Immerse yourself in Oaxaca’s vibrant artistry. Witness black pottery crafted in San Bartolo Coyotepec, explore colorful textiles in Santo Tomás Jalieza, marvel at whimsical alebrijes in San Martín Tilcajete, and admire breathtaking clay sculptures by the legendary Maestro José García Antonio.
We enjoyed one and a half days with Tanivet guiding us around Oaxaca. She is very knowledgeable about the city and the small villages and artisans. She knew just where to take us based on our interests and was a delight to be with!

10 out of 10!
Our guide, Sophia, and driver, Saul, were absolutely amazing!! They made the entire day so memorable, and were so accommodating in every way and really made this trip special. I highly recommend both of them for any tour. They really were the best.

That was FUN!
Okay with all the guiding services available you got to pick one. We are so happy we picked with locals in Tanivet.
From pickup at our lodging location through touring artisan villages and craft shops through a wonderful Empanada lunch and then the ride home could not have been better.
We have been there and done that.
This tour exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend.

Tanivet is a marvelous guide!
We are so fortunate to have chosen Tanivet to guide us on our tour of Monte Albán. Not only is she personable and an excellent English speaker, she has a truly unique perspective as a result of her father’s work—helping to preserve the natural treasure that is Monte Albán. Tanivet is highly recommended.

Great tour
Highest rating. Guide and driver were personable, knowledgeable, flexible. Took us to a wonderful alebrije workshop that was not on the itinerary and really out of the way just because we asked. Great time, well worth it.

A fabulous day with Tanivet!
Tanivet was a wonderful guide and Enrique was a great driver! Tanivet's knowledge of the region was on full display and we thoroughly enjoyed exploring Tule, Yagul, and Hierve el Agua—a tour that Tanivet customized just for us :) She even went so far as to bring us towels for Heirve el Agua, which was very appreciated. Highly recommend Tanivet!

Tanivet and her colleague were incredibly kind, funny, and full of fascinating insights.
This experience offers a unique opportunity to see highly regarded artisans at work. You’ll savor delicious traditional food cooked over an open fire, take in the passing landscapes, and gain a deep appreciation for the time, love, and effort poured into every part of this rich and meaningful day.

Tanivet is an Excellent Guide
We recently had two separate tours with Tanivet to Hierve el Agua and to Monte Albán. They were both excellent tours. When learned a lot about the Zapotec and Mixtecos people in the Oaxaca. We would hihgly recommend Tanivet for any tours in that area.
