Experience Food tours in the best of
Oaxaca with Withlocals

"It was a great way to find out about the local history and the great local food. Sofia was a great guide! "

"We had an amazing afternoon with Sofia. A proud Oaxacan, Sofia gave us so much information, particularly about the food but also lots of general information about Oaxaca and the Oaxacan region. She took us to places we would have been too timid to go ourselves - we wouldn't have known what to order, and we don't speak Spanish. All the food we tried was delicious, and it was a lovely private tour with just the 2 of us and Sofia. It felt like a combination walking + food tour. We did it in the afternoon and only needed a piece of fruit for dinner that evening! Thank you Sofia for a wonderful afternoon. We enjoyed your company and appreciated your knowledge. Highly recommend."

"A must do introduction to local cuisine and so much more. Newcomers to any country or city should seek advice from a local if they plan on leaving their hotel. Raquel showed a depth of experience and her recommendations have set our group up for the entirety of our time in Oaxaca. We can’t thank her enough for the introduction and continued recommendations above and beyond the original tour! Highly recommend."

"Sofia gave us a great tour around Oaxaca and some lovely local food to try. A great introduction to the city and she recommended more places to us which we tried later in the week. Thank you Sofia! "

"Raquel was amazing! Knowledgable and adaptive to all our questions and interests. We met her on our first day in Oaxaca and she helped us plot out our remaining days in this wonderful city by giving us many recommendations and tips. She even followed up after the tour with a few extra things to do. Oh and the food we tried was so favourful and interesting! Thank you Raquel for helping us create a wonderful stay for us in Oaxaca!"

"Cristina did a wonderful job not just introducing us to the foods of Oaxaca, but also explaining the historical and cultural context. She was an invaluable source of tips for sightseeing, shopping and day trips. We greatly enjoyed our time with Cristina and would be happy to recommend her."

"Carlos was really fantastic. He's a a very lovely guy, and tailored everything to what we asked for as a group of three, including one 11 year old and one vegetarian. Would highly recommend you book with him. "

"Alejandro is very organized and knowledgeable. We relied on his tour selections which were packed together neatly. Great way to start a trip to Oaxaca. Thanks for the Experience and information. ✌️"

"I highly recommend booking Carlos for this tour! He took us to some great places for traditional and tasty Oaxaca treats. We had actually already spent 3 days in Oaxaca before we did this trip and we were a little worried we’d already tried the food and wouldn’t experience anything new, but we were so wrong! There were so many hidden places we wouldn’t have known about and luckily Carlos was there to show them to us. He was extremely knowledgeable about all everything Oaxaca, both food and culture. Really enjoyed this experience and would 100% do it again. "

"We were very interested in a foodie tour, but not the usual standard “agenda”. We gave our specific requests to Carlos and he took them and crafted a customized tasting that was spot on. From the small (quiet) local Mercado to an authentic restaurant and ending with a unique chocolatier, we felt taken care of and our requests were respected and honored. Carlos also shared historical, cultural and artistic tidbits as we walked around."
