    We'll have a phenomenal experience learning about wool rugs, from how they're painted with natural colors to how they're woven on pedal looms. Here you can exercise your coordination by practicing on a real loom to make rugs. You'll also discover all the secrets our ancestors used to paint sheep's wool and make textiles using plants, animals, and bark.

    We will take a tour between the most emblematic aisles of the market of Tlacolula, it is magical to be able to live with the renters of the market. Here we will try different pre-Hispanic drinks and food (chapulines, dare you try them?). If your reservation is on a Sunday, we will visit the oldest tianguis in the valley, take a tour of the entire tianguis and see how people use this day to share, market and exchange their products.

    And that is an Oaxacan experience without the delicious Mezcal. Here you will learn all about its distillation process to feel like a true master rocker, but above all, you will be able to try more than 15 different types of wild agaves. Cuixe, tobalá, Mexican, wild boar, among others. We will also visit the agave field so you can see how they are sown. After learning the whole process of mezcal and having tasted all the types of agave that are there, it is time for lunch, where we will taste a traditional Oaxacan food, which I am sure you will enjoy a lot, will be accompanied by flavor water of the day and guess what, more mezcal!
