass. At every activity we were made to feel welcome. We laugh, we cry and we are fascinated with art, and we literally take a piece from Oaxaca. We had the opportunity to do the tour with Fer, took care of everything so that we could live the experience to the fullest and without worries. Eternally grateful.
