So Super Glad We Did This / Muy Feliz
Lauretta_P
, Mar 2022
This was a perfect artistic workshop experience. Our facilitator Ceasar was helpful, easy, great to be around, and did a great job translating to English. Visiting the artisan family felt unique and special. We learned some history, saw the production process hands on in an intimate way, and got to paint alebrijes. That was artistic and meditative and I think anyone regardless of what artistic level they are at would have a great time. The family is part of a lineage, and in a strong way how the tradition started. I super highly recommend this experience.
A must do! Wow

A must if you're in Oaxaca - Best tour

I can't recommend this tour highly enough. Took this trip on my 3rd visit to Oaxaca and have taken a lot of tours with various companies but none compare to this. Well coordinated, excellent communication from the moment you book, really personal feel and a true taste of authentic Oaxaca delivered by guides who are clearly very passionate about what they do and responsible tourism. I hope next time I visit to take this tour again and look forward to any other trips you add to your itinerary as was such a great experience. Thank you

Immersion dans une famille d’artisans

, Feb 2020
Belle immersion dans une famille d’artisans depuis 3 générations. Le père fait une magnifique démonstration de sculpture pendant que mère et fils peignent. Puis vient le temps de peindre votre propre alebrije, et justement, vous avez tout le temps nécessaire avec tout le matériel et le choix de votre figurine.
