5 Nights / 4 Days –
A Journey of Gastronomy & Culture

 

  • Travel to Oaxaca, where Mexico comes alive with color, flavor, and deep-rooted traditions.
  • Feel the true Latin America vibes in vibrant markets, music-filled streets, and warm local hospitality.
  • Discover living Zapotec & Mixtec culture, from ancient ruins to present-day traditions.

  • Connect with local communities for an authentic, meaningful journey beyond tourism, guided by perfect weather, nature, and art crafts.

Simple. Curated. Authentically Oaxaca.

 
Everything is taken care of—from airport pickup to unforgettable experiences. You just book the flight; we handle transportation, local guides, food experiences, and community connections.

Five days immersed in Oaxaca’s culture, gastronomy, arts, nature, and history. No rush, no stress—just the essentials that make Oaxaca unforgettable.

Stay in the heart of Oaxaca, where music, color, markets, and flavors are part of everyday life.

Thoughtfully selected experiences, meaningful meals, and real encounters. This is not a tour bus—it’s real travel, real people, and genuine connection with local communities.

This is a journey that goes beyond the postcard—from Monte Albán and living indigenous cultures to cooking together, hiking the mountains, and experiencing the creative, rebellious spirit of Oaxaca. Along the way, we make room not only for beauty and flavor, but also for honest conversations about the realities and challenges of life in Oaxaca today.
