DISCLAIMER We do not sell tickets to The Guelaguetza taking place in el Cerro del Fortín. La Guelaguetza takes place in Oaxaca city, but there are other Guelaguetzas held in various villages throughout the valley. These more informal celebrations of the Guelaguetza probably 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 lasts for several hours and here people come and go throughout the presentation. 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. In these days of Guelaguetza we will be showing the most beautiful and important places and festivities in Oaxaca, 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.

In collaboration with Mezcal Dainzu, we invite you to explore the history and landscapes of Santiago Matatlán, the Capital of Mezcal. On this excursion, traditions come to life through the Santiago Hernández family, who for generations have preserved the craft of agave distillation —since the mid-19th century—, when mezcal was undervalued and nearly forbidden. Doña Octavia and Don Leoncio —fifth and fourth generation mezcal masters— along with their son Carlos, welcome us to their agave fields, with stunning views, to toast with nature and show us the artisanal production process in their rustic distillery. During the tasting, you'll discover the wide range of flavors that wild agaves have to offer. We'll also share some mezcales prepared especially for community celebrations.
