Good Value

Good value with authentic/local guide. Extremely knowledgeable. Half a day good enough to explore the place. I would recommend a full day if you want an extensive survey of the site.

Excellent tour

Excellent tour, perfect length. Views were stunning and the history incredible. Our tour guide had expert knowledge. Just bring a hat and water and there is a small snack bar. They also had a small museum and gift shop

Afternoon at Monte Alban

Probably should wear a hat...maybe take some sunscreen. Also take plenty of water---there is a snack bar, but it closed before we finished sight seeing.

Great Experience

Our guide was very knowledgeable, made our experience great. Without our guide, the walk through the ruins would have been boring and it would have not made sense to us.

Wow! Well worth it!

Roberto was our excellent driver with Moses our excellent tour guide. Moses is fluent in Spanish and English. He is very knowledgeable and his explanations very informative. Moses also has a great sense of humour. A terrific half day tour which allowed us plenty of time to explore. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

A Half day well spent

As it’s so close to the city a half day is perfect to visit Monte Alban. Gabriel our guide from OaxacaTours was excellent in delivering to us the requisite information in English and encouraging us to ask questions. It’s only 25-30 minutes by minibus to the car park from the centre of Oaxaca. The 8:30am departure got us back to the city at about 12:15pm leaving plenty of time to do something else.
