I  grew  up in Oaxaca and have lived here most of my life. In between I had the opportunity  to study economics  and languages.  Staying for 4 years outside Mexico gave me a new view from my country and a greater understanding and appreciation of the cultural richness of Mexico. I do enjoy sharing this knowledge with visitors and like to encourage conversation, and answer questions any one has about Mexico's history and actual life. I do believe that conveying accurate information to my guests is a very important factor to appreciate my land.  I am used to design and perform personal or private tours. My tours are flexible in duration and places visited. They can be adapted to meet your own personal needs or particular interest. My tours include transportation and since I am a fully licensed and registered guide, I have been granted a Permission for Tourism Transportation in Federal Highways issued by Mexico's Federal Government. Federal authorized Guide License: nº 02760 None.

Overview of your Oaxaca tour

This tour really lets you experience the rhythm and feeling of the city. It is not only the monuments that are beautiful but the human ambience that the city conveys. Most of the ancient city is build with the so called "Cantera Verde", a greenish stone of volcanic origin that reflect wonderfully the ambiance light making Oaxaca a very luminous city. Strolling around in the city center you will enjoy the colors, the colonial architecture and the history of this magnificent place. You will experience the liveliness of the pedestrian street, the magnificent baroque church of Santo Domingo the always busy city center and the central market *If you are traveling with a party larger than 5, please let me know and a customized tour will be sent to you with the right price

Your Oaxaca tour itinerary

The tour starts normally at the Cultural Center of Santo Domingo where we do visit the Church (if open) and then we continue on foot through the "Andador Turístico" (the pedestrian zone of Oaxaca) past the House of Cortes and then the City Center with the Cathedral. Next place it the market where we finish our tour NB. Mondays the Culture Museum is closed. We will try an other one in this case. Better chose an other day for this tour.
