​This small group tour has it all. We start with a walking tour of Historic Oaxaca. We will visit a weaving workshop, a backstrap weaving co-op to see how the local textiles are made. We participate in a hands on indigo dyeing workshop. We visit local markets, museums and archaeological sites. We travel to San Agustin Etla to learn about the papermaking process. A visit to a red clay pottery workshop and a mezcal tasting are also included. You will have enough free time to explore the galleries, shops and museums on your own.
