We tried lots of different foods we hadn’t tried before and learnt so much about the area too . Rachel has a very engaging persona and the time flew by. We would highly recommend taking this tour with Rachel "

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. "
"We loved our tour with Tanivet and are so glad we did it. She is extremely knowledgeable and gave us so much information about Oaxaca, its history, architecture, different neighbourhoods and food. "
"Tanivet took us to an area of Oaxaca that we had not explored and showed us the hidden gems. She explained the history of the city and added her perspective. She also answered questions that we had and gave some great suggestions for restaurants. We were 2 adults with an infant and she was very accomodating. Highly recommend!"
"We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour of Oaxaca with Tanivet! She is a sweetheart and gave us a lovely orientation to the city, and lots of helpful suggestions and advice. We stopped at a stand for a scrumptious lunch stop that we never would have known about or done on our own. We couldn’t have enjoyed our time with her more!"
"Tanivet was an exceptional guide for our tour in Oaxaca. She showed us wonderful sites, was extremely informative, and spoke beautiful English. Tanivet has a passion and very educated that made the tour so interesting and fun. She also made the tour based on our personal interest. Our friend had her as a guide a year ago and recommended her to us. I will make sure anyone who goes to Oaxaca knows about Tanivet and With Local tours. Thanks Bev Johl "

Great guide!
"Raquel is a great guide! She took us around Oaxaca giving us a lot of information about the city, its culture and people. We took the tour in Spanish and she made sure my mom felt included (my mom only speaks Portuguese). She made our experience in the city much more fun!"
