ein Tag im Leben eines zapotekischen Dorfes

Diese Erfahrung war sehr persönlich - Sie werden im Wesentlichen in Caesars eigener Familie willkommen geheißen, in seinem Haus, mit seiner Mutter, seinem Vater, seinem Bruder und zwei liebenswerten Hunden, Choco und Arena, und einer Katze namens Tita? . Er bot an, die Hunde wegzuschicken, aber wir lehnten ab. Wenn Sie auf der Suche nach rasanten Abenteuerreisen sind oder Angst haben, etwas zu verpassen, ist dies möglicherweise nichts für Sie. Wenn Sie ein intimes Verständnis eines Lebens haben und versuchen möchten, die Welt durch die Augen einer anderen Person zu sehen, dann ist dies eine außergewöhnliche Erfahrung.

Wonderful authentic experience. Cesar fielded our questions with thoughtful, articulate and insightful responses. His appreciation for sharing and conserving the Zapotec ancestral way of life is a warming to see in todays younger generation (fom historical references to modern day efforts to keep the land pure of pollutants, waste and contamination). Highly recommend this tour for those looking for a true authentic day in the life of a traditional Zapotec village that has yet to be fully engulfed with urbanization.

If you want to see what true Zapotec / Mexican village life is like, do not miss this day with César! Great guide; excellent English; down-to-Earth. He and his family are as warm and welcoming as can be. Understand, this is not a "Luxe" excursion. If you're someone who needs to go "glamping" instead of "camping" this is likely not for you. It's a long day in that the drive out is a bit over an hour. Breakfast (homemade chocolate and bread) and lunch (homemade tortillas with various toppings) are made in a traditional "comal" over an open wood fire. César's mother and the ladies preparing everything are charming and gracious. In truth, the tortillas were the best food experience we had in Oaxaca (we found some of the restaurants to be highly over-rated). We helped prepare the chocolate from the freshly-toasted beans (again, over on open fire). The visit to a small, locally run mezcal distillery was very interesting and worth seeing despite the fact we had already seen a larger operation on a different day. If you're fortunate enough to be in the village around noon, ask César if it's possible to go up to the old church's bell tower for the midday ringing! Can't recommend this excursion highly enough! Thank you, César & Family! Jesse & Mac
