Description

Our day will begin with delicious coffee to give us energy for the adventure that awaits! Then we will jump in the van and drive to the area of Xoxocotlan, where the Salgados family will welcome us to their silver jewelry workshop. For over three generations, the Salgados have elevated Oaxacan jewelry design to a national level. From Xoxo we will head further down the road to San Martin Tilcajete, where we will visit the only workshop in Oaxaca where women are in charge of crafting Alebrijes. They explain and demonstrate the process, enlightening us on what it means to be a woman in a predominately male-run creative field. In the same town, we will stop at “Almuu,” a traditional comedor set in a garden surrounded by plants. Sample a family style lunch. Our last stop of the day is just a few minutes away in the town of Ocotlan, where a maestro sombrerero awaits us. Here we will learn the craft of hat making and you’ll have the opportunity to find a sombrero that is just for you.

Fun and fascinating!

I have known Yesi for many years now and can highly recommend her knowledge of the tourist regions of Oaxaca as well as her professionalism as a trained guide. Her English is impressive, clear and easily understood. Her personality is effusive and fun, and she’s always up for a great adventure. As a tour guide she’s reliable and energetic, and her tours in the area of traditional silver jewelry and hat making are unique in Oaxaca, important facets of the local culture that are often overlooked by more traditional tours.

Yesi is the very best of Oaxaca (and will show you the very best too!)

I highly recommend booking an experience with Yesi. Her passion for Oaxaca and introducing you to the very best the region has to offer is unparalleled. She knows the best of everything (and everyone!) -- food vendors, artisans, and other locals, like her, who are truly exemplary at what they do and eager to show off what makes Oaxaca such a rich and dynamic place to explore. I particularly liked how she seeks to elevate other Oaxacan women-owned and family-operated businesses who are, like are her, preserving and sharing their rich traditions and sacred places. Yesi is a fantastic communicator, punctual, and, most importantly, generous and kind. Everyone she works with is top-notch, too. You're in the very best hands when you're with Yesi!
