My name is Tomas A licensed tour guide by the federal government of the country of Mexico with a background of being a native Zapotec from the state of Oaxaca. I started as a tour guide in 2010 in Bahias de Huatulco, located in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico right of the coastline of the Pacific ocean. I have spent the last five years scouting and creating unique experiences in the heart of Huatulco to ensure that your trip will be unforgettable. My experiences promote educational, cultural, rural and sustainable tourism as well as generate economic opportunity for the people of the region in which I work. My outings are not tours in the traditional sense but rather a day with a unique experience on the beach, waterfalls, turtle sanctuary or in the rural community. I offer to my clients an insider's view of Oaxaca, as a native Zapotec from Teotitlan del Valle who is also a certified professional tour guide. I combine my knowledge of history, culture and local communities with a deep respect for my Zapotec heritage and traditions. I bring to my clients closer to the real Oaxaca and I love sharing my personal perspective with them on trips through Bahias de Huatulco and local destinations in the cost line of Oaxaca state and in the central valley. Federal authorized Guide License license plates and I have a federal driver's license General knowledge of the Zapotec language First Aid Training None

Immerse yourself in Oaxacan culture on this day trip. Having picked you up from your hotel at the indicated time, we will visit Mitla Archaeological, one of the most important architectural regions in Oaxaca. Here we'll tour the ruins of a Zapotec village, which was once a seat of great learning in architecture, astronomy, and engineering. You'll admire the extraordinary decoration of the walls and explore the ornate halls which lead to the church itself. Also we will visit to the Temple of Santo Domingo de Guzmán one of the most beautiful examples of Baroque architecture. Continue on foot to one of the main streets in the city of Oaxaca. Our walking tour then continues around the cobbled streets of Oaxaca, until we arrive at the zólaco, the main square in the city. Sample local products including Mole Oaxaqueño, Tlayudas, Mezcal, Chocolate, Quesillo, and Chapulines in the 20 de Noviembre Market. You'll have free reign to make the itinerary your own, depending on your interests.
Tomas was an excellent guide, flexible, relaxed, and accommodating. He was very informative and enthusiastic. We had a great time touring with him. We asked for an aggressive full-day itinerary, touring both Monte Alban and Mitla in the same day. Tomas managed to include a stop for lunch at the off-the-beaten path Almu (not to be missed) and a tour in San Martin, Tilcajete to view the alebrije crafts. A perfect touring day!
Tomas is amazing! We had a wonderful experience and Tomas customized our tour based on what we had already done and still wanted to do in the area. He was so friendly, personable, and knowledgeable as well as passionate. He discussed the rich history and culture of Oaxaca in very accessible ways and helped us appreciate it more deeply and understand more of its layers and complexities. He did a wonderful job of telling us what to expect, the timing of things, etc. The places we went to were delightful and he was creative in adapting our itinerary and showing us some incredible spots we never would’ve seen otherwise! I would book with Tomas for anything in the future and am genuinely glad we met him.
Vicente made our trip an amazing adventure. With his expert Zapotec perspective , my husband and I discovered the secrets of Monte Alban and Mitla. The visit of small towns to learn about textiles and mezcal, was one of the best experiences we have had traveling around the world. We would recommend him to anyone who visits Oaxaca.
