Guelatao & Calpulálpam 2 Day Tour

Day 1: Oaxaca - Guelatao de Juárez - Calpulálpam de Méndez

At 10 am we'll pick you up from your hotel in Oaxaca and head to the Guelatao glass viewpoint for views of the Oaxaca Valley and Sierra Juárez mountains. We'll then visit a museum modeled on the house where Benito Juárez lived and the basilica where he was baptized. After this, we will continue to Calpulálpam de Méndez, a Pueblo Mágico known for its embroidery. You will have free time for lunch before we take a tour to learn about the town's culture, visiting houses, the market, and the San Mateo Apóstol temple.

We will conclude day one by heading to stone cabins for overnight accommodation.

Day 2: Calpulálpam de Méndez - Oaxaca

We'll start early with a visit to the UMA (Environmental Management Unit), a reserve for the protection of white-tailed deer, where you can photograph the animals. Then, we'll visit the Arroyo Cave, where we can walk barefoot to feel a closer connection to the earth. You will have 1 hour of free time for lunch in Calpulálpam de Méndez. After lunch, we'll visit the Traditional Indigenous Medicine Centre to learn about local plants and have options for body cleansing, massage, or sauna.

We'll return to your hotel in Oaxaca, expected arrival around 7 pm.
