A multi-ethnic cultural journey between past and present

This journey embraces the voices, living culture, and daily life of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec—a region rich in traditions where ancient peoples converge: Zapotecs, Zoques, Mixes, Huaves, and Mixtecs, all deeply connected to their Indigenous roots and ancestral heritage.

The warm, joyful, and welcoming people of the region will share with you their gastronomy, mysticism, crafts, music, dance, art, and unique celebrations. Throughout the journey, you will connect closely with everyday life and the many expressions of both the living present and the symbolic past. You will also have the opportunity to take part in local festivities.

Between celebrations, we will slow down and relax for a few days on one of the most beautiful beaches in the state of Oaxaca.
