"We made a great decision in hiring Tanivet to help us explore a colorful neighborhood, Jalatlaco, near our first night in Oaxaca. After getting to our hotel from the airport, Tanivet met us at our hotel. We spent 2+ hours touring the Jatatlaco barrio. She shared with us her enthusiasm and love for Oaxaca City. Her English was excellent. She provided historical background information about her city. She suggested places to eat and foods along the way (at our request). She exhibited a friendly an warm personality. Her tour was first class in every respect. Our group of six adults recommend her 100% Thanks, Tanivet!!"

"Our group of four spent two days with Sofia in and around Oaxaca. We started with a culinary walk through Oaxaca. Sofia introduced us to so many great food experiences, in the food capital of Mexico. She knew how to find the hidden gems and we loved every minute of it. She also gave us some restaurant and shopping recommendations, which we took advantage of. On the second day, she toured us through the region, and again showed us the personal side of things. We really enjoyed our hikes, talking about nature and the region’s history. We ended with a fun mezcal tasting at a distillery she had known since a kid because it was her grandparents’ favorite. We really appreciated the personal and friendly tour Sofia gave to us and highly recommend booking with her! "

"We had a wonderful time with Carlos. He took us to a more quiet and local part of Oaxaca, which was great! We tasted really nice foods and even did a chocolate tasting. Highly recommend the tour and choose Carlos ! "

"It was a great way to find out about the local history and the great local food. Sofia was a great guide! "

"We thoroughly enjoyed Tanivet and her knowledge of Oaxaca City. She met us at our hotel and showed us areas we never would have seen otherwise. Our tour was three hours and because she said it’s impossible to cover everything in three hours, she pointed out areas for us to explore on our own time. We loved it!"

"We had an amazing afternoon with Sofia. A proud Oaxacan, Sofia gave us so much information, particularly about the food but also lots of general information about Oaxaca and the Oaxacan region. She took us to places we would have been too timid to go ourselves - we wouldn't have known what to order, and we don't speak Spanish. All the food we tried was delicious, and it was a lovely private tour with just the 2 of us and Sofia. It felt like a combination walking + food tour. We did it in the afternoon and only needed a piece of fruit for dinner that evening! Thank you Sofia for a wonderful afternoon. We enjoyed your company and appreciated your knowledge. Highly recommend."

"A must do introduction to local cuisine and so much more. Newcomers to any country or city should seek advice from a local if they plan on leaving their hotel. Raquel showed a depth of experience and her recommendations have set our group up for the entirety of our time in Oaxaca. We can’t thank her enough for the introduction and continued recommendations above and beyond the original tour! Highly recommend."

"We did a walking tour with Raquel around Jalatlaco, Oaxaca. She was brilliant, knowledgeable, enthusiastic, understood culture, people and the natural world. We learned so much and came away in awe of Raquel. She is also great company and very kind. Definitely recommend. "

"We had an amazing time with Tanivet! She was excellent at communicating with us from the moment we made our booking, and once we met in person, she made us feel welcome right away. Our first stop was Monte Albán. Tanivet’s deep knowledge and fascinating stories made for a far richer experience than if we had visited on our own. Afterward, we visited the town of Arrazola, where we met the talented artisans behind the beautiful alebrijes. At our request, Tanivet took us to a wonderful family-owned restaurant for lunch. The spread of traditional dishes—including moles, memelas, sopas, postres and fresh tortillas—was absolutely delicious and did not disappoint! Our tour concluded at a mezcal distillery, which was the perfect way to end the day. Tanivet took such great care of us throughout the entire trip. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Oaxaca! "

"Sofia gave us a great tour around Oaxaca and some lovely local food to try. A great introduction to the city and she recommended more places to us which we tried later in the week. Thank you Sofia! "
