First timers in Oaxaca. Great Tour! - The tour was great. Our tour guide was friendly, charming, funny, and informative. He spoke English and Spanish fluently while he described the history of the sites we visited, the culture of oaxaca, and answered every question we had. The trip was worth every penny! I learned a lot and had a lot of fun.

All great except restaurant - The guide Miguel was fantastic. He was super nice and very attentive and incredibly knowledgeable. We went to the rug Village. That was my favorite part It was very interesting being shown all the different steps it takes to make a rug The restaurant was absolutely horrible. When we got there, it was packed with other tour buses, and some of the most basic foods like rice and moly were out The food was mediocre at best and the bathrooms were filthy with long lines. I wish there had been an option to not go to the restaurant because it also was expensive and not included in tour price Tule tree was magnificent. The water was great. The mezcal place was wonder. And mostly the guide was terrific.

Great tour with spot on pacing and exceptional guide - This was a fantastic tour which was a highlight of our trip to Mexico across a variety of states. Adriel was our guide for the day and he was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and open. He really made the day what it was, and is obviously a complete natural at his job. The 12 hours flew by, in no small part due to Adriel's engaging conversations and observations about everything from the landscape, to social justice in the region and to Zapotec culture, but also due to our excellent driver, Edgar, who covered some serious miles. At all of the sites we visited we had ample time to enjoy different activities. We left the tour knowing a lot more about Oaxaca State and its incredibly rich history and culture, and how its customs and beliefs are expressed today (and with some great tips on distinguishing between mezcal qualities!).

Oaxaca by a son of the community - The guide and driver were professional and personable. The information was personal and relaxed enough while fact-filled. Attention to the comfort and needs of the nine group members was good. Adrian brought lots of local knowledge and flavor to the tour. The mix of passengers was varied and rich enough to encourage lifelong connection. Thank you!
