1 of 10
This is an illustrative route, rather than a fixed itinerary. The final route, stays and experiences are shaped around your dates and priorities.
Start in Mexico City for the Zócalo, museums and food neighbourhoods. Break the journey to Oaxaca in Puebla for its historic centre and local dishes. Oaxaca then has enough time for Monte Albán, the markets, a cooking day and a mezcal-producing village if you want one. We keep restaurant choices flexible because tables and opening days change.
What this journey makes room for
- ◆Mexico City museums and markets
- ◆A Puebla stop on the way south
- ◆Monte Albán and Oaxaca markets
- ◆A cooking or mezcal day
