You step into Oaxaca on a six hour private tour. At Mayordomo you breathe the warm aroma of cacao and taste silky chocolate on your tongue. In the artisan town you see clay spin on a wheel and hear soft taps shaping pottery. In San Agustín Etla you feel the cool stone floors of a mezcal palenque. A guide explains the slow roasting of agave before you sip smoky spirit from a clay cup. The journey ends in Etla where wool and cotton weave through the looms of family workshops. Threads slide rough in your hand while colors brighten under the valley light. Each stop reveals craft, flavor, and memory shaped by tradition.
