Guelaguetza Cultural All Included Guided Tour from Oaxaca
TOUR PROGRAM - Pick up between 10am and 11am - Visit Mitla archaeological site - Lunch - Loom workshop - Guelaguetza in El Tule community 5 pm - Drop off between 8pm and 9pm. DISCLAIMER We do not sell tickets to The Guelaguetza taking place in el Cerro del Fortín. In these days we will be mixing the tours that we already have organized with the most important party of the year in Oaxaca, visiting the Guelaguetza in its most original form. La Guelaguetza takes place in Oaxaca city, but there are other Guelaguetzas held in various villages. These more informal celebrations bear more resemblance to the way the festival was originally celebrated. This is not so much a show, but a time for people to come together and enjoy one another’s presence, their culture and food. The Guelaguetza is a festival of music, costumes, dances, and food, but it’s also a celebration of the mutual interdependence of people within a community.
