Santiago Apoala Tour

We'll pick you up at 9 am at your hotel in Oaxaca and take you to the Mixtec region, which is characterised by its great natural diversity.

First we'll visit a local market. There you can have breakfast on your own and then we'll head for the village of Santiago Apoala. Did you know that this village is considered to be a Mixtec paradise? It won't take long to find out why.

As soon as we arrive, we'll take a walk to get to know the beautiful natural surroundings of Santiago Apoala. Its famous twin crags will be the first natural site that we encounter during our walk. After taking in these landscapes, we'll follow the hiking route to the Tutatnoho riverbed, where you can take a refreshing dip.

We'll continue our walk to the emblematic Santiago Apoala waterfall, a spectacular 30-metre high (98 feet) waterfall that will leave you open-mouthed. If you're a photography lover, you'll enjoy capturing some beautiful snapshots of this waterfall.

From the waterfall we'll drive to the centre of Santiago Apoala, where you'll have an hour free for lunch. After lunch we'll finally return to your hotel in Oaxaca, where we'll arrive at 8 pm.
