5.00If you want to know how indigenous live and where they live this is a must. We love our experience in this hike. Surrounded by magnificent views. Not the easiest but doable. I enjoy our food very much. Just like I was eating at my abuelas home.
BOOK THIS EXPERIENCE!!

5.00Do not miss this opportunity to take this hike with Ivan! He is extremely knowledgeable and his love for Oaxaca is clearly evident. The hike is difficult at times but definitely doable - I would not miss the suspension bridge - pretty cool! Breakfast and lunch were amazing as well. It was quite cold up there so definitely dress in layers. Thanks again Ivan - until next year and another adventure!
Beautiful hiking excursion!

5.00Highly recommend this hiking excursion! Ivan is deeply knowledgeable about Oaxacan culture/surrounding nature, native plants, and his passion for the outdoors is contagious. He’s extremely organized and was very attentive to all the details to ensure we had a special experience. The sweet little comedor he took us to for breakfast and lunch before/after the hike was the perfect way to start and end our day in Cuajimoloyas. The hike itself was great — the views were excellent and Ivan identified noteworthy plants and birds!
Great hike in the mountains north of Oaxaca

5.00We loved this excursion. Ivan was professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable. He drove the comfortable van safely to the location of the hike in the Sierra Norte. The hiking route was beautiful and varied, including sections of dirt roads through open fields and a path through mixed conifer and hardwood forest. Along the way he showed and explained various medicinal plants and local birds including (lucky us) a beautiful red warbler. There were two places where we had to use hands as well as feet: one to ascend through a slit between two rock faces (looked worse than it was) and the other to get to the top of a crag with great views where we took a water break. The hike was a good length for us and the main challenge was the elevation, which left us out of breath occasionally. Breakfast and lunch before and after the hike were both in a village comedor--simple but tasty. Our fellow hikers were friendly and interesting. A great change of pace from the bustle of Oaxaca City
Great day hike in Zapotec village

5.00The whole day was a great adventure from start to finish, everything was run so smoothly. lvan was very knowledgeable and loved that he works with the local Zapoteco village to give us an even richer experience. Hike was a bit difficult but I had been sick, most hikers with elevation experience should be fine.
Wonderful

5.00I had used and liked this company for another experience, so I was confident in booking this one. This hike was moderate— the right amount of challenging, but plenty of time for rest and to enjoy the beautiful area/views/flora and fauna! Ivan was a great guide— he was punctual, patient and kind. He knows a ton about the area and was happy to share that information. I enjoyed how this tour included an additional local guide from the community and meals from a local kitchen. The food was filling and yummy, the extra support and knowledge from the guide was wonderful, and it was nice that this tour helps to support the community in these ways. Gracias for another great tour!
Wonderful day in the mountains!

5.00Ivan was a great host and tour guide, safe driver and all around great guy. I appreciate his knowledge and willingness to share the local flora and fauna, mushrooms and culture of the villages. The food was amazing and felt homey in the space, with a view as well. You can tell Ivan respects the land and the local people, including them in his tours and supporting the community. Hike was wonderful and just right, lots of different things to see while not being to strenuous of a trek. Cheers!
Great city escape!

5.00Really enjoyed the latest adventure with Ivan (third total this trip). Great opportunity to get out of the city and explore the mountains of Oaxaca. The day was a little rainy and overcast but the hike still ran smooth and was extremely beautiful. lvan is a great host, helps in every way possible to be sure all is well (had spare ponchos). Super special food stops, a good three hour hike (not too fast or slow -not too muddy) and lots of great stops for views, plant identification, bird calls, and simple bouldering. Great to see mountain village life, and efforts for sustainable tourism. Book this trip if you need less concrete and more green in your trip.

5.00Great day trip from Oaxaca! The hike was really unique, intermediate level, and really beautiful landscape. Ivan had great knowledge about the plants, mushrooms, animals, and birds. The food was amazing and was really nice to see a small village in the mountains.
Great authentic experience

5.00We had an amazing day with Ivan and felt very well taken care of. When we arrived up in the clouds at the start of the hike we were worried we would be trudging through the rain for 4 hours but every aspect of the day was great - delicious locally cooked food for breakfast and lunch and a very slow paced hike with some challenging parts but at no point did we feel out of our depth. The local guide who joined us was so knowledgeable about the plant life and she was so kind and calming. If you like hiking do this one.
