  Had a great time on this tour. Adriel was a very informative guide, and Leon and Carlos were great as well as our photographer and driver. We probably spent a bit too long at the textile shop, but otherwise I thought everything was very well timed. The tree in El Tule was so cool to see, Hierve del Agua was stunning and I learned a lot at Mitla. Of course, I enjoyed learning about Mezcal and sampling probably a little too much. I went on this tour on my own and had many new friends at the end of the day. Totally recommend this tour.

  First time visiting Oaxaca. Our tour was July 9. Our experience was excellent. Adriel was our guide, with Leon as the photographer and Carlos our designated driver. The crew’s friendly personality made this tour worth it. It was literally full day, 12 hr, tour. Worth every peso! Adriel was a wealth of information. He is fluent in Spanish and English. Our first stop was El Tule, the widest tree in the world. Because we left in the early morning, we arrived there before the other tours. We took pictures while it was empty. There is a minor fee to get up close to the tree. It’s worth it. You get to appreciate nature’s beauty. There are also children who can guide you around the tree and point out images you can see on the tree. Bring your imaginations. The images will surprise you. I don’t know if the children are bilingual, but they were very helpful in pointing out the images. They work for tips. Our day continued to a rug weaving business. It’s incredible seeing how tapestry is made. It’s art form passed down from generations. We learned all about how the natural dyes are produced using science, by grinding, plants, seeds, and insects. Once you see how they’re made you want to buy everything in their store so bring money $$$. Don't worry you will have plenty of time to shop. You will appreciate the time and labor that goes into every piece. Next stop Hierve El Agua, petrified waterfalls. Readers beware: Hierve means boiling however these are not hot springs. The water can be cold to lukewarm. Bring swimwear and a towel if you would like to enjoy one of the pools. You will have enough time to indulge in the pools and the scenery. They do have showers. It can get hot so bring sunscreen. The mountain View was breath taking. You could just hit by the pool and meditate. Mitla archeological site was our final historic stop. It’s smaller than Monte Alban; nevertheless it is rich in history. It was amazing to see the details in their designs. Lunch time! Lunch was ok. NOW TO THE BEST PART, the finale, the traditional Mezcal distillery: Valle Oaxaca distillery. So much to learn so little brain cell left after sampling the various products. They make a special Mezcal batch that should be illegal. WOW so good. Lastly, we all had to say goodbye. Carlos, our designated driver thank for keeping us safe. Adriel, our tour guide, thank you for your wealth of knowledge and make this experience UNFORGETABLE. Leon, thank you for your information on art and your photography BUT most importantly for continuing the party after our tour at Tacos Roy. I hope you have a memorable experience, just as I did.

  We saw the Tule Tree, a weaving store with folks explaining the process, Hierve el Agua, and a mezcal demonstration. Overall a good experience for the money. Full day. Kevin was a great guide with good explanations and photos.

  Went with Roberto, Miikey and Adrian. Everything was great. Lots of great info. Textiles being sold and wished I’d known prices on products. The textile stop did encourage tips so make sure you plan for that. Loved all the info shared from our guides and the mezcal tasting was a perfect way to end the trip.

  Miguel was a fantastic guide! If you're short on time, this tour is a great way to hit many of the must-see spots in the region. My personal highlight was Hierve El Agua, a breathtaking natural park with petrified waterfalls and cliffside mineral pools. We did the full loop hike (about an hour), then took a swim in the pools. I only wish we had a little more time there, it’s that magical.
