Highlights
  • Zona Arqueologica de Monte Alban - On an immense esplanade at 1,940 meters above sea level, is this area formed by a large rectangular Plaza surrounded by palaces, temples, shrines, a ball court and tombs. It is part of the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.\n\nPlease note that during the pandemic period we may have to wait our turn to enter the archaeological site. The waiting time can be up to 1.5 hours without availability of bathroom or restaurant.\n- San Antonio Arrazola - In this place, the ingenuity of the artisans is reflected in the wood carvings of the copal, creating a fantastic zoology that is exhibited and sold in the own homes of the craftsmen with the name of alebrijes.\n- Ex Convento de Cuilapam de Guerrero - Majestic monastery convent of the sixteenth century where the Open Chapel stands out, the church with an unfinished basilica floor and the Ex-convent. General Vicente Guerrero was shot here.\n- Dona Rosa Studio - Its main attraction is the black clay pottery made by local artisans, achieving pieces of extraordinary beauty, with technique of draft and burnished.

Family friendly tour - Great full day tour. We travelled with 4 children from 3 years to 6 years old. They loved Monte Albán and also pottery demonstration. The lunch stop had a wide variety of food to cater for our young kids too. I would definitely recommend this tour!
