Named one of the Top Ten Cities in the Americas by Condé Nast Traveler Magazine, Oaxaca, Mexico owes its fame to its lively traditions and colorful festivals, to its arts and crafts, generous hospitality and culinary genius, and to its colonial architecture and extensive ruins (not to mention its year-round spring-like climate).
This Oaxaca adventure is designed to coincide with major religious holidays and local celebrations. Welcome the spirits with delicious foods and paper puppets on the "Dia de los Muertos," the Day of the Dead. Celebrate the Nativity on "Noche Buena," the "Holy Night." Meet world-acclaimed artists at work in their studios and enjoy exclusive demonstrations. Try your hand at the traditional cuisine of Oaxaca during a private cooking class.
Hike backcountry canyon trails to waterfalls and forest overlooks. Bike country roads past farms, villages and churches. And top off your day with a cold beverage, a hearty local meal and a restful night's sleep at an exquisite hotel, resort, hacienda or villa.
Accommodations:
Nights 1 - 7: Hostal de la Noria.
Housed in a beautifully restored colonial mansion, Hostal dela Noria is a lovely 4-star hotel nestled 2 blocks from the main square in the heart of historic Oaxaca. Its beautiful lobby with hand carved wood furnishings, indoor patio, rooftop solarium and 52 individually furnished rooms have been featured in several interior decor magazines for their architectural design and attention to detail. Unpack once and enjoy the Hostal dela Noria's safe, central location and authentic colonial ambiance throughout your stay.
