"We were enlightened and delighted with Tanivet’s knowledge and stories of her hometown, Oaxaca. With her well honed experience and insights, we enjoyed a new and interesting side to this amazing city. "
"We booked the Monte Albán excursion with Tanivet and she was amazing! Wow! Her personal history of spending so much time at the ruins as a child made our experience feel really special. It was like getting a personal tour with someone who knew the grounds intimately and had even been inside some of the tombs and tunnels where they no longer allow people to go. Tani even gave advice to other tourists there who had questions. She was so helpful!
Tanivet let us customize our tour by offering a couple options for our last stop.
Tanivet and Enrique made the entire day memorable. Enrique is an excellent driver and the ride was very comfortable.
It was a truly enjoyable and educational day - we learned SO much from Tanivet!

"We did the Culinary Experience with Raquel and we absolutely loved it. Not only does Raquel know a lot about the foods that are an important part of the Oaxacan culture but she has relationships with many of the vendors. She chatted with them as friends and treated everyone with respect.
We tried crickets (not required!) and mole sauces plus so many delicious dishes I can’t remember the names of them all.
Raquel was easy to talk to, and loves the culture and people of Oaxaca. Her enthusiasm was infectious and made us want to know more. She also gave us great recommendations on restaurants and other must-see cultural sites.
Book this tour early in your Oaxacan visit so you can take advantage of all the other places Raquel recommends!"
"From the moment we met Raquel, her passion and enthusiasm for her ancestral home was apparent. With gentle enthusiasm she shared her vast knowledge and experiences here in Oaxaca. We were fortunate to have Raquel for two tours - a highlight of Oaxaca and a food tour. Raquel accepted our limitations and planned our excursions accordingly. Her knowledge is vast and with her pleasant disposition, she made our time in Oaxaca more memorable. "
"My wife and I had a terrific evening food tour with Raquel eating some wonderful local street food (the ice cream, mole and crickets were definite highlights), but more importantly meeting some amazing local folks and learning about Oxaxa from a different non-touristly perspective.
Spending time with Raquel was truly special as she not only is deeply immersed in the culure of Oaxaca but also leverages her global experiences that help create the space for stimulating and insightful conversations.
The night ended perfectly with an amazing mezcal in a cool local mezcaleria!
We would highly recommend a tour with Raquel - you will not be disappointed!"
"Carlos was really friendly and happy to tailor the tour to our requirements, notably that my wife is vegetarian (whilst I am not). She always had something to try, and I didn’t feel that I missed out on anything either. He was also very good at highlighting where something that looked vegetarian wasn’t technically, so that she could make her own decision depending on how strict she was (e.g. a tamales where the dough was made with lard).
He clearly has a lot of knowledge of the places to eat, and the shop / stall holders who seemed to know him, and we definitely ate in places and tried things that we wouldn’t have done without his guidance.
He was informative about so many things - not just the food we tried, but also about the city and wider food culture. He gave us several recommendations for some restaurants to try, as well as craft places to check out when we mentioned about some souvenirs / gifts we wanted to buy.
Something else that was very pleasant was that we didn’t leave the tour feeling completely stuffed - just nicely full. We have previously done a food tour in another country where we were struggling to manage some of the later tastings, as we were being given really big portions. Carlos managed to fit in more than 10 tastings, but several were small snacks, so it was never too much."

Fun and Informative Tour With Sofia
"We really enjoyed our 3 hour Oaxaca city tour with Sofia. She was personable and well educated. She was passionate about her home town and took us to places that we will definitely revisit. It was the perfect tour for 1st time visitors and we highly recommend Sofia as your tour guide."
"I had a wonderful time with Tanivet as we walked through the different neighborhoods of Oaxaca. She was knowledgeable, interesting, had a great sense of humor, and was really fun to spend time with. I highly recommend Withlocals. This is the third time that I’ve done a Withlocals tour and all of them have been amazing. "
