Get ready to discover some of the best places in Oaxaca State. Start with a visit to Santa Maria el Tule, home of one of the most extraordinary natural beauties, including the giant tree (The Tule Tree), with a height of 40 metres and a diameter of more than 50 metres. It is said it's more than 2000 years old, which makes it perhaps one of the biggest and oldest living things in the world. You'll then make a little stop in the small town of Teotitlan del Valle, famous for its homemade textiles.

One of the day's highlights will be a visit to Mitla, which means Place of the Dead in Nahuatl. Mitla used to be a ceremonial centre of the Zapotecs, and it's now famed for its outstanding mosaics on its walls, a unique style of decorating in Mesoamerica.

You'll continue the excursion with an adventurous ride to Teotitlan, where the famous wool rugs are dyed with natural pigments such as cochineal grana and made by hand by artisan families.
