Strolling around the streets of Oaxaca will open your appetite, and so we will make a stop in La Cosecha Market. It is open air and very clean as opposed to the main city markets and was setup to showcase the food from different regions of the state, which you can choose from the different vendors that surround a common eating area.
To finish the day, we will drive to a nearby community where you will dive in the Guelaguetza event, where you will be able to watch the traditional festival, filled with dances and stunning textiles from different Oxacan regions.

La Guelaguetza is celebrated in Oaxaca City, but similar events are also held in various villages across the valley. These more casual Guelaguetzas likely reflect the festival’s original spirit more closely. Rather than a performance, it is a time for people to gather, enjoy each other’s company, and celebrate their culture and cuisine. The Guelaguetza spans several hours, with attendees coming and going throughout the event. It is a vibrant festival featuring music, costumes, dances, and food, and it also honors the community’s mutual interdependence.
During the Guelaguetza days, we will showcase the most beautiful and significant sites and festivities in Oaxaca. Our tours will be combined with the year’s most important celebration in Oaxaca, allowing visitors to experience the Guelaguetza in its most authentic form.
