No Lupita no party ❤️💯 - It was an incredible day! Lupita gave us an authentic and truly fun experience. She is extremely professional, yet at the same time it feels like spending time with a friend. I highly recommend contacting her if you want to enjoy a unique and unforgettable experience. It’s a moment that will remain forever in our hearts and minds. Thank you, Lupita — we can’t wait to see you again soon!

Mezcal lovers, look no further! - You won’t get a more authentic experience than this. Lupita is a mezcal expert, her life has been dedicated to it. The day I spent with her was the highlight of my Mexico trip, a truly magical experience. She took me to some incredible places off the grid which you’d never be able to get to yourself, she has long standing relationships with quality producers and highly skilled artisans, this is not your average commercial tour, it’s a truly original experience so do not hesitate to book, you’ll be in the best hands!

Best Mezcal Tasting Day Ever! - Lupita created an amazing experience for us. She's incredibly knowledgeable, punctual, a great communicator and extremely kind. She took us to a stand deep in the market at Tlacolula de Matamoros for breakfast then on to tastings at Peloton de la Muerte and Grulani. We finished the day with an amazing meal at a little known spot. Definitely the highlight of our trip!

Oaxacas most valuable guide! - You can’t go wrong with Lupita, she has a consummate knowledge of all things Oaxaca, she’s extraordinarily well connected and knows all the best experiences possible. I’ve been down several times over the last several years and she is an indispensable part of each in every trip.

Fantastic tour of Oaxacan craft, food, and countryside - We had an absolutely fabulous day with Lups! We started with a breakfast at a small neighborhood spot for memelas that would have never known about without a guide, then headed out to visit two different mezcal palenques for tours and tasting. We'd chosen to see two that were each run by women - in each case spending time with the mezcalera, watching the process, and tasting different stages of production. It was an education and completely changed the way I understood mezcal and its history in the region. And of course, we had great opportunities to taste and purchase unique product. We then ate lunch at a restaurant that has since earned a well-deserved Michelin star where they were making mole over a fire and got to watch that process. We ended with visits to a ceramics workshop and an alebrije workshop. All the time, Lups gave context and shared, translated as we needed, and introduced us to the various craftspeople. My wife and I still talk about this day as the highlight of our 10 days in Mexico. It was a truly inspiring and full day.

Best tour ever. - Lupita gave us the tour of a lifetime. She customized it to our needs and wishes. She took us to an amazing place for lunch and knew just what to order. She was kind and pleasant and very knowledgeable about Mezcal. I only wish we had more time there so we could take more tours with her! Highly recommend, 10/10.
