Oaxaca Route of Crafts

8 hours

Easy

Discover the cultural heart of Oaxaca through a unique tour of its most emblematic artisan communities. In this experience you will meet master artisans, ancestral techniques, and artistic expressions that have been passed down from generation to generation.

You will visit workshops where the famous alebrijes are born, admire the elegance of black pottery, be surprised by the delicate technique of the backstrap loom, tour traditional markets to acquire handmade typical clothing, and see textile pieces of very high quality recognized internationally.

Each stop is an opportunity to connect with the local culture, support the communities, and take home authentic, unrepeatable, and historic works.

Thursday we visit the Zaachila market and Friday Ocotlan
