New: Oaxaca Dia de Muertos 2024
Dia de Muertos: A Gastronomic and Cultural Adventure
Tuesday, Oct 29 - Sunday, Nov 3
Invite Only, Group of 12
A once-in-a-lifetime experience, Dia de Muertos in Oaxaca is like nothing you have experienced.
Oaxaca, Mexico
“A unique, fascinating experience! Drawn from Rodrigo’s extensive understanding of Mexican cuisine, art, history and superb local networks, we enjoyed a week of extraordinary food, art galleries, and expeditions to family-owned Mezcal makers, local textile artisans and Zapotec pyramids. We are fortunate to have had such a profound experience - a glimpse into the real Mexico!”

Oaxaca Experience, August 2023
Over four and a half days we will experience some of the most incredible art, crafts, food, drinks, and archaeological sites.
We will be participants, not observers.
Every day we will journey into a different theme. We will explore unopened art galleries and taste the richest and most sensual of foods at both the best restaurants in Oaxaca as well as with undiscovered chefs.
We will make our own mezcal in a family run mezcal operation and we will embed ourselves in the world of alebrijes and textiles. We will visit some of the most wonderful pyramids in the world, and of course, we will take part in the magical celebration of Dia de Muertos!
