- We start in Teotitlán del Valle, here you will discover the richness of Zapotec textile art, where artisans use sheep wool and natural dyes such as cochineal grain, indigo and other pigments extracted from plants and minerals. You will see how, in traditional pedal looms, they transform these materials into mats and textiles full of color, history and ancient symbolism. You can accompany each stage of the process, from washing and dyeing the wool to the final fabric. In addition, you will have the opportunity to take a unique handcrafted piece, a memory that captures the living essence of this Oaxacan culture. (pass by)

Hierve el AguaExplore Hierve el Agua, a spectacular natural site where mineral-rich waters have formed petrified waterfalls and natural pools. Surrounded by a stunning landscape of mountains, this place is ideal for connecting with nature, enjoying hikes and capturing unforgettable views. A must stop for those looking for natural beauty in Oaxaca.
-
Santiago Matatlanstop at an artisan mezcal factory to discover the care and passion behind each bottle. You’ll know how agave is selected, which can take up to 25 years to mature, and how it cooks slowly in stone ovens, which gives it that characteristic smoky flavor. Then you will see the traditional grinding process with the tahona, and how the must naturally ferments in wooden or stone tubs. Finally, distillation in copper or mud stills preserves the unique aromas and nuances that make mezcal an Oaxacan gem. By sampling its different varieties, you will understand why this distillate is so much more than a drink – it is bottled history, tradition and culture to share.
- You will have the opportunity to meet Mrs. Dalia, one of the great traditional cooks of Oaxaca, guardian of ancient recipes and techniques that have been passed down through generations. You’ll experience the unique experience of observing and participating in the artisanal elaboration of chocolate, from roasting beans to grinding, while listening to the stories and cultural significance behind this millennial process. Then, you can enjoy a home-cooked meal prepared with fresh and local ingredients, where each bite reflects the love, dedication and authentic essence of Oaxacan cuisine. This encounter is much more than a meal; it is a deep connection with the tradition and heart of Oaxaca. (pass by)
