Come with me, an art historian, to explore the Urban Mythology and Colonial Art in Oaxaca’s Historic Center.
Guided by a compass that doesn’t point north, but to the past, and a vintage map marked with legends, symbols, and colonial architecture, we’ll begin an exploration through the city’s founding neighborhoods.
Along the way, you’ll discover secrets carved into temples and haunted alleyways, following the traces left behind by those who lived in Oaxaca centuries ago.
A unique experience for explorers of the invisible.
By the end of the tour you will have mapped the city in a historical way, eaten an ice cream and learned some new ways to taste mezcal.

Excellent historical and cultural tour with an expert guide

5.00We had a wonderful private tour of Oaxaca with Vero. I traveled with my in-laws and husband, and we could not have chosen better for our first day. Being a historian, Vero not only walks you around the city, but also immerses you in her past with a very enlightening and enjoyable explanation that gave us a complete panorama of the city, from the Zócalo to the traditional markets. What we appreciated most was his patience and kindness, adapting perfectly to the rhythm of our family. He showed us details that we would have missed on our own, such as the tree that gives rise to the name of Oaxaca and the history behind each temple. She is a very skilled professional who makes history come to life. Fully recommended if you are looking for an enriching and close experience.
An excellent guide, great tour — Veronica leads a lively, well-planned tour, especially for those who love history.

5.00I learned some wonderful legends and tales along with Oaxacan history while tracing the ordinal landmarks of Oaxaca City. Veronica has created beautiful and detailed illustrations of her stories. Churches of Santo Domingo, Soledad and the main Cathedral were the settings for these stories and I was delighted. Towards the end we stopped for ice cream and…of course, Mezcal! 😀
Loved attention and service d Vero

5.00We were able to see many churches in the area, get an overall sense of the city design, and a hear a little urban mythology. I was introduced to a fantastic place I otherwise would not have known about near the western edge of centro.
