Thinking about exploring it by yourself could be challenging considering its extension -over 16 hectares-, and not talking about finding the best spots and stalls to discover the immense variety of food and drinks this market has to offer. During this tour that is exactly what we´ll be doing, walking all around eating and drinking its delicious food and drinks and also visiting the craft areas where local Maestros and Maestras Artesans offer their products directly from their workshops

In the latests years there has been an increase of tours, chefs, influencers & personalities that come to the markets of Oaxaca with extraction and exotization purposes.
