Transfer to Oaxaca
The day begins with a transfer from Puebla to Oaxaca for a private tour of the city’s most significant landmarks. The first stop is the Temple and former abbey of Santo Domingo de Guzmán, considered one of the most remarkable colonial-era buildings in Oaxaca. The complex also houses the Museum of Cultures, which presents a wide collection of artifacts that reflect the diverse history of the region. Its architectural details and preserved spaces make it a central point of interest for understanding Oaxaca’s past. From there, the tour continues with a walk through the Zócalo, the main square of the city. This area has long been at the heart of daily life, surrounded by arcades, shops, and shaded spaces that offer a sense of Oaxaca’s character. The route then leads to the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption, a baroque-style structure dating back to the 17th century. Its stone façade and interior details represent the artistic expression of the period. The day concludes at the Benito Juárez Market, a space where commercial activity and traditional culture are experienced side by side. Visitors can see a variety of regional products, from crafts to food, making it an engaging end to the tour.
