Choose to eat, drink, dance, or watch a match of freestyle Mexican wrestling as the night unfolds.

Experience a gorgeous sunrise tour of Xochimilco, a system of canals built by the Aztecs and stop at a local farm to eat a traditional breakfast. Then it’s onwards to the Frida Kahlo Museum in the Coyoacán district to tour Casa Azul. Afterwards, journey on to Puebla and take a guided walk of the city to learn about the colonial architecture and culinary traditions of this lively place.

Join a local artist for a Talavera pottery demonstration to learn about the cultural and historical significance of this tradition. Enjoy the rest of the day as you wish; visit a colourful market in Puebla, indulge in local tastes on a food tour, or check out the Great Pyramid of Cholula.

It’s on to Oaxaca today, but first we’ll stop en route to learn about alebrijes at an artisan community. Enjoy a guided walk around the main square in Oaxaca before exploring the culinary scene with a local host. End the experience in a local family’s kitchen for a taste of some delicious Oaxacan dishes; it’s a day of food and culture.

Tour one of Mexico’s best known archaeological sites; the ruins of Mitla. Before returning to Oaxaca we’ll stop at a mezcal factory for a taste of Tequila’s cousin made from the agave plant. Enjoy a free evening in Oaxaca to lay low or head out for a fun night.

This morning is yours to enjoy. Walk among the plazas and pyramids of the Monte Albán ruins, or choose to visit the Museum of Oaxacan Cultures. Feeling hungry? Try learning how to make mole sauce; or people watch in a café in Oaxaca’s main square. In the afternoon, hop on a flight back to Mexico City where you can choose to enjoy a final night out with your group.
