Overview

In this tour you will be able to live the experience of sharing a day with my family in a Zapotec town in the central valleys of Oaxaca, this tour includes gastronomy, crafts, culture and history.
You will learn step by step about the elaboration of traditional chocolate with an ancestral technique, since for us this drink is very significant. We will also visit a couple of artisans of typical clothing and handmade footwear to see the products that they offer us. Mezcal occupies a very important place in Zapotec culture and ritual, so we will also visit an artisan mezcal distillery. Over lunch my mother will prepare fresh and healthy traditional food including tortillas that she makes in her kitchen.
