Walking Tour of Oaxaca

Your adventure begins with a hotel pickup, from where we will set off to explore the vibrant city of Oaxaca, uncovering its hidden treasures.

Our first destination is the Temple of Santo Domingo de Guzmán, renowned for being one of the finest examples of baroque architecture in Mexico. Following this, we'll visit the Museum of the Cultures of Oaxaca (admission not included), located within the historic Santo Domingo convent, featuring an extensive collection of archaeological artifacts from the Mixtec and Zapotec civilizations.

Continuing our walking tour, we will navigate the cobbled streets of Oaxaca until we reach the zócalo, the main square of the city. Here, you'll find museums, artisan shops, and traditional restaurants that reflect the local culture.

Our exploration will take us into traditional markets, such as the Mercado Benito Juárez, where a variety of black clay pottery is available, or the famous "alebrijes," vibrant fantasy figurines originating from this region.

After a full day of discovering the wonders of Oaxaca, we will return to your hotels, arriving around 2 PM.
