Extraordinary Autumn
Everyone should experience Dia de los Muertos in Mexico at least once. It's a singular, stirring experience. Oaxaca's Day of the Dead is especially famous for artistic public expressions and private ceremony. We'll explore both, along with the nearby mountains, popular attractions and numerous artisan studios. A trip unlike any other.
Oaxacan Day of the Dead fills quickly, so reserve your place(s) early!
Often we'll offer a Day-After-The-Dead tour that starts right after 100,000 tourists leave, but Dia de los Muertos continues with local observances. Email Janie.e.cravens@gmail.com to discuss.
